Title: looking for Esther E E Rayson
Post by: ibbotson on Monday 07 June 10 18:05 BST (UK)

Looking for Esther Ethel Estavan Rayson (nee de Woolfson) born USA 1860. She married a Arthur John Rayson in England and had the following children in England, Arthur W. born 1886, Ethel E. born 1890. They were still in England in 1891, but according to the Family Search database she had another child Florence Gertrude born Aug 1893 in St Joseph Algoma Ontario so I'm assuming they emigrated to Canada sometime after 1891/2. Any help in locating them would be appreciated.

Looks like they travelled on the Circassian from Liverpool to Quebec on 21st May 1893.

Just found a message about this couple posted to Rootsweb in 2005.  Would seem that someone found them in the US 1900 census.  Maybe someone could help you with that?
