Title: Matilda and Frank Holdsworth emigrated 1913
Post by: lindaangus on Wednesday 18 August 10 20:36 BST (UK)

Thanks to help from Roots chat friends I now know that my 2 X Great Aunt Matilda and her husband Frank Holdsworth emigrated to Ontario, Canada two days after their marriage in 1913 in Billericay, Essex, England.

Matilda was 45 when she married and Frank was 30 years old.  They both worked in the workhouse in Brentwood.

Their address in Ontario was Horton Street, London, Ontario.

Can anyone find if they had any children there?

Thanks

Linda

If they stayed in Ontario, birth records will not be available as they are protected by privacy law (100 years on births). It seems unlikely they had any children though if Matilda was 45 at the time of her marriage.

Woodland Cemetery, London has a Frank Holdsworth as well as an Albert and Rosina with the same Reference #MX-LC-152-1

You may be able to get more info from the cemetery if this is your Frank Holdsworth.

It appears that you have more than one link looking for info. It is much easier for us to help you find info if we know what you already have instead of posting duplicate info. If you could link you posts it would be helpful.
