Immigrants & Emigrants - General / Re: Rejected by US Authorities in 1913
« on: Saturday 21 June 25 00:46 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I agree with PB. I also believe that the Sieradski's were not rejected. Pages 1 and 2 of the manifest are separate pages. The 2 people on the 2nd page (names hard to read) that were rejected are a male age 35 and female age 11, both born Russia under section 11. Section 11 is likely public charge, the immigrant may not be able to support themselves, or it was a health issue, contagious disease.

Yes, both of them so sad.

I think this is them on the 1911 Census in Kamloops. They are 4th and 5th from the bottom.
Charles age 40, and Flora age 32.
Click on the image and then click to enlarge. Ignore that it is for Francis Rushton. It was a bad transcription and that was the way I found them.

And then in 1931 census, on Seymour St. Kamloops which matches Flora's death cert. The very
bottom of the page. They were transcribed as Delger.
Charles age 61, and Flora 54. It says Charles is retired. Health issues perhaps to retire at 61.

Hi,

From British Columbia archives,

The 1907 marriage, Flora gives her parents as Robert and Mary Ann.

The 1948 death cert. for Flora. There is no next of kin listed.

The 1938 death cert. Charles is only an index.

Slightly improved handwriting this time.

There is a baptism Unitarian Messiah church in 1873 for Catherine Estella Goodwin Baird, father
Charles Robert Baird, brewer, mother Catherine Goodwin, b.12 Nov. 1872, baptised 19 Mar. 1873.
Both parents sign and the minister is again Cordner.  Guess he had some time to improve his cursive. :)

Sadly there is a Kings, New York death record for Catherine E.G. Baird, age 3, death date 30
June 1875.

Wow, nice one lanarman. Now knowing that, looking at Charles' signature, I can see a d.

Charles Robert Baird marries Catherine Goodwin in 1875 at the Montreal Christian Unitarian
church.

Scroll to the bottom and click on their names for details.

I think this is the family now in Brooklyn, New York, USA in 1875 with 1 more child. It was
transcribed as Baried,
Baried, Charles age 35, clerk b. Scotland
Baried, Catherine age 35, b. Canada
Baried, Mary age 8
Baried, Isabella age 6
Baried, Thomas age 4
Baried, Catherine age 2

That handwriting....ugh. Well done lanarman.

The baptism is in the records of the Unitarian Messiah church in Montreal in 1871.
