I believe that would indicate they planned to go on to Budapest at the time of the sailing.

Immigrant and Emigrant Resources & Offers / Re: Rejected by US Authorities in 191S
« on: Friday 20 June 25 23:24 BST (UK) »
Personally, I don’t think your Sieradski family was rejected by the USA? I believe it would be the 2 passengers found at the end of the passenger list below the statement that reads rejected by US authorities?
About the Sieradskis….
Under the column on the passenger list that asks country of which citizen or subject it looks like Austria.
Under the next column that asks country to which through or return tickets are held it looks like they indicate Budapest.
Under country of last permanent residence they have USA.
They indicate that final destination is a foreign + (word I can’t read).
So to me it looks like they had spent some time in the USA? Anyway, food for thought.
I haven’t been able to find them on a USA-bound passenger list.

Some food for thought…
1912 passenger arrivals (image on ancestry).
Jeanie Allison 25 married, destiation London Ontario, going to husband (no name given but has possible occupation an Iron + something worker?), Presbyterian.
And Helen age 2 - doesn’t match ages given later but…
The two arrived St John New Brunswick 06 Feb 1912 which would have given Jeanie just about enough time to travel to London by train to marry David Allison on the 9th of Feb as a single woman.
This looks like David in the 1911 census indexed as Albinson (courtesy of Library and Archives Canada). He is living with his brother Alexander and all are apparently living with Alexander’s in-laws. Alexander’s marriage cert (1909 Ontario) has his name as Allison and parents appear to match those of David in his later marriage.
The key word here is that David is working in a foundry in 1911 which would potentially match the iron + something stated on the above passenger list.

So, did Jeanie say she was married to make it easier for her to come to Canada? Or is this someone else? Anyway, food for thought.

Canada Lookup Request / Re: Ethel Emma Rosetta Louise Cazaly born 18 Dec 1899 Silverhill, Sussex, England

A tree I saw on ancestry only has the 2 children posted as private, presumably the son and Frederick’s daughter with his first wife. As I’m sure you’re aware, Canada has strict privacy rules wrt BMDs. Birth dates for the two children are in the record of their 2025 baptism into the Catholic faith (image on ancestry) but there doesn’t appear to be a birth registration/cert for either child available.
Incidentally, a couple of months after the children were baptized, Frederick and Ethel were baptized at the same church as converts to the Catholic faith.
No sign of a death for Ethel at the moment. Perhaps someone will come along and look for a possible obit for Frederick given his death date appears to be known. That might give some more info.

Here is the complete military record for Frederick, courtesy of Library and Archives Canada. It is quite lengthy and will be slow to load…
https://central.bac-lac.gc.ca/.item/?id=B9752-S015&app=PfFww&op=pdf
There is a death notation for Frederick on pg 64 of the military record that says 20-3-53. No other details are given.
FreeBMD has a marriage in Dec qtr 1917 in Wandsworth RD with Frederick S Townsend and Louise Prout as the only parties listed. There is a notation regarding permission to marry in Frederick’s military record.
Louisa Townsend died 26 June 1920 in Toronto, Ontario. Image available on ancestry if you have access and should also be available on familysearch (free). Her parents Robert Prout and Mary Congdon.

The marriage record is on ancestry. Put James Thompson, marriage 1904, Ontario Canada in ancestry and it should pop right up for you. As I indicated when I posted the transcript originally (reply #1) it is the registrar’s record and is 2 pages.
It should also be on the familysearch website but I didn’t look there myself.

Okey dokey.
The issue in the tree seems to be with the parents of James 1864-1925 who married Catherine Faughnan in 1904. The marriage record indicates his parents are Henry Thompson and Mary Ann Lawson (see back to reply number one). The parents for Catherine are fine.

The tree is accessible. Thank you. I think there might be a small error? I’ll get back to you when I study the tree in more detail.
