Thank you for the information, I will have to wait till maybe the new year, to go check on the return passage to try and get names of all the passengers , as when I looked at the pages their names were on, I could not go to the pages before or after. It will keep me busy in the New Year P.G.

The child born in 1918 is not Edith's daughter. The mother's name was Bird or Byrd not sure how it was spelt. I don't think Henry and her were officially married as cant find a cert .He also had another daughter born 1942 with another woman. I have met the daughter born in 1918 and still keep in touch with the daughter born 1942.

Kathleen , her husband William Edward and 3 children Violet Olga, Edith Florence and Albert Henry Charles. left to go to Cape Town 9 Sept 1903 from London England, ship name Ruapehu.
Violet and Edith returned to port in Southampton on 16 July 1906 ship name Darmstadt.
William and Albert returned same day and same port, but on ship Gaika .
I only found out this information last week on Find my past ( it was free ).
As could not see Kathleen on return , I was wondering if she had died there . I could never find a death for her in Ireland.

Edith went to Addison Road, which was her stepmother's address. I'm not sure about the Seville Place address, but yes that is her uncle at 107 Seville .
Edith married Henry Edward Porter and had a son Henry Jr in 1914.
Henry remarried ? and had a daughter Florence in 1918. and remarried ? again and had another daughter around 1942 I found lots of family here in Canada, and still keep in touch, but they knew nothing about my mam, or what happened to Edith Florence. Henry Sr. said she had died in Ireland. but I think she came back to Canada around 1920 but I'm not sure .

She was born in Ireland in 1866. Her maiden name was Kathleen Watson. I just found her going to South Africa in 1903 with her husband William Edward Owen and children . I see her husband and children came back in 1906, but could not see her on the passenger list. He remarried in 1907 in Dublin, and he died in 1909.

Thank you for your help , the information you both gave me is correct. I have a lot of information on the Owen family. I just cant find Violet after she went to Co.Down. Her sister Edith Florence is my grandmother, I also do not know what happened to her after 1916 ( the year my mam was born.)..I know Edith was married in Canada to Henry Porter, and went back to Ireland to have my mam, and left her there. I'm still trying to find out what happened to Edith after that. Albert died in Ireland in 1920.,that is him in the police dept grave.
