oooo

maybe we should look for James Fiddament in Norwich .... I wonder if he was the same age ? ...maybe she was hiding after all the 'scandal' ....she may not have even used her correct name or POB ....

deb

maybe Joseph cecil said he was a widow ..as she had dissappeared !

Hi Deb,

I have sent Dee the image plus some more info.... I think she would prefer to see iit before others do.   I'll let her finish the story.....

James Fiddament was 66 and a widower when they married in 1917

I'm just off to check to see who is with him in 1911 ca census

[jc26red]

James Fiddament was with his first wife in 1911.
Arabella Fiddament died in 1912, it  said she was Irish on the death cert but she was English according to the all Censuses.
They are in England together 1891 ... probably poor transcription in 1901 somewhere.

a MRS Lennard arrived aboard the 'Vancouver' 1887
a rather poignant date

Passenger List of Ships Arriving at the Port of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

I'm not 100% as she arrived with a Miss A and a Miss E Lennard

Hi

Hopefully it is Charlotte that arrived in 1887 ... that would make is easier for us  as we would not have to hunt for her anymore in the UK . i wonder if The Miss E Lennard could possibly be her daughter Edith Margaret, who may have then returned to England by 1891.

I am going to see if Joseph Cecil had sisters ....

I hope Dee is a delighted and excited as i am with your great finds !

Hi Deb... don't think Dee will be on for a while, she has to go food shopping this morning (her morning that is!)  I can't wait for her to come back too! I shan't go to bed till she's online I know 

I would love the passengers in 1887 to be the right ones, problem is there is only the transcript on Ancestry - no images

Jenny,

there is an image of the ship's manifest on Archives Canada but it doesn't show much more than you found.

The Vancouver arrived Halifax, 1887/04/03, image 10 shows Mrs Lennard and two female children, A. Lennard age 4 and E. Lennard age 3.

P.S. I looked for then in 1901 but no luck yet.
