Death Search - Walter Hugh Sebire Guernsey
« on: Thursday 16 October 08 23:12 BST (UK) »
Hi
My Great Grandfather, Walter Hugh Sebire b1880 Guernsey, Channel Islands.  :)
I have his parents and siblings.
He went to Toronto in 1904.
He was in the Royal Engineers in WW1.
He left the army at the end of the war in 1918 but what he did then, I have not got a clue????  ???
Can anyone find a marriage or death please?
Kind regards,
Robinetta

Robinetta,

We have recently been looking into the Sebire family name, as have just discovered one of our relatives marrying an elder brother of Walter High Sebire (1880) – Ernest Albert Sebire (1874), who ended up married with children in Australia.

However we did find that a Mr & Mrs W Sebire travelled from Montréal, Québec, Canada to Liverpool, England in October 1905 on the Brisbane, his occupation being Carpenter – the same trade as his Brother and Father

Does this look likely ??

Hi Al & Al

It looks highly likely. Thank you so much for that information. It is such a move forward for me. 

Have you looked on genealogy.sebire.org which has loads of information about the Sebire family too.

Grateful for your help and time.

Kind regards, Robinetta
