Deb Thanks for that.

Does anyone want proof that lying is in the genes? ;D ;D ;D ;D

So Julian is saying he immigrated in 1884, yet we know he married in Canada in 1885 and if I am reading all of that correctly, he attended medical school in Detroit in 1901 yet he was already saying he was a physican when he married Margaret in 1885?

So where was he between his baptism in 1855 and marriage in 1885?
He says educated in Birmingham, so why can't we find him on any census, he was old enough to be at school by 1961.
 I don't know about South Africa, that is one of the few countries that Edwin doesn't claim to have visited. Also I have a feeling, I will check it out that South Africa was all different colonies around the 1860/1880 period.
Onwards and upwards.

I thought so, the obvious place to enter what is now South Africa would be Cape Town, no Suez Canal then, so the west coast easiest to reach.
 So Cape Colony, 'The Cape Colony subsequently remained in the British Empire until the formation of the Union of South Africa in 1910,' British had been there since late 1700's. ( from Wiki) so to call the country South Africa, was he making things up around the 1911 date when he started practising in Chicago?
I don't know if any information is available about immigration to Cape Colony, another dig around.

By 1930 Frank and Olive are in Vickers Ave, he is President of Dried fruits and worth $12 000 , This is where the brother-in-la is living with them ... John E Twiner

 ... the more I look at the image the more it looks like TURNER ... who's obit mentioned the brother John E Turner when all the other siblings were Osbaldeston? was it Geneva's ?

Deb Well keep it in the family ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Deb BTW I think the 1900 and 1910 census returns for Julian showing his wife as Anna/Hannah are the same wife, I know her age fluctuates but if Julian was filling the  form in well......

Deb it was Geneva's obit I think that mentioned the brother.

Deb I also think that John E is Edwin, he is the only one we haven't found a marriage for, he was born 1883 and Geneva died 1954 so is there any way of finding a death for him after 1954? I guess though if he continued to use the name Turner it will be very difficult to find him.
