Hi willow,

No I did not have that one.

By any chance did you come across Charles William Harlow as a child aged about 9 in the 1891 census? He was born Dec 4, 1882, so that would make him 8 or 9.

Thanks again for the help

Miriam aged 31 b Tattenhill? wife
Charles aged 7 b Horniglow son
John aged 4 b Horniglow son

I think this is the right one because checked George in the 1881 census and he is listed as living on his own aged 25. Maybe they had a problem remembering ages

Thanks willow,

That does look like it is the right one. We do know he emigrated to Canada between 1900 and 1904 as he got married in 1904 in Medicine Hat, Alberta to Alice Threasa Tozer.

I still have a lot of work ahead of me but you certainly have made it easier.

Thanks again

Hi Anne-Maree,
 I have a Charles Harlow born 1846, who married Sarah, sorry I don't have her last name.
Charles had a younger brother named George, who was born 1856/7 in Horninglow, Staffordshire, he married Miriam born 1860, in Tatenhill, sometime between 1881 and 1891, as he was listed as single in the 1881 census.

Charles is the only one I have as having a Sarah as his wife.

I don't know if this helps, but let me know if there is anything else I can do for you.

Hi wmouse

Try the Canada national archives about what records in Canada, also emigration lists on rootsweb or genuki links, post 1920's there is a website called pier21.

Hope this helps
