Albert Edward Roscoe- completed

[J.J.]

Correct me if I am wrong, but I think the L Roscoe in 1894 is Lily?  Anyway these were a group of girls, a party of 8 from the Wirthington Union, and 26 from Manchester and Salford , with age either illegible or not given...

The thing is that many forenames are not given either, and perhaps they were all listed as "F" by mistake ( Th "E" could be Albert...It would be a good idea to contact the archives in Manchester and find out more about them!

This is a Lizzie Roscoe b. England, whom Frank thinks to be Lilly...a domestic in the Park household

I do not see her in 1911, and she is supposed to have died young, but do not see a death...

J.J. you are correct, I am sure that it is the correct Lillie Roscoe.
She appears on an Ontario census in 1901 working as a Domestic for a family named "Park" in the Hastings county which is very near Belleville where the Marchmont house was in the day.
It is thought that she passed away at a young age sometime before 1915.
Family folk lore has it that this message was passed along to another older brother in France just before the death of Albert Roscoe.
Would be nice to establish the location of her grave site etc.
It seems Albert came to Canada in 1893 I think in May on the S.S. Vancouver.
He also was processed throught the Marchmont House in Belleville and worked on a farm near Sterling Ontario.

Down below it states that there has been more research done on him, but you'll have to contact the writer for details as I do not see a lot on page...Says he has done extensive research, but No mention made of his stating an "Irish" birth at signup. ahhh, but just realized that you ARE the writer, F.H.

  Hi I am Carol Southee and Albert was my grandfathers half brother.  I have lots of records on Albert as my family are the only living relatives from his mother side, Margaret Coonen and her marriage to Walter Roscoe.  There maybe other Roscoes out there that are descended from his fathers side from his first marriage but apparently they didn't want to know the children from the second marriage.

Will be in contact.
