Well, you've been busy. I certainly like the 1910 record- but where are they in 1911?

[deb usa]

where are they in 1911?

I wish I knew!!! 

It would help if we had the new wife's name!

Any chance they might have been in England or Scotland on census night? Perhaps its worth checking those 2 censuses?

1911 Scottish census hasn't been released yet and I don't think they are in england but were not allowed to do look-ups for that census.

Hi folks.
Boy, you have all been very busy !
The info deb usa posted on the family returning to Ireland on the ship Lake Champlain, looks like them. It might answer a question that we wanted to know, where Helen, the mother,  died. We had assumed she died in Canada, but it looks possible she could have died in Ireland.
In the 1911 census Maggie (Margaret) and her father Robert, are living in Cosgrove Street, North Queen Street area of Belfast, with his mother, Rose Campbell, formerly Carson.
Cosgrove Street, plus a few other streets in the area, have been left out of the 1911 online census.
Margaret Campbell's father married again in 1917, recorded as a widower, to Susan McCracken. Susan died in 1930. Unable to say if they had any children.
Margaret or Maggie was, or so we have been told, sent to live with relatives.
Kells / Connor for the Campbells and Carsons.  The other possible was Londonderry area, city or county, for the Doughertys and the Coyles. Had no luck on the Londonderry Forum.

Thanks for all your efforts, all your info much appreciated.
Regards,
Dixie

Here's a link to the older thread on LONDONDERRY board- would have saved us lots of searching if we'd had that and also known why we can't find them in 1911 census in Belfast.

I thought Maggie's mum was Margaret not Helen...wasn't Helen her grandmother ie: Margaret Dougherty's mum?

It looks like Maggie's mum went back to Ireland and Robet married a few years after she "died"
