Edward John Kendall
« on: Saturday 15 January 11 19:42 GMT (UK) »
born 8/10/1878 St Austell District son of Richard Kendall and Edna Best. Have located a possible sighting for him in Seattle, Washington by virtue of Naturalization papers in 1911. but I cant see the image. Can anyone provide any further info.
Does he marry?
any children?

Have been looking for his dad for some time a Master Mason from Cornwall. Edna his mum says she is a widow in 1901. in 1881 the family is in London and Richard vanishes after that, I cannot locate a death entry that matches his age so I wonder if Edward John goes to USA to be with dad.
Richard is born 1850 St Enoder, Cornwall.

that looks like he went out and mum joined him. Minnie is his sister so the likelihood is she married in Seattle between 1910 and 1920. So where on earth did dad die?

Sandra can you see any of their deaths?
