Lost Passenger

[brummy]

Hi

I have posted before regarding family members immigrating to Canada
Leonard James Benjamin Maund with his wife Alice (nee Betts) and two children William and Eva sailed from Liverpool to Quebec on 18/5/1912  sailing on "SS Canada"

His wife Alice (nee Betts) was pregnant at the time and returned to the UK for the birth of there daughter (also named Alice  b.10/12/1912)

I know she returned to Canada after the birth as there second child John Walter was born in Canada , is it possible for someone to do a search for her return back to Canada following the birth (i guess she must have her Daughter Alice with her) also guessing it would be back to the same place in early 1913

Thanks for any help you may be able to offer

Brummy

There are several threads posted regarding this family on Beginners, England and Canada boards. It would be better if you would stick to one thread and post any requests or new information there so that researchers know what info you have already found rather than giving you the same info over and over again. To find a previous thread go to surnames above, put in Maund and your user name and you will bring up the threads on this family.

The best place to look for passenger lists is at Ancestors on board and ancestry. You can sometimes access ancestry through your local library as many subscribe. Also, many names are mistranscribed and some passenger lists are missing so keep that in mind when looking.

the other threads on the Canada board are

You state that Alice returned to England for birth of daughter Alice in 1912. Where did you get that information.

The only birth for an Alice E. Maund for Registration period September 1912 has mother's maiden name as Allen.
Alice E. Maund, REg. Qtr Sept. 1912, Marylebone, Vol 1a page 977

It would be extremely rare for someone to travel to Canada in 1912 and return to England for birth of a child in the same year. The costs of travel would preclude this and also the mother would not leave her other children in Canada as there would be no-one to take care of them.
The normal cost of a passenger ticket could be half of a normal labourers annual income.
I think you really need to look at this part of you research and verify this information.

I had a look for Maund and variants at ancestors on board and only found the passenger lists for 1912 for any member of this family.
