Thank you so much Susan, you were so quick to reply, this information is most valuable and I can tell my Aunt of my findings.

Also I was wondering if you could look up a Herbert Kent born about 1877 came to Canada from Suffolk, England, married in 1907 in
Manitoba, so his crossing would be sometime between 1900 and 1907.

Thanks so much for all.

Hi Gail

I found an entry for a W.H. Kent, age 27, from Sussex, England, aboard the Tunisian which arrived in April 1904.  He is destined to Winnipeg.  Perhaps this is your man.

Unfortunately, Herbert Kent seems to be a little more difficult to find than the others.

You can see the entry at this link:

PS  I see on your profile that you are on Saltspring.  I'm in Nanaimo so we're practically neighbours!!  LOL

Thank you so very much, it has to be him, as he disappeared after the 1901 Census.

Thanks again, I haven't done very much on the family tree for a long time, but am getting back now that I have found
some new info.

Yes, we are on Saltspring Island, so we definitely are neighbours.

Thanks again.

Hi Sue:

I do have one other request if at all possible,

DODMAN, Frank Harold born 1884, would have come to Vancouver from London, 1908
DODMAN, Marie Louise born 1883,    "
SANDERS, William born 1844             "
SANDERS, Mary Ann born, 1849         "

There could be many more Dodman's and Sanders on the same voyage.

Thanks again for all.

Hi Gail

Sorry it has taken me so long to do the look-ups.

There is an entry for a William Sanders (age 65), Mary (age 63), Ethel (age 24) and Frank (age 25) aboard the Lake Manitoba arriving in Saint John, NB in March 1912.  They are destined to Vancouver, BC.

There is an entry for an F.H. Dodman (age 23, Coach builder) and wife Mrs. Dodman (age 24) aboard the Lake Champlain arriving in Quebec, PQ in June 1908.  They are destined to Montreal.  Perhaps these are your ancestors?
