Hi there, I'm Lisa and the youngest grandchild of Elfie Vanelli, nee Fountain.  My grandmothers early life is a virtual mystery to me and most of my family, all we know is that she was sent to Canada at a young age.  Even her first marriage is only known by some and is a mystery as well.  Can you shed some light on the history?  Thank you very much for the response.
Sincerely,
Lisa.

Hi Lisa,

Regarding Elfie or should I say Elsie, she was born in Sunderland, England in 1906 she is my 2nd cousin 2x removed.  I am fully aware of the articles posted relating to her and her husband,  Elfie parents Joseph and Ellen Brown emigrated to Canada in late 1910.  Her grandfather Thomas Fountain married my 3 x great aunt Elizabeth Ann Hutson/Hudson. Looking at Sandras posts she has provided information I did not have which I need to confirm is correct within my tree time frame, but yes we are related.  Please do PM me.  Sorry delay replying I dont visit this site very often but so glad I did.

Just slightly different spelling on the surname -  Article in the Ottawa Citizen August 8th 1946 - Mrs Effie Vanelli charged with killing her husband in Toronto ?
