Hi
I am trying to find any information on Eleanor Jane/Joan Sim my fathers step sister.
She was born in 1900 in Lancashire England, her parents were James Sim and Eleanor Bates
I have found
- a declaration of passenger to Canada - Joan Sim was born about 1900 in Manchester, England. She arrived in Quebec City, Canada, in October 1923 at the age of 23 and also
- a marriage certificate for Eleanor Joan Sim marrying George Horace Dickinson as follows
Eleanor Joan Sim

birth: 1900 , England
marriage: 30 November 1927 Francois Lake, British Columbia, Canada

I also found a couple of entries to the US for her husband George Horace

finally what I would like is to find any other information like children, address, divorce another marriage for Eleanor? (my dad only found out recently he had step siblings)
Please note Eleanor Jane Sim was seems to be changed to Joan and Dickinson was spelt Dickenson once into the USA
I realise there may be some problems with living people but assure you the information we require is a genuine request.
Thanks so much for anyones help
