Read these posts from earlier on in this older thread - by Anne:
I am new to this forum, but have been researching my British Home Child relatives and the BHC's who lived in the homes of some of my ancestors/relatives. I have a brick wall with one young lady, who was taken into my ggg uncle's home. She appears as a 7 year old, in the 1911 Canadian census living with John and Minnie Wright as their adopted daughter, born in England (1904). Her name is shown as Hilda Wright. She is still with them in the 1921 Canadian census, showing as their adopted daughter, aged 17, named as Amy Pegg, but all the other details match up. When I did a search of birth registrations for "Amy Pegg" in England in 1904, I found a Hilda Amy Pegg, whose birth was registered in first quarter of 1904 at Newcastle upon Tyne, Northumberland, England. I am not completely sure these all line up, but I think I'm on the right track. I'm also not completely sure she's a BHC, but I was alerted to the possibility when I saw a 7 year old girl, born in England, living with my relatives in Saskatchewan. Does anyone know anything of this girl?
PolarBear found these useful marriages in Ontario alth Hilda's memories of names is off.
She had, after all, though, only recently found out her actual parent's names
Two marriages took place in Ontario in 1921 and 1923 that may be of interest. The residence for both brides at the time of marriage is given as Moose Jaw.
One appears to be for the daughter of John and Minnie Wright, linked here.....

Problem is her birthplace is given as Moose Jaw so this may or may not be your Hilda. Her intended may have thought that was where she was born when he applied for the marriage licence. To complicate matters, there is another Hilda Pegg born in and living in Saskatchewan in at least the 1911 census. However, she was born in 1907 and her parents are Frank and Annie, which differs from the parents in the record above. So probably a different Hilda. If the Hilda in the marriage record is "your" Hilda, she certainly seems to use a few different names.
Anyway, I have put this second marriage up as food for thought.
