Thomas Holloway born 1876 London, England emigrated to Toronto
« on: Friday 23 September 22 15:24 BST (UK) »
I am looking for descendants of Thomas Holloway and Alice Florence Stacey.  I have found the family in 1921 in Etobicoke, York West, Ontario - children Ivy Miriam, Alice Mary, Robert Thomas, Henry Arthur Benjamin, Lillian R, and Violet Anne.

I have some further information for Ivy Miriam (married name Moffat), Violet Anne (married name Hewins) and Robert Thomas who married Winifred Marjorie Key.

However, I have nothing for the other siblings.

Any information would be much appreciated.
