    Note
    1912 It is possible that Edith J ANSELL sailed on 16th August 1912 from Liverpool on the "Virginian" bound for Montreal Quebec Canada. She arrived on the 23rd August 1912. She is down as being aged 32, This is about correct age. On Canada Censuses there is an Edith Jane ANSELL but her age is incorrect which make me feel inclined that it is possible that this couple emigrated. We had deaths in this country for both of them but the one for Edith made her born in 1883 whereas birth registration and 1911 Census makes her born in 1879/80. The death for her husband we had in Brighton district, but found probate for him and he left his money to his wife but she was a Florence Mary ANSELL so not correct person.
    and for James ANSELL
    And now found a James ANSELL aged 32 so born in 1880 also sailed from Liverpool and arrived in Quebec Canada on 6th May 1912 also on the "Virginian"
    From that I have found a death on 25th May 1943 in Toronto, York, Ontario, Canada with bith date 5th November 1880 and wife as Edith ANSELL and father as James ANSELL, so now certain that they emigrated to Canada in 1912

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
