More detailed and original shows they have left 33 St. John Street, York (not 53 as I originally said) the home of Mrs. Bowker, sister in law!!!!!

Thank you very much

That gives me plenty to work off

Think she must have married him in Canada. Can find nothing in UK. Must have crossed the border back into Canada after landing in New York in 1920.

Assuming of course that this is 'your' Martha!!

The original shows John 'Steer' is a German national and is a Butcher.

Roots Web Martha Steir

That link is not working! Comes up 'not found'. Are you using Ancestry or Rootsweb?

All I can give you is the link

http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?gss=rootsweb&gsfn=Martha&gsln=Steir&o_iid=33216&o_lid=33216&gl=allgs

which I hope will help

Am not finding that Martha Steir on passenger lists. I am able to view, but cannot find! Any more info that will help me find her?

Thats correct but I was only aware of the marriage to Pool and McGuire. It never crossed my mind after finding the last marriage she was a Steir.
