The census doesn't give the section # - the 6m x 6m township block is abt 30 m NE of Edmonton.
The N Saskatchewan R runs thru it and Redwater is in the block immediately to the north.

Redwater Sec. 20, Twp. 57, R. 21, W4M - 1909-12-15

Thank you Richard for all your help on this one, I love unravelling their life stories. It seems sad that after arriving in Canada for a new life that Louisa is no longer alive after 1911.I shall continue to chase all avenues with regards to her and her son Bertie. One again you have really helped me,Rebecca.

So as far as i can see, Louisa falls pregnant in 1898 and is sent away to ipswich to have the child, the father being Francis who was born in the same area as Louisa. Louisa goes to london to work and we have yet to find Francis in 1901. They marry in 1902 and emigrate with Bertie in 1907. somewhere between 1907 and 1911 Louisa dies and Francis remarries.

Hi just found James George Colby marriage to Alice Peck in 1892, she was Francis' sister.

Artbeat

Artbeat Report 2 Aug 2010 19:10

So alice is not a sister of louisa's??

Sorry but i don,t think ancestry,s bmds covers that area.

I will take another look for francis on the cencus to see if there is another.

Have you found francis on the 1901 cencus to see if he had a child???

Just noticed that too, however Louisa is in service on the 1901. I wonder whether the child was his from a previous marriage.
