I know this 1891 isn't what Shelagh asked for, but it helps us see the bigger picture:

THOMPSON, Arthur Head Married M 26 1865 Stoker On Steam Ship Gosport, Hampshire
THOMPSON, Catherine Wife Married F 19 1872 North Shields, Northumberland
THOMPSON, Arthur Son M 0 (7M) 1891 North Shields, Northumberland
HARLBUTT, Andrew Boarder Married M 25 1866 Sailor North Shields, Northumberland
HARLBUTT, Mary A Married F 21 1870 North Shields, Northumberland
HARLBUTT, Anne Boarder F 0 (8M) 1891 North Shields, Northumberland

Address: 16, Coburg Street, Tynemouth, North Shields County: Northumberland

On subsequent census Mary Alice is shown as head of household in South Shields but still married.

There's something not right, I think this is his first wife's death:

Uh oh! The children are hers! They're Jordans on the 1911 census so E. Hurlbutt on the 1920 passenger list is Ethel Jordan. They're not married yet but posing as man and wife!

At the end of his sister's address on the 1920 arrival it looks like W Toronto has been squeezed in vertically.

Also, it looks like a line has been drawn through Alfred's entry - perhaps he didn't travel?

Andrew's arrival in Canada in 1920 he's with:
E. Hurlbutt, 46
Alfred R., 17
Charles, 15
Lilian E., 14
Albert W., 10
Francis, 8

He was a master mariner but intends to become a confectioner!
He gives name of relative as sister, Mrs May, 43 St. Marks Rd. Don't know if that's a relative in England or Canada?

Perhaps she was on the same vessel and it was a shipboard romance? <3 <3

If people are a little more mature in years when they meet their courtship may not be very long .....

Curiously I can't find the record of her arrival in Canada but if that's her arriving June 1920 and they married in September same year they must have known each other previously?

It does indeed Margee.well spotted. It also says hes a ships captain

His first marriage:

The date on the original of the marriage is 1920 not 1926. I see he was a widower.

Her name also seems to be Ethel Annie

Andy

Andrew Hinman Hurlbutt (b 1866 North Shields) arrived in Toronto in 1920. He married Ethel Alice Jordan(nee Baker) in Toronto the same year. She was born in Deal kent and she was on the 1911 England census with her 1st husband and children. I would love to know if they travelled on the same ship and dates of death etc.
