LOU have been trying to find something, ANYTHING, but nothing so far, i will keep trying for you ok. deb

Hi Debra Are you ready for this???????????? No, he re-married in England, although there's some debate about where the 1st wife, Vera, actually died and when. Have been unable to locate a death rec here in the UK that fits. What I have is that they landed in Quebec 15th June 1929 off the Montroyal Canadian Pacific (or close to that), John with wife Vera and their 2 children, Margaret and Joan. John's 2 sisters, Edith and Nellie, were with him and possibly more of the Maynards. Sometime between arriving in Canada and arriving back in the UK, a child DONALD was born to John and Vera but this may have been on the ship on the way back. He certainly wasn't born and registered in the UK. John re-married in OND 1934 here in the UK, but Edith and Nellie definitely stayed in Canada. Edith married Frank ??? in Montreal, Nellie ended up in Guelph in Ontario, married name LACE until her death in 1988. If this is all going to be a major headache for you, don't bother, I'm just running out of places to try to get info Thanks Lou Debra Just found this on National Archives Canada Immigration: Maynard Joan 11m En 1929 2 Maynard John 26 En 1929 3 Maynard Margaret 6 En 1929 4 Maynard Patience 25 Wel 1929 5 Maynard Terence 24 En 1929 6 Maynard Vera 25 En 1929 7 Maynard William 43 En 1929 Nellie went to Canada in 1929 as Nellie Lace so assume she married in England but remained in Canada. Can't remember hubbie's 1st name though!
