Find Ancestors

Afternoon

I have found the following document

Name: Miss Anna Hunt
Age: 36
Estimated birth year: abt 1883
Arrival Port: Montreal, Quebec
Date of Arrival: 14 May 1919
Birth Location: England Wigan Lorchosin
Gender: Female
Citizenship: British

And i wondered if it was related to my Ann Hunt 1883 Wigan,
daughter of Joseph Hunt and Priscilla Ditchfield.

Any help to verify would be greatly appreciated many thanks

On that arrival record in 1919 she had travelled by train from Rhode Island. Her previous address there was 410 Smith St., Providence, RI. She had been in Canada previously from 1912-1913 in St. John, New Brunswick. Had arrived in Canada previously on 19 june 1912 aboard the teutonic.

Thank you Margee

Take note of this TIP:

Use LancsOPC and input the FATHER'S first name..........that's what I did and found Annie's marriage in seconds..................

Obviously, only a small percentage of records are on the OPC site, but as you are researching Lancs, it should always be one of the first places you look..........
