Welcome to the boards Renee

So her three older siblings went to Canada? when was this? and how do you know about Annie? Is she on the 1911 census?

Thanx,

her 3 sibbling Thomas sheridan brown and john sheridan brown and ethel brown all went to Canada in 1903 after the passing of her third child harry. I found out about Annie by accident i was looking for someone else when i got her name and besides it said emily brown single woman living in coventry on the same strreet she was living. I cant find her on the 1911 census not sure with whom she was living.

Maybe its a needle in a hay stack since im in canada cant seem to find anything. Im related to John Sheridan Brown.
.

Just to try and sort out a little, is this Emily?

Cannot see Annie on 1911

Here's another child for you:

The only birth for Emily Brown in Coventry without an infant death would appear to be this one:

Births Dec 1869 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Brown Emily Coventry 6d 412

And she looks to be on the 1881 census:

Ann Brown 50 head charwoman widow born West Bromwich
Herbert 26 son watchmaker
Annie 19 servant
Emily 11 scholar

All children born Coventry, living at 23 Court 1 House, Spon Street Coventry.
There were also lodgers with the family.

Date of birth for Annie - her christening can be found here:

http://www.hunimex.net/warwick/bmd/Coventry/Coventry%20St%20John%20Baptisms%201905-1908.pdf

Born 12/12/1904, christened 1/1/1905

I see from a post on Historic coventry forum they have given her father as Daniel, who died 1880. I think Emily could have had marriage banns read at Coventry, but not to Thomas Sheridan:

http://www.hunimex.net/warwick/bmd/Coventry/Coventry_St_John_marriages%201888-1901.pdf

banns read 1/11/1891 to William Henry Cleaver, can't see a marriage for them though.

Added - missed this one:

Marriages Dec 1891 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Brown Ann Coventry 6d 932
Cleaver William Henry Coventry 6d 932
Moore Arthur Richard Coventry 6d 932
WAKEFIELD Eleanor Louisa Coventry 6d 932

Ignore that last post, I've got Emily mixed up with sister Ann! Sorry, but will leave as it's still connected to the family you are researching.

wow thanx a bunch i will look into those leads

Renee

I wonder if Annie was with one of Emily's siblings on the 1911 census - it was prior to adoption records so there won't be a trail there. Do you have the family on the 1871 census?

One of Daniel's other children married a Wilkins in the same church - it may be worth tracing the siblings through 1911 census to see if Annie is with any of them.

i,m thinking she might have been shipped with the middle more homes is there a list of all the children that was sent there cant find her in Canada

its still for annie brown born on dec 12 1904
