I was told my grandfathers sister Nellie emigrated to Canada. She was born 1896 in Edmonton London. On the free BMD I found a marriage which could be her to a George Pike in 1913 in Chelsea. Also found 2 children Edward b 1913 Hackney and Olive b 1915 Can any one get access to emigration for Canada around or after the dates I have given. Thanks

Thank you all for your help. I do not think this is her leaving for Canada on 24 Nov 1920 as she did not come from Cheshire.but thanks Margee
Her parents were Onslow Clarke and Elizabeth nee Elkington from London
Lillian was her elder sister and she had lots more brothers and sisters. Can account for all of them but Nellie

Sorry, I see you've already ruled out that marriage as the father is named as William Henry Charles Power-clarke.


So this is YOUR family.
