You think might be her? Is there a census fro Canada in 1911?

Rambling Report 10 Nov 2015 16:46

Not seeing her on the 1911 for Canada at familysearch, but the LM Wells travelling could be this one , so no further forward I'm afraid

Either way Lilly should be on the 1901 in England even if that passenger record is her.
