Thank you Sylvia and Margaret,

I wonder if they went to Australia?

Thanks, Sylvia, I didn't get back.
Mary, I agree that it looks as if the family emigrated so I had a look at the 1901 Canadian census and also checked the Ellis Island site. Nothing.

Hi Margaret,

Could you give me the info on the census for the mother-in-law. Perhaps that might lead to something.

I wonder if the family emigrated somewhere?

Thank you,

Mary

The only one that I can find is mother-in-law Ann Wilkinson, a pauper, in a workhouse, I believe.
She's age 75 but born same place as in 1891, Medley. (although it's been mistranscribed as Wedley)
