You're welcome,Sarah. Just wish there had been a little more info on the manifest. He's a "gent" and she's a "lady".

maureen and carriann you're fantastic! Solves the prob of me not finding the husband on the 1911,
thanks to all here, hugely appreciated!!

I had found Lydia coming back to london in 1956, then apparently she goes back to canada in 1958, but she must come back again as she dies in 1964 in Kent, so yes think she did like to travel!
