What Next?


I needed to contact Maritime Archives in Canada to find out about the Agnes Ellen.

I wanted to get a copy of my Grandparents marriage certificate which might tell me more about John Reid's parents. From the CWGC I knew they were Patrick and Mary and they were dead in 1918.

I thought it would be good to find his birth certificate too. I reckoned the dates on the crew lists would be most accurate he must have been born about 1878.

I might even be able to trace them in the 1901 census.

My husband had a week's holiday; our son was off to camp: we booked a trip to Dublin for four nights five days. My son was rather put out he would have liked to come to Dublin too.
