In Response To: Re: Muntz ()

That agrees with my notes (tho Elise was an Elsie). They married at Kensington and landed at Quebec ten days after the wedding - their ship must have been setting a new speed record!

One of my biggest unanswered questions is when exactly Elsie went back to England, taking Hope and Joy with her. One source I have says it was after Rupert died in 1914 (automobile accident). This being the reason sounds fine, but Hope's obit says that she attended Ontario College, so as she was born in 1907 they can't have gone to England very soon after 1914.

But on the other hand, I canlt find any record of them in England prior to c.1927. (True, they are in the 1911 UK census, but this was merely a visit to relatives, namely aunt Miinie Isabella who had Hope and Joy with her at Winchester, whilst on the same census night, their mum Elsie was lodging with her mother Sara Matilda Muntz and aunt Lucy Irving Kell at the Grand Hotel, Eastbourne.)
