Find Ancestors

I'm looking for:

William Womack Shippam born c1848 in Yorkshire.

I've seen a W W Shippam on the list. Would like to know where he departed from, when he arrived in Montreal, Quebec and who travelled with him if possible.

Thanks in anticipation.

Don't have access to Canadian lists.

However, there is a William W Shippam in Manitoba, age 57 in 1906:
http://automatedgenealogy.com/census06/

Wife Mary, children Ralph F and Grace E.

William immigrated 1904.

There may be other Shippam's, didn't take the time to look. Leaving now for a few hours.

Cannot view full entry:
William Womack Shippam, British Columbia Death Index, 1872 to 1979. Year of death: 1934.

William is on the 1911 census as well with wife Mary, living in Brandon, Manitoba. Note: you can view the actual images.

The 1911 Canadian census has a William Shippam born Oct.1849, England, wife Mary born Feb.1850, England, daughter Gracie E. born ?, 1891, England, daughter Sarah Johnson, married, born July, 1875?, England and Kingsley J. Johnson, relationship?, born ??? England. All emigrated 1905. Living Brandon, Manitoba.

Next door is:
Ralph F. Shippam born Oct.1885, England, wife Adia born Dec.1881, England , Frederick C. born Aug. 1910, Manitoba. Think they emigrated 1906 but very difficult to read.

Hi Margaret :))

You could try googling Brandon Manitoba and Shippam. Leaving now for sure. :)

That's my fella Lisa.

Thanks.

Hi Lisa and Bye Lisa!

Here it is. He travelled on his own and was a 55 year old, harness maker going to Winnipeg.

From a prior contact, I have Grace Evelyn being married twice. Once to Charles Lundy as above the other to John Ready. It is it possible to tell if there are any children from either marriage?

Very strangely transcribed 1901.
