On the 1911 census, there is Thomas True (age 41), Maria True (38), and children Thomas (16), Amy (13) and Gladys (11). I believe this family emmigrated to Canada not long after this census, probably before 1918, as there is a 'Canadian' soldier in WW1 with next of kin Maria True and I can find no records of any of this family after 1920. Is there anyone with access to the records to verify this?
