Returning in Canada:

Estimated Birth Year: abt 1909
Date of Arrival: 8 Apr 1913
Vessel: Royal Edward
Port of Arrival: Halifax, Nova Scotia
Port of Departure: Avonmouth, England
Roll: T-4748

He's with Jeanie, both recorded as born England but classed as returning Canadians onward bound to Sackville.

Keith made a few trips back and forth. His birthplace given as Poole.

So probably this birth:

I cant thank you enough MarieCeleste! This is fantastic! Will need to take time to take it all in. Very interesting to see that Jeannie ended up in Canada.

Oh if Jeannie came back then perhaps there are descendants of Keith and Margaret still living in England. Wonder what happened to jeannie's husband? Perhaps we will never know that.
