Hi You know that Naomi BOOTH nee KNOTT arrived in Alberta Sept 1921. to marry K/H/R? BOOTH.
You know that she returned to England in 1960.
Is there information re: Marital Status at that time ? Widow/ divorcee etc.
Is there information in England re any children?
Is Naomi still living ? - if not - perhaps an obituary may have been published - which may include name of late husband / children?
Any family letters/ photo/s etc - that may give you some leads.

The Master Surname Database (not online) (mostly burials in Alberta cemeteries) of the Alberta Genealogical Society lists these names;

Luther BOOTH, 24 Feb 1871 - 15 Jul 1940
Brook BOOTH, 1873 - 1930
Henry BOOTH, Nov 1876 - 1959
Clara BOOTH, 1889 - 1960
all burials in the Streamstown cemetery.

So probably her husband Henry BOOTH died in 1959 and Naomi returned to England. In those days there were weekly papers that may have his death mentioned.

Hi Peter, Thankyou for your reply to my request for information re Naomi Knott and Henry Boooth.Naomi did return to the Uk in 1960.Her brother Theophilius came over to escort her home. Henry Wall Booth was born in Bingley , Yorkshire in fact Naomi lived quite close to him , and as they were both involved with farming families they obviously knew each other! Henry emigrated to Canada in 1913 and Naomi in 1921.
Once again thankyou for your response, it is greatly appreciated!
Kind Regards, Gerry Emms.

There are little write-ups about the Booths in this history book. http://www.ourroots.ca/e/toc.aspx?id=4205 pages 62 and 63. Pay special attention to the Henry Booth story at the bottom of page 63, I think he was Naomi's husband. Butch
