Marriages of child/ren of George David Horsley and Frances Emma Smith

Frederick George Horsley, 23, b Cambridge England, living Hamilton, bricklayer, Baptist, married Elizabeth Mossie Tarves, 18, b Aberdeen Scotland, living Hamilton, d/o Geo Grant Tarves & Margaret Jane Smith, witn: William W L Horton & Minn/Minnie Smith Tarves both of Hamilton, 6 June 1917. Registration # 021640.

On the one side of this registration his name is given as Edward George but I think the registrar just made a mistake.

Mable Daisy Horsley, 24, b Stroud Gloucester England, living Hamilton, married George Russell Hardman, 20, b Middlesex County Ontario, bookkeeper s/o Joseph A Hardman & Mariah Agusta Ryckman, witn: Joseph H & Vera Hardman both of Hamilton, 10 June 1914, Registration # 024362.

Cannot give you any births are births are only released to 1909; marriages to 1926 and deaths to 1935.

I don't see a marriage or death for Kate/Catherine Horsley. She isn't on 1911 census with the rest of them.

Don't see your Irelands on Canadian Passenger Lists.

I don't see your Irelands on 1911 census but have a closer look. www.automatedgenealogy.com
