Surnames: Burrons (Burrows)
Just been given a hint for the above person on the 1921 census of Canada. She is living with her husband George Chas Burrons and her mother Martha A Hodgson (my 3 x gt grandmother). Please could someone tell me more detail particularly about the child, Ethel Irene, living with them who I knew nothing about. What age is she? are there any other children?
I do't have world access so would appreciate help on this, thank you.
Andrea
PS the name should read Burrows

Thank you so much that is fantastic and explains why I didn't know anything about the other child. I knew about Francis Eleanor as she was born in the UK to Jessie's first husband.
The adoption also fits in with family history of Jessie writing home to England to say she would adopt some of my Gt Grandfather's children after he was killed in WW1. None were sent but the story makes sense more now. T
