Hi everyone, I hope I can be of help and likewise I hope you can help me. John Thomas Darbyshire was born January 04 1897 in Leigh (I believe) He married Eva Alberta Cordy on May 24 1919. Eva was born May 26 1896 and died April 21 1960 probably in Hespeler Ontario Canada. John died November 29 1953 in Hespeler Ontario Canada. I understand that John's father was James Darbyshire, but when they came to Canada in approx. 1909 he changed his name to Derbyshire. Rumour has it that he was swindled out of all his money when he came to Glace Bay Canada and was so embarassed by it he changed his name. I have been able to trace Eva Cordy ancestory back to 1835 and I am interested more in the Darbyshire history as well.
