NotesParents: Thomas Fearns and Catherine Gannon, married 1881, Liverpool, Lancashire, England.

In 1900, Annie Fern, 7, arrived at Quebec, Canada, in a group of 43 children from the Catholic Children's Protective Society, 53 Overton Road, Liverpool, England, to Miss Brennans Home, 11 Thomas Street, Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

On March 5, 1916, at Saint Aloysius, Montreal, Quebec, Canada, a marriage was registered between Annie Fearns, daughter of Thomas Fearns and Catherine Gannon; and Francis Joseph Aggett, son of Robert Aggett and Catherine Delahanty.

Francis Joseph Aggett and Mary Ann Fearns had one child: Maureen Elizabeth Aggett, born January 17, 1924, died June 25, 1991, in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

A newspaper article from about 1962 reported:

HOMETOWN VISIT AFTER 62 YEARS

Arriving back in her home city of Liverpool aboard the Empress of England on July 6 will be 70-years-old Mrs. F. J. Aggett. It will be her first visit since she was taken to Canada in 1900, when she was only eight.

Meantime from the other end o the world, her seaman brother, John Fearns, now aboard the S.S. Dorset in Melbourne, Australia, writes to tell me that he is the only in person in Britain that his sister knows.

"I am hoping to be back in London about the first week in July, so I may be in time to meet her when she arrives in Liverpool," writes John, whose home is at 5 Townsend Avenue, Liverpool 13.

"If I'm not, then the reception party will have to comprise my wife and sons whom my sister has, of course, never met."

Mrs. Aggett married a Canadian who recently retired from teh Canadian Pacific Railroad. They have one daughter and eight grandchildren, all living in Montreal.

John Fearns added: "My sister is a devout Catholic and is a convenor in Canada for the Catholic Women's League."

Mary Ann (Annie) Fearns Aggett died in 1976 in Perth, Ontario, Canada.
