NotesA birth registration was found for Arthur Percy Lord: Year of Registration: 1887; Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep; District: Farnham; County: Hampshire, Surrey, Sussex; Volume: 2a; Page: 95. Parents: John William Lord and Emily Bartholomew, married 1865 in Farnham, Surrey, England.

In 1902, Arthur P. Lord, 14, arrived at Quebec, Canada, in a group of 40 Roman Catholic children from the Liverpool Catholic Children?s Protection Society, 99 Shaw Street, Liverpool, Lancashire, England, and en route to 11 St. Thomas Street, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. (SUBMITTERS NOTE: Arthur was actually one of five Shaftesbury "Old Boys" from the Shaftesbury farm/school in Surrey. Shaftesbury used other agencies to transport their boys abroad when they were ready. They were escorted by an Anglican group called the SPCK (Society for the Propagation of Christian Knowledge) to Shaftesbury receiving homes in Canada. The particular party of which my grandfather was a part were sent to a farm near Ingersoll, Ontario where some were later sent on to Winnipeg and assigned to farms in that area. Some were assigned to farms in Ontario and some to the prairies.)

In February, 1913, Arthur P. Lord, 25, cigar maker, entered the United States through the Port of New York. He declared that he resided in Toronto, Ontario, Canada; that he had no relatives in Canada; that his final destination was Buffalo, New York; that he had previously been in the United States from September, 1906 to January, 1909, when he visited Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; that he was going to join his mother, Mrs. Blanche Lord, who resided at 258 Pearl Street, Buffalo, New York; that his health was good; that he carried $4.00 on his person; that he was 5 foot 8-1/2 inches in height; fair complexion; light brown hair; blue eyes; that he was born in Aldershot, England; and that he had arrived in Montreal, Canada, on the ship Tunisian in January 1900.
