In 1888, Albert Cyples, 10 (along with brothers, Frederick Cyples, 13; Henry Cyples, 11, and Leonard Cyples, 7), arrived at Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, in a group of 99 Quarriers boys who traveled with Maria Rye's party.
[EDITORS NOTE] By 1891, their father, Herbert William Cyples, was residing as a lodger in Blackley, Lancashire, with his youngest son, Herbert W. Cyples, born the same year as Dinah's death (so it is a safe assumption that she died in childbirth with him). In 1901, Herbert William Cyples, Sr., is residing with his wife, Annie E. Cyples (no marriage record found) in Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire, England. Herbert W. Cyples, aged 58, dies in Pontardawe, Breconshire, Glamorgan, Wales. Annie Cyples dies in 1914 in Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire, England.
