NotesHenry John Whitbread, 11, arrived in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, with a group of 395 children en route to Toronto and Peterborough, Ontario, Canada.

He declared that he was born in London, England; that he was not married; that his next of kin was his mother, Elizabeth Clay, who resided at 2011 Queensland Road, London, England; and that he was a farmer.
