NotesA birth registration was found for Amanda Gertrude E Headon: Year of Registration: 1890; Quarter of Registration: Apr-May-Jun; District: Bath; County: Avon, Somerset; Volume: 5c; Page: 575.

(Parents: Caroline Elizabeth Raikes and Walter James Headon, married Bath, Somersetshire, England, 1888. Caroline Elizabeth Headon died in 1909 at the age of 39.)

In 1891, Amanda G. E. Headon, 1 year of age, was residing at Newgate, Broadwinsor, Dorset, England. Other family members included: Caroline E. Headon, 21; Thomas W. Headon, 2; and Walter J. Headon, 23, masons labourer. (Source: 1891 Census of England; Class: RG12; Piece: 1661; Folio 64; Page 8; GSU roll: 6096771.)

In 1901, Minnie [Amanda] Headon, 11 years of age, was shown as a lodger, along with his family, in the home of Elizabeth Haberfield, 37, at 25 Milk Street, Walcot, Bath, Somersetshire, England. Other members of the family included: Archie Headon, 1 month; Caroline Headon, 35; Edward Headon, 8; Maud Headon, 1; Herbert Headon [Robert Headon], 4; Olive Headon, 10; Thomas Headon, 12; and Walter Headon, 40, general labourer. (Source: 1901 Census of England; Class: RG13; Piece: 2342; Folio: 134; Page: 13.)

In 1906, Amanda Headon, 16, arrived at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, along with a group of 100 girls en route to Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. [As Walter and Caroline Headon are her parents, other siblings who immigrated would have been: Robert Headon, who also arrived in 1906 with Barnardos on the Dominion; Olive Headon, who arrived in 1902 with Barnardos on the Colonian; and Edward R. Headon, who arrived in 1904 with Barnardos on the Southwark.]

In 1911, Gertrude A. Headon, 21, is shown as a domestic with George Payne and family in Clarke, Durham, Ontario, Canada. Her date of birth is shown as March 1890 and her immigration year as 1907.

On July 28, 1915, in Bowmanville, Durham, Ontario, Canada, a marriage was registered between Gertrude Amanda Headon, 24, born in England, daughter of Walter Samuel Headon and Carolina Raikes; and Herschel Gordon Hooper, 19, grocer, born in Bowmanville, Ontario, Canada; son of John J. Hooper and Florence Creeper.
