Sarah lied about Thomas's 1895 immigration in the 1911 census to shield him from the public stigma that the numerous Dr. Barnardo children suffered from in their daily lives.

Marriage to Rosa Belle Haines-Purrott-Siciley
London, Middlesex County, Ontario, Canada
If you calculate from John Henry's birthday on 29 April of 1871 to the date of his first wedding, he would have actually been 3 days short of his 28th birthday & not the 26 stated in this citation.

Marriage

The information given by John Henry in this marriage citation is completely false. John's real father's name was George & his mother was Emma. The John & "Etta" he mentions as being his parents were actually his aunt & uncle still living in England.
