NotesIn 1908, Emily B. Norrey, 14 (along with sister Lilian Mary Norrey, 6), arrived at Quebec, Canada, in a group of 65 girls and 109 boys from Barnardo Homes accompanied by Mrs. Francis to Peterborough and Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

On October 12, 1914, at Catleton, Northumberland, Ontario, Canada, a marriage was registered between Emily Beatrice McGraw, 20, born in England to Allen Norrey (mother's name not given/emigrant); and William McGraw, 30, born in Brighton, Ontario, Canada, to Jacob McGraw and Martha Chatterton.

William and Emily Beatrice Norrey McGraw had one child: Rita McGraw, born 1919 in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, died (by homicide) on November 30, 1946 in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada. (Rita died after being beaten by her husband, Joseph Taylor, 26, after both had been drinking with neighbors in Sarnia and in their home in Baxter's Beach, near Sarnia, Ontario, Canada. Joseph was sentenced to death in February 1947. Reported by The Lethbridge Herald, February 7, 1947. The sentence was overturned on appeal. Joseph was retried, found guilty of manslaughter, and sentenced to 20 years in the Kingston Penitentiary.)
