NotesIn 1900, Frederick Armstrong, 8, arrived at Quebec, Canada, in a group of 101 Barnardo boys en route to Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Fred was placed with Mrs T J Marsland, Bracebridge, MacAulay, Muskoka, Ontario:

"July 14 1902

About 11 years of age, he is quite a superior looking child and improved in appearance very much. He is happy and contented. His environments are good and due attention is given to his schooling. His home is very comfortable and Mrs Marsland says she would like to adopt him. He attends the Salvation Army."

On November 6, 1917, at Lindsay, Ontario, Canada, Fred Armstrong, 26, was drafted into the Canadian Armed Forces. He declared that he resided in Minden, Ontario, Canada; that his Military Service Act Letter and Number was P.C.925774; that his date of birth was September 11, 1891; that his place of birth was England; that he was not married; that he was a Methodist; that he was a farmer; and that his next of kin was his friend, A. Palmer, who resided in Minden, Ontario, Canada. He was described as 5 foot 1-1/2 inches in height; dark complexion; brown eyes; dark hair.

On April 20, 1926, at Toronto, York, Ontario, Canada, a marriage was registered between Frederick Armstrong, 30, general worker, born in England to unknown parents (he stated "Father and Mother Both Died When He Was A Child Adopted By Alfred Palmber Minden Ontario"); and Eva Mary Flanagan, 18, born in Canada to John Flanagan and Edity Sawyers.
