Notes*NOTE* Jane Ackley's name is misspelled as "Ackerley" on the ship's manifest.

A birth registration was found for Jane Ackley: Year of Registration: 1875; Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep; District: Stoke Upon Trent; County: Staffordshire; Volume: 6b; Page: 269.

Jane Ackerley arrived with 117 children from the Catholic Protection Society of Liverpool en route to Knowlton, Quebec, Canada. Mrs. Lacy in charge. Males 13 and over listed as "labourer"; females 13 and older listed as "domestic"; those 12 and under listed as "child".

On March 16, 1897, Jane Ackley, 21, married William Charles Hogan, 23, both of Kingston, Frontenac, Ontario, Canada. Jane declared that she was born in England, that her father's name was Richard Ackley and she did not know her mother's name.

(Sidenote: William and Jane Hogan's son, John Hogan, married Gladys Barrow in Kingston, Frontenac, Ontario, Canada, on November 24, 1915. He went on to enlist in World War I in the Canadian Armed Forces.)

(Sidenote: Between 1871 and 1900, there is listed only one Richard Ackley, or any variant of the surname thereof, in Staffordshire. Richard Ackley, born c. 1841, in Longton, Staffordshire, England, was a housepainter married in 1861 Martha Elizabeth Colclough, born in America c. 1845. They had numerous children. Richard Ackley died in 1892 in Staffordshire, and Martha Elizabeth remarried either a Mr. Jones or a Mr. Carter in 1901. There is no definite documentation that this is the correct Ackley family, and does seem somewhat odd that the children wouldn't know their mother's name, however, this information is presented as a research possibility.)
