In 1893, Julia Anderson, 14, arrived at Quebec, Canada, in a group of 75 Barnardo girls en route to Peterborough, Ontario, Canada.

A son, Charles Anderson, was born on December 18, 1900, to Julia Anderson, address not stated. The birth was registered by Alfred B Owen on December 22, 1900 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. [EDITORS NOTE: No further information can be found on Charles Anderson. No death certificate was found, so he most likely was adopted out.]

On April 30, 1902, at Russell, Manitoba, Canada, a marriage was registered between Julia Agnes Anderson, 27, born in Sunderland, England, to Charles Anderson and Margaret Greener; and another home child, Benjamin George Dunford, 26, farmer, born in Bath, England, to Morris Dunford and Sarah Collins. Witnesses: James McKay and Mary McKay, Russell, Manitoba, Canada.

Benjamin George and Julia Agnes Anderson Dunford had at least 4 children: Florence "Emily" Dunford, born February 7, 1904, in Russell, Manitoba, Canada; William "Garnet" Dunford, born March 28, 1906, in Russell, Manitoba, Canada; Patricia Dunford, born July 25, 1909, in Manitoba, Canada; and Harold Dunford, born about 1913 in Saskatchewan, Canada.

"DUNFORD, Benjamin George and Julia

They both emigrated to Canada from England in 1886 [sic] and met at Russell, Man. where they were married in 1902. George and Julia moved to Wroxton, Sask. in 1911 where Mr. Dunford was a barber. George served in the First World War overseas with the 188th battalion. He hauled supplies to the front line with a team of mules. They left Wroxton in 1919 and moved to the [Goldbank district north of] Stenen where they farmed until retirement in 1958 when they moved to Sturgis. George and Julia had four children Emily (Lloyd Chase); after Lloyd died, she later married (Clary Jones), Garnet (Eva), Pat (Stan Feader), Harold (Verna). George died in 1966 and Julia in 1975."
