Marriage Certificates for Emma Pearce/Fricker.
According to Somerville66 on Blogspot.com, "By 1906 Emma had moved to the Shambles off the High Street. Her 9-year-old son Charles Henry Fricker had been sent to Dr Barnardo’s and in 1905 he had sailed on the SS Dominion with a group of British Home Children to live in Ontario, Canada. Her younger son William John can be found in 1911 as one of 1073 boys at the Royal Navy Training Establishment in HMS Ganges, Shotley, Suffolk... Charles Fricker married Pearl Teskey in 1914 and they had ten children. He died in North Bay, Ontario in 1973. He had been joined in Canada by his brothers Albert and William and also by his mother Emma and all three also died in Ontario.
William John Fricker had a particularly successful life. He moved on from training school to the navy throughout World War One and was promoted to officer status in 1918. After visiting Canada in 1923, he returned to Guildford to marry Amy Ann Lefevre in his smart naval uniform. Lieutenant Commander William Fricker received the King’s Silver Jubilee medal in 1935 and served with the Canadian navy during World War Two.
...He met Amy Lefevre in North Bay, Ontario when visiting his brother Charles in Canada. After he returned to Guildford, Amy followed some months later. The couple returned to Canada just before World War Two." For more information, see https://somerville66.blogspot.com/2016/01/on-cold-winters-night.htmlDate(s) of Creation
