Alice and Frederick seperated and Alice went to Canada where she was involved in a pedestrian vehicle accident. The two girls were placed in an orphanage, and mother Alice moved to New York. Alice is believed to have died in United States or Canada but she did come back to visit the girls from time to time."

bullet  Research Notes:

August 21, 2010
Hi Jim:

Well, I spent today digging into our friend Alice again. Been trying to find a Harry Vigurs that would fit the dates we have managed to acquire.

I've been prompted by the recent visit with Ruth and Florence to see Catharine and Penny and have to tell you, I came away with my mind full of more questions! I have to say, there are some things that don't make sense, so it seems the best approach is to take very small steps in order to establish some reliable facts, and eliminate conjecture. This is all "off the cuff" for discussion purposes. It's just that two or more heads are sure better than one.

So now I'll proceed with conjecture.....

Catharine is such a neat lady and if you get a cup of tea, sit back with her and relax, she can take her time and think way back about what her life's experiences were. This is where we can pick up tidbits here, tidbits there and see what starts forming parts of her history.

I asked her about Roseberry House and if she recollected how she might have ended up there; moreover how long she might have lived there and with whom. e.g. did she have any recollection of Harry Vigurs? She speculated that perhaps he owned Roseberry and maybe even hired Denyse Thauvron. Also said her mother did stay there as well.

Then I asked if she could recall what age she might have been when she was sent to the orphanage in Swansea and did she know the name of it. I made notes for myself and later when we got back to Ruth's, we thought some clarification was needed as well as how Catharine got from an orphanage in Swansea and into nurse's training in London. Ruth talked to her mum the next day and got a bit more info:

Catharine was put with a family in Oxwich near Swansea. There was a father, mother and a little boy about the same age as Catharine. She thinks she was there before age 6 and probably stayed with them 1-2 years.
She then went into the orphanage in Swansea, might be St. Dunstan and we think would have been Catholic as Denyse had her baptized in an RC church on the Isle of Wight.

Catharine also mentioned that it was the people at the orphanage who told her they were really impressed her mum especially her ability with languages. So I'm asking where and why would they have been talking to her mum? Oh, they went to New York to look at her circumstances because she wanted to bring Catherine to New York. Ruth twigged immediately said whispered "I bet it was Denyse Thauvron", and we both think that's who they were talking to because it certainly sounds like Denyse was one of the women who put Catharine into "care".

My "evidence" is as follows: The earliest record of Denyse on the NY Passenger Lists is 1927 when she arrived in October from Cherbourg. Her occupation is teacher and could speak English, French, Spanish and Russian. Also the copy of Catharine's baptism showed it was verified in 1934. Catharine would have been 14 by then. Ruth found out from her mum that she went directly from Swansea to London into training at age 17.

Back to Alice: You were able to locate her working as a domestic in St Pancras on the 1911 Census with a family headed by Howard Angus Kennedy.
Did you notice that their daughter was born in Quebec? Also when Alice came to Canada, she was to work as a domestic for a family named Kennedy in Ottawa. Says I to myself, this looks a bit more than coincidental.
Turns out this Howard Kennedy made many trips between the UK and Canada, in fact, in November 1932 he noted he had lived in Ottawa between April 1881 and Oct 1932, and his address was 603 The Aylmer's, Ottawa, Ont.
Bingo!!!!!! Now we know why Alice decided to come to Canada - she had a job with the same Kennedy family she worked for in 1911 before she married Morad. Actually in 1933 Mr Kennedy said he lived 1881-1933 in Montreal and the address was 5010 Sherbrooke St W, Montreal.

A little tidbit to add: their son roderick Kennedy, joined up in WW1 and gave his next of kin as H A Kennedy of Lacombe, Alberta. (ref Canada Archives.. Roderick Stewart Kennedy , a farmer, born Dec 16, 1890 in Montreal West. next of kin H. A. Kennedy in Lacombe Alberta)

I know this is a long and dragged out missive from me and I hope I have put it all in some sort of logical order. Not all of this is suitable for the web, but if you tell me what is appropriate, I can organize and send it back to you for ease of input.

By the way, Harry Vigurs? There is a wad of them in Fulham and there is a Harry born 4Q 1887 Vol 1a page 255, that might fit the bill, but I haven't managed anything more. Looking at the occupations of the various Vigur names, I don't see anyone who might have afforded Roseberry House.

Did find in the Wills website a Laura Vigurs (Vicurs) of 9 Goodhall-street, Willesden Junction Middlesex, Widow, died 7 Mar 1915 at Kingswood-road, Chiswick, Middlesex. administration London 31 Mar to Harry Vigurs, Constable. Effects 162 pounds 4s 10d. This is probably Harry Last Vigurs, the policeman who died before Spencer Dyson did, which just adds to the confusion as to whether it was Morad or Vigurs that Grethe told Catharine to go after for some money after Spencer died.

That's it -- thanks for being patient with me!
Maureen

Jim:

Sometimes I have to look again and again to see info you have already recorded on the web.

You retrieved her emigration info from "Find My Past" and have highlighted at the bottom that she had given her last permanent address as being:

Gohens Burton, Villaney Cottage, Oxwich

Of course, as we learned from Catharine, she lived with a family in Oxwich before she went to the orphanage in Swansea. It then looks more and more possible that it really was Alice that arranged for Catharine to enter the orphanage before she immigrated to Canada, and not Denyse Thauvron.

I've attached the 2 immigration documents: Alice's, which shows her coming to work for the Kennedy family and the 1932 record of Howard Kennedy (who Alice was working for in 1911 England Census) living at the same address in Ottawa that Alice arrived at in 1925. This place in Swansea might have been a boarding school rather than just an orphanage???

That Catharine still has a pretty good memory, doesn't she.

Cheers, Maureen.

James,

Re Alice (Allsop) Morad:

The only thing I would like to add is that as far as anyone knows her move to America was possibly precipitated by the death of her husband. She left the girls in the custody of two maiden lady friends and went to New York first and then later to Canada. She was living in New York in 1947/48 when Mum and I came to Canada as we stopped and visited her and we had portraits done with her. She apparently came seeking work but was in an accident and very badly injured and so the girls were sent to school in Greta's case and an orphanage in my mum's case. I don't think they ever expected her to survive. Ruth (Dyson) O'Doherty, June 3, 2005

Oct 22, 2010. Searched SSN death registrations again looking for any Alice with birth date of March 25, 1888 and only found 1 item even close to New York state and that was for :

death date: Nov 1972, age 84.

Received this SSN application all ok a few weeks later, and it was not our gal Alice Morad.. It was clearly for a spinster Alice Chambers, born in New Brunswick.. too bad. jca.. Now to order the one for the above Alice Morad , even tho the birth date does not match our Alice Morad.. have to order anyway.. jca

_______________________________________________________
I will try and find more about the family in the new year. I have always thought that grandmother's maiden name was Randal or Randall. Grandfather was a Rhinelander, I believe, but I don't think my mother ever knew whether he was from the German or the French side. He seemed to like the idea of being which ever of the two nationalities suited at the time. His surname was Morad. He seems to have used Fritz, Francois or Francis as first names. I have never known Alice as "Allsop", but only ever heard her referred to as Alice Randal, Alice Randal Morad or Alice Morad, except that I believe she remarried when she went to USA, but I do not recollect the name of the man she married. I shall let you know as and when I discover more.
Best wishes to you all from the family here for Chritmas and 2003.

14 Dyson, Mrs. Catherine, personal knowledge, 2005, Mrs. Catherine (Morad) Dyson, Kelowna, B.C. June 2005. :
Catherine Dyson and daughter Ruth Dyson flew to New York and visited Alice Morad about 1946. Alice had been working for Rand McNally for some years prior to time as she spoke about seven languages and was useful to Rand McNally in their map making. Alice was living in a house at that time and also had a small private school that she operated out of her home.
Catherine knew the whereabouts of her mother Alice as a wife of one of the directors of the orphanage in England where Catherine was raised had visited with Alice earlier. The wife apparently was very impressed with Alice's abilities.

Catherine feels that Alice would have been in the USA prior to 1940 so won't likely be picked up on the (Canadian) National Registration File of 1940. A search for Alice Morad on the latest released census of the USA (1930) unfortunately has not been successful. A photo of Alice was taken during their visit with her in New York.
