    NOTE 2./ Immigration Research

    Arthur "Bo" Wilkes, age 16, arrived with his sister, Elsie, age 6, in the care of their Uncle, Frederick Wilkes, age 48, on the SS Sagamore in Boston Massachusets. The SS Sagamore sailed from Liverpool, England on September 26, 1906, and arrived in Boston on October7, 1906. Fredericks occupation was listed as a Foreman/Cattleman, while Elsie listed as a child, is overwritten with Asst. Stewardess. "Bo" was listed a Steward, and seems to be overwritten as a Locksmith. Both "Bo" and Elsies last residence is given as Birmingham, UK, and final destination as Toronto, Canada on this original manifest. The childrens passage was paid for by Frederick Wilkes and were going to live with him at #40, Bolton Avenue, Toronto, Canada.

    Frederick married Jane PARKER in Dec 1876 in Birmingham, Warwickshire, England. Jane was born in Dec 1856 in Birmingham, Warwick, England; died after 1911 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
