Hi, My name is Dianne and I have relatives in Canada. My problem is that I have little information about how the family first arrived there. I do know that Henry Batchelor who was born in Hastings East Sussex England in 1894 joined the Canadian Expeditionary Force 45th Battalion in 1915. My research suggests that the 45th Battalion was known as the Manitoba regiment. So I am hoping that I might find out something from this list. Today I have relatives in Winnipeg and Brandon who descend from Henry's brother Charles and sister Louise who also emigrated in the early 1900's. I have a copy of Henry's attestation papers which gives the name of the place where he joined-up. It appears to read "Shornecliffe," can anyone tell me whether there is a town by that name in Manitoba? He gave his occupation as "farmer." I am also looking for the father of the above siblings (Charles) who died in Canada around 1910 before his family could join him. No one knows where he died or what he was doing, it is thought that his children Charles, Henry and Louise all emigrated separately within a few years). All I know is that he died of a fever. Hoping that someone can give me a hand in the right direction as my relatives in Canada and Britain are all of later generations and have been unable to help. Best wishes Dianne
