Hi Lucy, I have now tried looking for a marriage in England for Clarice and Joseph Burton, but no luck. Perhaps the ship’s Captain married them before the boat sailed with Clarice alone. It is definitely a puzzle. The child that Clarice left behind in England had the surname Pugh so she was not a Burton.

There was a Burton family living in the City of Verdun in that Census; the father was Joseph Burton, his wife was Heneley(sic) and they had twin 3 year old sons named Joseph and Alfred who were born in England; religion was Anglican. The father's occupation was a dispatcher. I looked at the Passenger Records and found: 1) that Clarice Pughe, aged 30, arrived on 17 November 1928 at Port of Quebec from Liverpoolm having sailed from there on 9 November 1928. She had assisted passage, her occupation was a cook and her destination was The Canadian Women's Hostel, 72 Carleton street, Toronto, ON; her mother's name was given as Mrs. L.E. Pughe, 8 Beardwood, Blackburn. 2) that the CPR ship Montclare sailed from Liverpool and arrived at Halifax, Nova Scotia on 18 February 1933 with Mrs. Clarice Burton as a passenger, giving her place of birth as Blackburn, her age as 32, and that her mother was Mrs. Elizabeth Pughe, and her husband was Joseph Burton and address was the Eadie street on in Cote St. Paul. I have not yet been able to locate a marriage between Burton & Pughe/Pugh in Quebec and perhaps it took place in Ontario. Unfortunately the Ontario marriage records are not yet available for the period following 1924. Hope this is helpful.

Further to recent message from Bertrand - ..........and as Ontario records for marriages are not available after 1928; nothing shows up in Ancestry for a Burton/Pughe marriage and since neither were in Canada for the 1921 Census - there isn't much to work with.

I have been following this thread and it seems to me some information has been misinterpreted, leading you to conclude she was married in England. In fact, it seems to me that she came over alone in 1928 to work and Toronto, but that she rapidly ended up in Montreal. She married a Burton, either in Ontario or in Montreal, and had a child in Montreal. She seems then to have made a trip to England (to visit her mother?) from which she returned in 1933, duly called Mrs Burton and said to be living on Eadie street in Montreal.
