Grace Agnes Beach left England on the 7th June 1924 on the Empress of France shwe was 27 years of age and travelling alone. I believe she was heading to Quebec with the intention of travelling inland to be married to a William Poole. I would be most grateful if anyone can add any information at all to this as I can find nothing of what became of Grace. Thanks for reading this. Ray raymond.bocking@tesco.net
Hi Ray, If you have a Ancestry.com subscription you'll be able to find her online because the period she arrived was called the "Form 30A" period ... 1919-1924 ... where a seperate manifest page was kept for each person and Ancestry has scanned them and made they searchable. Canada Records information (with links to record sources) http://www.theshipslist.com/Research/canadarecords.htm This will be her voyage details. EMPRESS OF FRANCE Southampton, England 1924-06-07 / Cherbourg, France Quebec, Que. / Montreal, Que. 1924-06-13 (CPSSC) Canadian Pacific Steamships, Ltd. I had a peek at her Form 30A and she was going to William Alfred Poole at Buttress, Saskatchewan.
