    2. Sheila Lafleur
    3. Hi list I am looking for my husbands granny. Tilda Viianen she was born Sept. 25th 1890 in Uurainen, Finland. I Believe she arrived in Canada in 1910 "she worked in a hat factory in Helsinki where she met a lady who was leaving for Canada to join her husband in the West. She coaxed Mother to go along to help her with the children and paid her way in return. Mother had been in touch with Father;s half sister Ruusa, there was a distant relationship. While passing through Copper Cliff on route to the West she stopped to give "regards" to Father. As the pictures show, Mother was a beauty and Father kept her for himself." a generous lady gave me the following info she thought close... Last name Wiinanen First names Tilta Age or age group 22 Port of departure Helsinki Place of destination Copper Cliff State of destination ON Country of destination CDN Price of ticket USD 53 Ship from Finland Titania Date of departure from Finland 11.05.1910 Ship from England Corsican Date of departure from England 19.05.1910 Ocean Line Allan Line Port of departure in England * List and page 81/8 . I would love to find her on a passenger list if one is out there. thanks Sheila
