How much research have you managed to do since 2011?

When you find out Hannah's married name, you can look for her death at...........

http://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

Look for info about George and Anne on freebmd........as above.

Also, look for info on the 1871 and 1881 censuses, which are both free......and in full......on familysearch site

Started looking for my ancestors again.
Hannah Packer was also born in Canada in 1876. I am sure she married and know she died in England around the Stonebridge, Wembley districts in Middlesex.

Also have you any more information about George and Anne Packer, where they were born, married and died

Any information would be great
Regards

Susan Report 26 May 2011 18:13

Have hit a brickwall tracing my Packer family. Joseph Packer was born 1852, married Rachel (I believe Jones). They had 3 children, Edwin, Rosena and Hannah (both born in Toronto). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
