Sonleys and Waite

Response to grandparents of Betty Sonley

 

There is a Lillian Sonley connected with the Robert and Mary Ann Edith (Waite) Marrion family. I believe it is Lillian Marrion. I have pictures of her and maybe one or more of the Sonleys.

Mary Ann Edith's mother was Phyllis Ann Waite and her father was John Waite. The piece of paper I wrote this on says that their family's abode was Barford, England.

Robert and Mary Ann Edith Marrion immigrated in 1886. According to their 50th wedding anniversary article, I know they first went to Victoria, BC, Canada and Mary Ann didn't like it. They then arrived in Vancouver, BC Canada the day after the great fire that burned much of Vancouver (have picture of them in a tent city) and later lived near water (bay maybe)where they either used as a cabin or a home. They also had a home in Vancouver, BC city. I will try and resort through what I do have at a later date and let you know what else I find. I do have a few family records (bible excerpts) if you are interested.
