That would be them alright, arriving 1887. Kate 18, is there too.

Yes, there are Ontario marriage records for all the kids that came over with them, except John Henry...think that might read Jno, on the passenger list, instead of Jas.

Is the Thomas (the 1st) you are searching for the Thomas who left Wigan (Lancs) about 1750 to 1780 to help start the coal mining industry in Tipperary. he went with other family members and had several children. two of them were Mary louise Webster b. about 1775 who married william Cantelon(De Cantillon) and later went to Canada. and Daniel Webster b. about 1798.He married Susan Pearson and they went to Canada also about 1830 with three children James robert and Thomas. They subsequently had at least six further children in Canada.

"Thomas the first" may in fact have been the first of the Websters in Tipperary
The coal mine continued until as recently as the 1950s
the 1901 and 1911 Census shows about nine Webster families all in and arround Kilcooly,the Common, Ballingary etc and its significant that many of them were coal miners all quite possibly descendants of Thomas and his brothers
Hope this helps please post if it does
