Thanks Rebecca. Sorry I took so long to get back to you...I've been off trying to unearth more of my maternal grandmother's Curry ancestors in N.E England this past week. Alf often seemed to use Canada as an entry and exit point for his travels to and from the U.K., for some reason, which is why I wondered if he and Zoe had gone to visit his folks 'back home'. I'm not sure whether it was cheaper to travel that particular route, or just more convenient for him. Either way, it would be interesting to see why he was in Canada in 1917.
