Photos | Lenore Driver and George Robbins - October 30, 1942 George Robbins was Lenore's second husband. Her first died following a car accident in 1939. |
Documents | Wedding Certificate - Lenore Driver Two points of interest in this document: 1) Lenore's age being 17. On the date of the marriage, January 18, 1935, Lenore was shy of her 15th birthday. Her age accords with the Census record of 1921 with her mother Eunice in Winnipeg, Manitoba as being 1 year old in 1920. 2) The name of her father Herbert Thomas Driver. Herbert had 3 children with Eunice before WWI. While in England, he met Gladys Killner. Herbert returned to Canada from the war in February/March 1919 and Gladys followed in October 1919. The two moved to British Columbia/Alberta with Herbert's three eldest kids from his marriage with Eunice and he and Gladys had three more. Lenore's conception date is the summer of 1919 which means, I say, the documents demonstrate he reconnected with his ex-wife while waiting for Gladys to move from England. Lenore's last name in the Census records are Galloway and I have been unable to find any records of her father being the purported Galloway. | |
Death Certificate John Sheridan Death as a result of perforated bowel and peritonitis after a motor vehicle accident. |
Census | Census - Manitoba - 1921 - Eunice Driver Residence at 587 Main Street, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Eunice Driver - 33 Lenore Galloway - 1 I am unable to reconcile Lenore's last name as Galloway. Her marriage certificate in her first marriage states that her father is Herbert "Nick" Driver. Herbert's military records demonstrate that he returned to Canada in March, 1919 from the war. In October, 1919, his second partner (and potentially wife but there is a dispute in the family as to whether they legitimately were married) arrived in Canada from England. Given her birth-date, and the marriage certificate, I hypothesize that Herbert re-connected with his first partner (Eunice) and conceived Lenore. It appears on Gladys' arrival that Eunice and her youngest traveled east to Oshawa and her three eldest went west to British Columbia with their father (and step-mother). |
