Note from Jenny Catterick : It is possible that George Henry Smerdon came to Ontario, Canada, with his brother James Weeks Smerdon. He and his wife Sarah gave birth to a daughter in Thorold before they returned to England. I found the birth announcement. I know he returned to Liverpool with Sarah and lived with Sarah's parents. The Ontario Birth Index stated that Elizabeth Jane Smerdon was born in Thorold Township on the 29th of November, 1874. Information from George Smerdon. Mother Sarah Green.
