Artiss Howard

Mike Fisher

Billesley Boy
Hi All

In the 1911 census I have Howard and Jessie Mary Artiss with their two young sons Norman and Frank Dunlop in Hampton Court Rd Harborne. I can find no record of Howard, Jessie after this date.
Norman marries in Portland USA in 1912 and Frank Dunlop Artiss dies in Canada in 1974.
In Ancestry there are 4 entries for Howard Artiss ,3 Atlantic port passenger lists and 1 Canadian passenger lists but I only have a .co.uk subscription. Also Norman Artiss in border crossings Canada to USA
