My grandfather Ernest Samuel Jerrett emigrated to canada from England after the First World War.He was born in 1882.He settled in Manitoba. He left a sister behind and I believe her name was Phoebe. Ancestors included a sailor named Samuel Jerrett who died in Hong Kong in his early 20's, laving a young family behind in England Is it possible Phoebe, Ernest's sister, is the same woman from Cavendish? Could this be her? Phoebe is such an unusual name. I can't recall from the family what happened to her, I assumed she stayed in England. If this looks promising to you, I will look into it further. This would make us third cousins!
