I'm not sure if Alice Amez-Droz is related to Fanny Elise Amez-Droz. I was able to find FAnny's parents, but there was no mention of siblings, or other relations.

My parents are also buried in the same Church Cemetery in Summerland. Have not been on Genes Reunited for a couple of years, but want to finish up,

He was a passenger on the 1902 sailing

:-)Hello:

Wow, thanks so much for the information, yes, you have the correct person, we have never been able to find how our grandparents met, Fanny Amez-Droz was from Switzerland, and Reginald Eckersley, from Ulverston England. They did marry in Sapperton New Westminster Canada.

I will start checking the information on the ship name you mentioned. You really know how to get information fast.

Thanks again, :)

Hello:

I am looking for information on my grandfather Reginald Ambrose Eckersley. youngest child of Holland Eckersley, and Anne Fearney from Lancashire. I would like to know if anyone has information on when my grandfather left England for Canada, and also what ship he was on, or port he left from. Year just guessing, might have been 1905.

Thanks: Barbara
