Rose Cheetham2

I have finally found the record of Rose Cheetham's outward journey to Canada in 1927. She made the journey with her daughter, Ethel, and her husband. Another daughter, Edith, was already in Canada. Her son, Horace, followed some months later.

Rose Cheetham

Just discovered from the British Newspaper Archive that one of my ancestors, Rose Cheetham, was dicovered floating in the canal at Nottingham after attempting suicide by cutting her throat. Luckily she was spotted by a passing policeman and taken to hospital. Unluckily, after spending a few weeks in the General Hospital she was in court on a charge of attempted suicide.
On her first appearance she was remanded by the magistrates, but I can find no further information about the case.
