2011 is special for Stephen & Sarah (Catterall) Carr's family

In 1911 Stephen Carr left Liverpool, England on the Ship "Carthaginin" and arrived at Halifax, Nova Scotia on April 23, 1911. He was a proud father of 6 children; however, by the time he'd see his family again later that year the baby "Mary Jane Carr" had passed away on their trip over.

About 5 months later, Sarah and the children leave Liverpool, England on the Ship "Mongolian" and arrived at Halifax, Nova Scotia on September 22, 1911. The story has it that Sarah Jane (Catterall) Carr held Little Mary the whole time after her death, because Sarah didn't want Little Mary to be buried at sea. On the passenger list as the person checked each person off with a check mark, they wrote "dead" next to Mary Jane Carr.
