Re Teresa's Canadian Arrival Form 30A - it records Mary was married on her return to Canada in 1922. She had the option of single, widowed, married.

as they were so close to the USA border it does question whether they died in the USA or England as they had no children makes it difficult to trace

Hi Teresa and Mark
You have picked up the right details I would say that the fact she went on her own would say Henry may have died? They had no children Henrys siblings were living in and around Stratford Warks his parents died 1903 not managed to find anything re deaths
