John Sage was previously at the

at the Bentinck for some nine months. He then took a baker's shop (With
off-licence attached) in
Peterborough before travelling to Canada in 1911 where he was employed as an
inspector on the railway. Visiting the United States he purchased a fruit
farm in Jacksonville, California. He returned to England to take his wife
and family to their new home. The journey to the United States was as third
class passengers. The names on the booking were John Sage, Annie Sage,
Stella Sage, George Sage, Douglas Sage, Frederick Sage, Dorothy Sage,
William Sage (child), Ada Sage (child), Constance Sage (child) and
Thomas Sage (Child). They were due to sail from Liverpool on the
