In earlier postings, people wondering about Jessie Ryder's mother, Fanny Ryder. Hope this helps:

1891 census 42 Clifon Place, Plymouth

Albert J Cook, 26, post office clerk
Fanny E A Cook, 26,
Cyril Cook, under 1
Fanny Ryder, mother-in-law, married, 48, vocalist (music), born Devonport

When Fanny marries Albert in London, Alfred Ryder, acountant and Thaddeus Ryder are witnesses. Thaddeus Albert's brother.

Perhaps from this we can assume that Fanny was the one who pushed three of her daughters on to the stage.

Can't find Fanny in the 1901 census.

1911 census - 45 Upper Bedford Place, Russell Square

Fanny Ryder, 70, widow, boarder
Patty Auld, 28, daughter, married, boarder, manicurist [? unclear]

Patty married James Morrison Auld in 1902.

Also found these trans Atlantic crossings:

Sept 1925 Southampton to New York
Harry Finkler, director, Jessie Finkler,
Address in UK: Victoria Hotel, London

Feb 1929 Southampton to New York
Harry Finckley, theatrical, Jessie Finckley, Harry Finckley, actor,
Address in UK: 82 Guildford Street, London
