Portland Rose,
Thank you for the information on Arthur's death, I am presuming it is him going by the d.o.b. I know his brother went from Canada to U.S.A in 1922 and married there, he died in 1968 in Florida. I am wondering if Arthur went with his brother in 1922 and if he married and had children in America.
regards
jean

Here are the 1911 census images that alviegal found:
http://data2.collectionscanada.gc.ca/1911/pdf/e002028433.pdf
http://data2.collectionscanada.gc.ca/1911/pdf/e002028434.pdf

Ada's dob has been altered to read Feb 1891 and Edward's altered to Dec 1897.
Arthur's has not been altered and reads May 1908 and his age is 18.
I think the enumerator has made an error, and his dob should read May 1893.
(This page of the census was done 2-3/6/1911, and is supposed to reflect the status on 1/6/1911)
I think the 1908 should appear in his y.o.immigration column, which has been left blank for all 3, although their pob=Scotland for all 3.


Arthur is a Salesman in a Butcher Store, which matches his 10-xx-18 code Ada is an Operator at a White Ware place, and her code 7-xx-89 matches White wear maker. I'm not sure what this is - undergarments perhaps?

Hi Liz,
Thank you for replying, yes this is him in 1911 with his brother and sister.
All the family stayed in Canada except for brother Edward who went to the states in 1922 and married there, but I know nothing about Arthur .

Do you think this might be him in 1911? He is a salesman but his birth date does look like 1903.

I have found what I believe to be Arthur Good's death in 1982 in Florida on family search. Arthur was born in 1903 in Scotland and went to Canada with his family re the 1911 Canadian census
I wonder if someone could tell me how I could find out when he went to U.S.A. and if he married there.

Thank yoy
jean
