There are many trips for Annie Park/McGeachie, but I can't tell which ones are yours, so haven't posted them.

Have posted New York details as name is unusual and could well be your Dugald.

EDIT See below

Andy

Oops, sorry, I just noticed it was New York.

Andrew, thank you again, is there any sign of his wife please?
Can I ask if anyone would have any idea why he made so many trips to and fro from Canada?

and

maybe his son?
