Thanks a lot, yes those will be my Thomson Lawrie Mason's. About 30 years ago my parents went to Woodstock to visit them.

Hi Tracy,
Please can you check Saskatchewan deaths for a William McIntosh born Scotland 1854.He farmed in the Dunelm county in SW Saskatchewan near Swift Current and was there in the 1811 census,with wife Elizabeth about seven years younger than himself.He may have died in 1933 but that is not certain.
Grateful for the look-up.
Joan

Tracey,

There's a possibility that my ancestor emigrated to Canada/USA at around 1881. He was William Tinkler (b. 1839). I have tried the Canadian 1901 census, but with no luck. If you can try all of your sources I'd be very grateful.

Many thanks,
Robin Tinkler

Hi Traci,
I asked Lorraine weeks ago and I don't think that she is around to do this at the moment, so although it's not normal to ask someone else could you take a look please?
It's great of you to offer to do this, I know it must take a lot of your time doing something like this so thanks in advance.

I am trying to trace the following family who moved to the USA between 1871 ( England census) and 1880.
I have pasted the 1880 American census entry that I have from the free Ancestry.com site, with which format you are probably familiar, and I would like to know more about what happened to the family in America,
Can you help please?

I know that they travelled over from Liverpool in the "City of Richmond" in 1873 and have found them in the passenger lists.
I would be grateful if you could help trace them further.
