Now trying to find out about Frederick Bray born circa1882 Fred his wife Louise and two children Molly and Louise emigrated to Canada about 1918 I cannot find them on any passenger lists they were going to settle in Ontario

Fred's arrival in Canada?

Name: Frederick Bray
Arrival Date: 9 Sep 1911
Age: 29
Birth Date: abt 1882
Birth Country: England
Gender: Male
Race/Nationality: English

Ship Name: Ascania
Port of Arrival: Quebec, Quebec, Canada
Port of Departure: Southampton, England

Not sure about this one, he's heading to Ironwood, Michigan. His wife is K. Bray, Bosveal, Cornwall.

How about this one?

Name: Frederick Bray
Gender: Male
Age: 31
Estimated birth year: abt 1882
Birth Country: England
Date of Arrival: 1 Mar 1913
Vessel: Empress of Ireland
Search Ship Database: View the 'Empress of Ireland' in the 'Passenger Ships and Images' database
Port of Arrival: St.John, New Brunswick
Port of Departure: Liverpool, England

He has a wife Louisa with him. No children though. Fred says he had been in Canada before between 1906 to 1912. he was an electrician heading to Hamilton, Ontario.

Do not think this is him his wife was defnitely called louise and there were two children

Could this be Frederick & Louisa on the 1911 census in Canada?

Sorry, Trevor, I'm really confusing the issue on this one!

i believe the Empress of Ireland is them in 1901 there was a Loisa Turner living in the same house hold did he marry her he was a carpenter then but what happend to the two children

can i reopen this search for Thomas Bray's parents names the 1851 census results above are correct

Hi Trevor
The Help Clinic has actually closed now but I think we can still work on the threads that were open at the time. I think I looked for Thomas Bray's parents at the time but couldn't locate them but I will take another look for you. The problem is that he gives his birth place as Truro and I can't find a baptism located anywhere near there.

Does anybody have access to the 1916 Canadian census looking for Frederick & Louise Bray arrived in Canada 01-03-1913 they were heading for Hamilton Ontario could be children Molly & Louise

I am still trying to find this one

The 1916 Canadian census only covers Manitoba, Alberta and Saskachewan and they are not there I'm afraid.

thank you for trying, also could you tell me if i buy a 1808 birth cert. from GRO what information will i get on it

There are no birth certificates before 1837.

Thank you i would have looked a bit of an idiot trying to order one.

I must thank all of you for the help i have received since joining this site.

STILL TRYING TO FIND FRED AND LOUSE IN CANADA ANY IDEAS AND IF THEY DID HAVE TWO CHILDREN

What evidence do you have that he married a Louise and had two children and then went to Canada.
