Thank you so much .. not sure how you found it on the usa census i have been using all sorts of permitations of the names without success. You have answered one question tho. he did not marry.

On his immigration record in 1928 he gives name of his mother in Jamaica as Isabel Soares. Says he's going to join friend Richard Jackson in New York City.

On this one he gives the name of nearest friend or relative from whence he came as cousin Richard Jackson, New York City and says he's going to join friend William Teapier also NYC.
