Brother Christopher Heard also seems to stay in the USA and married with children.
There is a death 25 Feb 1931 - Manhattan - for Christopher Heard aged 47 years.

Thanks Sandra - you have been busy!

So, William's brother Christopher also emigrated! There's one of Flora Maggie's sisters - Fanny Maud - who I can't find in the UK after the 1911 census and wondered if she may have emigrated as well. I haven't found anything so far though.

Thanks for all your help.
