Paul Victor BELL
« on: Thursday 16 March 17 08:54 GMT (UK) »
I have hit a brick wall. The above and his wife Esther were on a baptism record in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada in 1910. I know they were Scottish but cannot trace them on any other Canadian record nor can I find them leaving Britain. The only other info I have is that Paul''s father was Roland. Can anyone help?

Have you tried Scotland's People www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk?
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

The only close match marriage I could see was -
Victor Paul J A Frontgous / Esther Sowersby , 1874 , Port Glasgow Renfrew.

Yes I have tried Scotlandspeople but drawn a blank. I believe the couple plus Roland went to Canada but I can't even find them on a passenger list!

There is further information here on this search - risk of duplication of effort!
