Thanks, all. I'd never have thought of Boga! With your help I was able to find the original census on the Libraries Canada web site. And yes, that is the right birth - I found the original on the Irish Genealogy web site, and he was indeed born in Ringabella, in August 1872. His father was a coastguard and his parents were still in Co Cork in 1901.

Hi,

The Canadian Passenger list 1930 on the Laurentic, he gives nearest relative as Elizabeth,

Thank you very much for that, dbree.

I am at a loss to know what to make of Elizabeth Little, shown as 'Mother' on the line below him!

And I have failed to find Elizabeth Brand in the 1930 census in Maryland, so far.
