Alfred Stanley Ellis - Passenger between UK and Canada, born September 1891

[donut 2]

I am trying to learn more about Alfred Stanley Ellis who was born in September 1891, I think perhaps in the UK.
I believe he is sometimes listed as Alfred Stanley Ellis and sometimes as just Stanley Ellis
In 1931 he travelled to St John from Liverpool on the Duchess of York, Occupation Gov Staff, Residence Canada, residence in UK, Old St James House,  Park Place, City of Westminster.
In 1939 he travelled from Liverpool to St John , again on the Duchess of York
In the 1939 register he is listed as living 7 Park Place (Also known as Old St James House), city of Westminster and occupation is Engineer, Ford Motor Company.?
In 1940 he travelled from Canada to Liverpool, giving his address as Canada House.

In 1939, he is listed as married but I have not been able to find any history of his marriage.

I would like to learn more, if possible of his time in Canada as in 1931 he give his residence as Canada.

Would be grateful for any help and or guidance as to where I might look for more information.
Many thanks Tunod

Thank you both, are you able to see what his occupation was to perhaps confirm it is the same Alfred Stanley Ellis and could you tell me when his wife died.

I  appreciate your help.

Unfortunately the marriage record does not give Alfred's occupation.

 Shame about the marriage cert. Would you perhaps be able to see any details of his military record?.

Thanks for all this info JJ - could you tell me when he died and if it is possible for me to look up his Obituary somewhere.  I am hoping that might tell me what he got up to in the war in order to earn his OBE. Regards Tunod

It is possible you could be looking at two people with same name.  The skill and educational requirement to be employed in as a Bureaucrat is completely different than an Engineer. 

However, as a Government Employee https://www.canada.ca/en/treasury-board-secretariat/topics/access-information-privacy/access-information.html you can make a request.
