Hi Dont have much more to go on I found him listed in tucson Arizona. And It said he came from Devonshire England to U.S. arround 1895 I couldnt find anything on him. I was thinking if ther were no others he might have been My long lost Uncle Charles that vanished arround 1895. If you could list the ones you find would be greatly appreciated al b

Hi Suz Can you find this fellow on any later census. There must have been two of them have to find out if he lived on He might have been the one to go to U.S.A And maby Uncle Charlie just couldnt stand it at home and disapered. My granddad was brother he went to Canada. Any help sorting this mess will be appreciated Thank You al b
-
What was your grandad's name ?-we might find them together in an early census -then we will know if Charles is the correct one
Suz

Hi Suz. Granddads name was Arthur not trying to put them together as much as trying to find out if your Charles lived long enough to go to US about 1895. Thanks again al b
-
Just thought if your grandad was with him on an early census it would prove it is the correct Charles we are chasing! if it's your granddad's brother then you should know his parents???
