England / New England Planters in Nova Scotia

Hello All,
I am researching my Avery Family lineage starting on Prince Edward island, Canada, to Nova Scotia, Canada to Maine, USA, Massachusettes, USA and Connecticut, USA.
I have so far landed on a John Avery; Merchant in Halifax, NS circa 1777-1784. Had sons named John Jr. Moses and Felix. Cannot find a wife/mother for this family, or where he went after 1784.
I have theories, but cannot prove anything. Missing the verifiable documents that prove my theories to move on.
Also, I am very curious about The Groton Avery Clan and the Dedham Avery Branch. Is this 'Branch' part of the Groton clan? why is one called a clan the other a branch? Are they related somehow, both having originated in England?
Thanks,
