Hi, I seem to have hit a brick wall regards my 2x great grandfather. His name is Robert Hewitt born about 1856 in Torksey, Lincolnshire. I have been able to follow his life through all the census' to 1911 and found that he moved to Canada with his wife Alice and 2 of his youngest children. These being Harold and Norah. I have seen the transcripts of both the 1916 and 1920 Canadian census that show them in Winnipeg.
After 1920 I have lost track of Robert, Alice, and Norah but I traced Harold marrying a Laura L. Jones in St. John, New Brunswick on 25 July 1929.
I am also of the belief that Norah was possibly adopted as she is listed as Norah Ethel Forman as a visitor in the 1911 census.
If anyone can help in what happened regards any of these family members or where they moved to, I would be most grateful.
