Immigrants & Emigrants - General / Emigrated to US or Canada

I have a ancestor that may have emigrated to the US or Canada between 1841 and 1849 but I can't find him on any lists. His name is William Beckwith born 1814 Halstead Essex England, last seen on the 1841 uk census. Someone who appears to be him appears on the 1851, 1861 and1871 Canada census and the 1880 United States census and 1892 New York State census, with his wife Miriam. I would like to connect the 2 Williams but census's don't show birth place in uk, if I could find him on a passenger list between 1841 and 1849, when I think he married, that should confirm. Thanks.
