Robert Collin
« on: Saturday 01 April 06 15:43 BST (UK) »
Hello, I am trying to track down my grandads brother, Robert Collin b. Oldham 1865 he was in Peterborough England upto 1906 when he buried his wife. They had a daughter Annie Margaret in 1899. I cant find them after 1906 and suspect they emigrated. Whilst looking at Ancestry .com I noticed several Robert & Annies in the 1911 Canada census, and wonder how I can check them out I dont want to subscribe just for this. Thankyou, Best wishes Glyn

I'm not having any luck pairing up a Robert and Annie Collins together, born in England.

You can view the 1911 census here for free, it's not completly transcribed, but they are working on it, I think they are about 1/2 way, but the key word is "free".  :)
