Jay got counted twice in 1901, as here he is in Sweetsburg, also
a Dentsit, by the way...in the home of Louis Morin ( as Massey)

( says "student " Dentist on the other entry...)

[J.J.]

You may just want to look for James in the U.S. as the info found earlier and the fact that I can't locate him or family on the 1901....tried many variations of the surname...
