Canadian Marriage/Death or Census look-up
« on: Wednesday 15 October 08 19:10 BST (UK) »
I'm trying to find Robert Nathaniel Wright who was born in November 1880 in London.  He arrived in Nova Scotia in 1903 when he deserted the RN ship he was serving on.  Family rumour says it was because of the gold rush. 

If anyone is able to do a look-up on either marriage, death or census I would be grateful.  I have posted before but not had any luck and have no idea what State he would have settled in.  Its possible he may even have travelled to the US and settled there.
Wright (West Ham, Stratford, Cripplegate)
Widenstrom (Chicago and Minnesota)
Swain (Cripplegate, St Lukes)
Wolfe (St Giles in the Fields)
Willis (Gt. Leighs; Brentford)
Bryant (Bristol, Glos)
Searle (Kent/Surrey)
Keyworth (Yorkshire)
Biggs (Harrow Weald)
Collins (Harrow Weald and Wiltshire)
Langston (Harrow Weald)

I did a search at Ancestry but couldn't find anything that fit your Robert in Canada or the US. Sorry.

BTW, Canada doesn't have states. We have 10 provinces and 3 territories.
Canada: Patterson, Brown, Haidenger/Heidinger, Meyer, Johnston(e), Gorsuch, Kitchin/Kitchen
United States: Patterson, Smith, Brown, Vance, Bower(s), Newberry, Best, Love, Gorsuch
England (Northumberland): Brown, Whitfield, Henderson
Scotland (Glasgow, Edinburgh, Fife, East Lothian): Johnston(e), Bell, Galloway, Campbell, Robertson, Williamson, Thomson, Crawford
Germans from Russia: Haidenger/Heidinger, Meyer, Meach, Lorenz
