Calvin Hall
« on: Saturday 16 May 09 14:17 BST (UK) »
Hi, my great great uncle Calvin Joseph Hall was born in 1876.  I know he emigrated to Canada from Leeds, Yorkshire, England on the Tunisian in 1904.  He was going to be a farm labourer.  His ultimate place of destination was going to be Winnipeg.  This is all I can find about him  the trail has literally stopped.  I cannot find out if he married or even when he died.  He did not come back to England either.  Is there anybody who could either help or suggest where I could look further.  I have looked through the 1911 Canadian census but no joy.

Many thanks for any kind of help.

Was he born in Leeds and would you know his father's name, please?  I can check and see if he crossed the border from Canada to America.

(I am having computer problems; I may not be able to respond later.)

After a brief search, I did not see Attestation Papers for him:

(Choose "Archives" and "Ancestors Search")

Vital Statistics for Manitoba, but Canada does not have "recent" information available:
http://vitalstats.gov.mb.ca/Query.php
(I believe British Columbia might be the only province to have some recent records.)
