Great! Thanks Debbie, that's really helpful. 

I had seen the marriage, thanks  - so I was surprised to see them together in 1916.  Not that anything ought to surprise me by now about when people get married  ;D .

Family legend says he went off to run a muskrat farm - not quite the same thing as being a fireman.

Do you have his emmigration information? There's a Frank Beeton, 22 who was going to Winnipeg to join his brother (not named) on the Megantic which arrived in Quebec on 22 May 1910 (he's 10 from the bottom):

Many thanks for that, Jacquie - that was something I hadn't found.  He was going to join his brother Harry, who went out in 1906 (I did find that ship's record).

Harry returned to England later in 1910, but was back for the 1911 Canadian census.  He doesn't seem to be in the 1916 census - although he  enlisted in the Canadian Overseas Expeditionary force in September of 1916.
