On the 1920 census John states born in Scotland which might be an indication that in 1940 John may have been in Cambridge, Middlesex, Massachusetts - Cambridge Home For Aged & Infirm.
There was a John who was born 1879 Scotland. Married. Inmate but no further info  ???

Wow!! Thank you so much, Sandra. You HAVE been working hard for me. It all sounds so positive until your last post. My James was married 05/03/1912 to Agnes Anderson McBride in West Derby, L'pool. She was a spinster aged 38. I cannot find her or James on 1911 English census. On 1901 English census Agnes is with her family in L'pool and it says she was born in L'pool. I cannot find James on 1911 census, which would tie in with him already being in Canada.
I do think I have the correct marriage certificate because of:- 1) James' age, 2) his address 3) Father's name and occupation 4) witness is his youngest brother 5) Agnes' witness is her cousin who was living with her family on 1901 census.
The address given on 1926 shipping record is the same as the Cooper family home.

I have now found James on 1911 Canadian census and 1935 voter lists as previously suggested. I have also found Agnes Anderson McBride at Brookside Cemetery, Winnipeg, died 2.29.1948 and a possibility for James there, died 2.20.1949. Does anybody know how to find if there's a headstone, please? Are death certificates available? Also, can I find if daughter, Jean Cooper, married? She was still single in 1935 when she'd be about 22 yrs. Thanks, Matahui
