Hi Rayjamgor,

 :) Masonry certainly runs in the family.

A possible from Canada City and Directories,
Toronto City 1895
Little, Edward, stonecutter b. 121 Bay

Still looking for his original voyage somewhere between 1881 and 1901.

Cheers
DB

Hi Rayjamgor,

From the Welland Public library, there is a mention of Edward Little, Niagara Falls,
People's Press, page 3, 26/03/1907.

http://localhistory.welland.library.on.ca/newspaper/asp/   (Just enter his name.)

Try contacting the library they may be helpful.

Cheers,

Hi rayjamgor,

Try this link http://www.welland.library.on.ca/. Top left corner is contact us details. You have
the date and details for your inquiry in my previous post.
If that link doesn't work for you, just google Welland Library Canada.

The sailing that you found for Edward P. Little 1895. Do you know the name of the ship and
specific date of sailing?

Cheers,
DB

Hi Rayjamgor,

I don't see any other sailing for Edward (b.1846) that would fit as well as the one that you found.

I did find Edward (b.1880) sailing on the Mongolian in May 1905 arriving Montreal and Quebec.
His destination is Toronto, Ontario. Edward, wife Margaret, and daughter Margaret are on
page 8.

Added: The passenger list is also on family search, and I think it is a bit more legible.
