Hi Listers
I am looking for directions as to where to look next! My ggrandfather
JOHN JONES, born 1839/42 in Barnstaple, Devon, left England for Canada
sometime between 1864 (when my grandfather was born) and the 1871
census.
At the moment I am ploughing through the films of vessels leaving Europe
for Quebec and have found a possible candidate (there were not as many
John Jones as I would have thought!). He was on the SS HIBERIAN leaving
Liverpool on 27th June 1867 aged 23 and a labourer.
Is there a list that gives the place of birth of immigrants to Canada?
I also found a stray in Ottawa in 1870. How can I find further info?
All suggestions would be appreciated.
