Thank you for the thought, I will check, I didn't think to look
as in his
obit it said he landed in New York and worked for 3 years to learn his
trade as a mason. But as you say he could havea come through Canada into
New York. I know obits aren't aways right, just as they had his birth as
June 20, 1830 different then July 9, 1828 found in Wales records. Thank
you again. Jean
