Hi, in reference to: Robert Burnett/who is Scotish and his wife Mary Jane Cairns(aka:Kearns)who is Irish. Immigrated from England to Quebec Canada in different years, met in Quebec and married in Quebec. I have found the marriage information april. 1893. in Cowansville Quebec. and burial information in Lennoxville Quebec. and have found the information on their 4 children,
Lawrence Robert,Elsie,Mildred Emily,Hazel Louise.
What I am trying to find is information as to who Robert Burnett came from England to Quebec Canada with.? It seems he did not come with parents (?) maybe he was from 'the childrens home ' in Scotland (?) but regardless he would have had to travel with others I would think.
When I look at the 1901 Canadian Census the last name reads as:
Bermett which is likely simply an error in translation of the document, but the birth date and immigration date are slightly different on the 1901 census vs. the 1911 census. So I am not sure when the immigration year would be:
1901 reads: birth date: August 3 1871. and immigration date: 1884.
the 1911 census reads:
birth date: August 3 1878 and immigration year:1888.
His burial dates read: birth 1870.
Back to my original quest of trying to find out who he came to quebec canada with? Is there a way to find this information? Thank You. Enjoy the week end.
