Title: Frank Collins - Border Crossing USA to Canada 1910-1915 *Completed*
Post by: -Starshine- on Monday 06 September 10 21:47 BST (UK)

I'd be very grateful if someone could possibly lookup the following:

Frank Collins aka Edward Collins
b.Oct 1886, Galway, Ireland
Crossed into Canada from US between 1910 and 1915.

Any additional info you could provide (e.g. dates, addresses, occupation, who he was travelling with) would be greatly appreciated  :)

Frank later joined the Canadian Expeditionary Force in 1915 (have details about his CEF service).

Thanks

you can view immigration records and border crossings for free this week-end at ancestry.
i had a quick look but most of the crossings have Frank born in the US. You may want to have a look before the free period ends.

Thanks Valeriec, I think I may have now found the entry record on ancestry. It's not definite, but there's a good possibility it's him.  :)
