Can anyone help me please?
William(b1904) & David(b1908) were my great uncles and lived in the Sheltering Home on Myrtle St Liverpool in the mid 1900's.
Family tell me that both boys were sent to Canada. I've found David going to Nova Scotia in March 1925, and then going to a farm in Osgoode, Ontario.
However I can't find William. I've tried various passenger lists for various years, and even war records, but no sign of my William.
Any hints or info anyone......many thanks :)
