Charles Collingwood was baptised at North Willingham on 10.2.1828.
I have traced a Charles Collingwood in Canada in the 1881 census, b. 1828 in England. He was married to Frances, whom I believe to be Frances Riseborough bap. on 24.8.1835. On her death certificate her parents are given as Robert and Mary Riseborough, (Nee Coe). These are correct for the baptisms on 24.8.1835.
On Family Search, Frs is show in Canada aged 16 years.
I cannot find the death certificate for Charles Collingwood on line on Family Search, although Find a Grave records show him dying in 1895.
Can anyone find a marriage record for Charles and Frances.
Can anyone find a death certificate for Charles.
Can anyone find passenger records for either of them.
I am trying to see if Charles Collingwood bap. in 1828 is the same person in Canada.
Thanking in advance

A tree on Ancestry has this for their marriage - but no source
Aug. 6, 1857, Markham, York Co.,Canada West, Ontario, Canada
Others have his death as 20 December 1895 - Whitchurch-Stouffville, Ontario, Canada
This looks like the Canadian based chap in 1861

And this Frances in 1851

I would think Charles came over before 1851, as I can;t find him on a UK census

Many thanks, will continue to prove try and prove the two Charles are the same person.

I have had a little look this evening, nice to have a little break from my own tree. I did find a death for a Charles Collingwood;
COLLINGWOOD, CHARLES 14
GRO Reference: 1843 S Quarter in CAISTOR UNION Volume 14 Page 179
The age fits with birth being in 1828/9.
Do you know that he did definitely go to Canada?
I couldn't find anything on a passenger list, although Charles in Canada must be on one somewhere.

FreeReg has this burial as 08 Sep 1843 at All Saints, Sixhills, Lincs, aged 14 months. Also confirmed on the Parish Register: http://www.rootschat.com/links/01j4j/

Not one of the things you're searching for but I note that Charles's parents were Joseph & Jane, and there is a marriage on 18 Dec 1810 in Caistor between Joseph Collingwood & Jane Robinson.
One of Charles & Frances children was named William Robinson Collingwood: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:JKWW-XQP

Ah good spot Jomot. I must remember to be wary of any ages of death below 24 on the gro. With the info Jomot has provided re children's names I would feel confident that the Charles in Canada is your man. Good luck with the rest of your search.

Many thanks everyone.
The parents of Charles who died in 1843 are John Collingwood and Sarah Hooker, a connected family, but a different Charles to the one I am researching.
Joseph Collingwood and Jane Robinson are the parents of my grandfather.
