Dear Archives Team,
I am researching my grandfather, Amarjit Singh Grewal, and I am hoping to confirm details of his immigration to Canada.
Family information suggests he travelled from the United Kingdom to Canada around 1967, possibly for work. I am trying to establish his exact arrival date, port of entry, and any records that may exist relating to his landing or residency.
Here are the details I have:
Name: Amarjit Singh Grewal
Born: c.1930–1937 Potential (India)
Lived in the UK: 1958–1967 (Charlton and Crayford, London)
Likely immigration year: 1966–1968
Possible destination: Ontario or British Columbia (not confirmed)
If you hold any passenger lists, landing records, immigration files, or work permit documents for this period, I would be very grateful for any assistance or guidance on how to locate them.
Thank you very much for your time and help.
Kind regards,
Leo
:)
