Hi there

What information is it that you are seeking about this family?  If you are looking for e.g. census information it will help a lot if you can provide a birthdate (exact or approximate) for Bernard - and, if possible, for daughter Gale.  An occupation for Bernard might also help to find him.  What is the source of the 1924 arrival date you cite - do you have his immigration details?

As always, the more information you can provide, the better

Anna
