Thank you for all your help.
I do have details of the sea crossing - WJ Wedlock left Liverpool, England on 11th July 1913 on the Empress of Ireland age 19 years occupation - coach builder. The ship was heading for Quebec.

What happened to him between then and his being in British Columbia in 1915 who knows! The address given on my grandfathers military records was c/o post office BC.

Lynne - the date is "wonky" again.  He was born in 1888, if that was him he would be 27 years old  ???

Coachbuilder was mentioned on the bottom of the previous page - he was older and could have been from Cornwall.

Think we might have good new on the Canada thread Lisa - the chance of Attestation papers for William Wedlock 1888. Since the UK BMD shows Sept Quarter Registration  -  the 21 June is a real possiobility of the correct person.  ;)

I have been in touch with the Vancouver library who have been very helpful but so far have found no trace of him. I have looked again at the US and have found a possibility - William Wedlock  married to Maude living in Chicago in 1920, but am unsure how to go about finding if he is the correct person.

Thank you, I will not search any further on that front. Back to the search - he has to be out there somewhere!
