Robert Nisbet in Canada/America
« on: Thursday 27 March 14 16:39 GMT (UK) »
Information please on Robert Nisbet who I think immigrated to Canada around 1907, and was staying with his sister Janet Forsyth in Hamilton Ontario, He then immigrated to Detroit Michigan in Dec. 1918 with his daughter Eliza J age 19 months to live with his Mother-in-Law Elizabeth Allan
