Any month? If it's after April, that eliminates the passenger I gave you earlier.

Hello,

You say that your grandfather went away for months at a time.
Were your grandfather's family in Canada or England?

Was 1910 the last time he was known to his family?

Hello again,
From your personal message it seems that you know very little re William.
Do you havehim in any censuses?
Can you give us any details of his marriage? It may help to pinpoint a year of birth and an occupation.

Regards
Heywood

it may be better to post on the Canadian board http://www.rootschat.com/forum/canada-lookup-request/  re Mr Parker and to see if there is any sight of your grandfather in Canada.
