My Grandfather Henry Howell Clark was born 23-2-1880 in Cardiff, South Wales.
Family stories say he went to Canada "to make his fortune" but that while there he was involved in an armed hold-up (as victim or perpetrator not known).
He was unmarried in Cardiff in the 1891, 1901 and 1911 censuses.
Using FindMyPast and Ancestry at my local library I have found a record of him at the Tenby, Wales Lodge of the United Grand Lodge of England with the note 'Raising GL Ontario'.
It seems possible that he may have gone from UK to Canada and back again between April 1911 and March 1912, but I have been unable to track down either voyage or any account (newspaper, court or otherwise) of his time in Canada (this could well be because of my lack of experience with these facilities or the records they contain).
Any clues or suggestions of how I should be proceed would be welcome.
Thanks in anticipation, pejic.
