A relation in the family says he may be Canadian but we don't actually know if that is true, perhaps safc is right.

Thanks everyone for your help.

We know that Aimee, one of the daughters was born in Canada and that their parents were actually married but can't find a record of the marriage, none of the family know the husbands christian name.

Kira - I've just seen that, I guess Wuebee on the 1911 could be a strange pronunciation of Quebec?

I'm not seeing any incoming passenger record or anything on Canadian records ......

No husband on the 1891, either.

I'd be inclined to get one of the children's birth certificates to check if there is actually a father mentioned:

So was Davey her married name? Did she have children? If so who, where and when?

What census have you got her on?

Or, if Davey was her maiden name - are you trying to find out if she married?

If we can see the "bigger picture" then we can help......
