Find Ancestors

I am seeking the descendants of Llewellyn Davis who was born in Surrey, England, in 1882, father John Morgan Davis and mother Letitia Hidgen Chinnock. He is known to have emigrated to Canada as his father's will in 1916 says so. It mentions Llewellyn's son, Trevor Norman Davis. The place in which Llewellyn is supposed to be living in Canada is Tucaski but I have been unable to locate this place. He was also a Justice of the Peace. Any assistance would be much appreciated

Possibly his arrival:

Canadian Passenger Lists, 1865-1935
Name: Llewellyn Davis
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1882
Date of Arrival: 7 Oct 1910
Vessel: Victorian
Port of Arrival: Quebec
Port of Departure: Liverpool, England
Roll: T-4772

EDIT: No, it wasn't his first trip because with him were his 2 children Trevor age 2 and Sylvia x months (hard to decipher writing) - The children are described as "native". He was also with Marie (wife?) age 32. Their onward destination looks like Laycock.

I'm not sure if this is him on his first arrival:

Canadian Passenger Lists, 1865-1935
Name: Llewellyn Davies
Gender: Male
Age: 24
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1882
Date of Arrival: 7 Sep 1906
Vessel: Carthaginian
Port of Arrival: Montreal, Quebec

He was single and his occupation milkman, but intended to be a farmer in Canada. He'd been living in Carmarthen and was headed to Winnipeg.

Hmm, this is DaviEs but we all know how these names get interchanged on records - it's the Carmarthen I'm not sure about .....

Llewellyn isn't with his family on this census, but if his father died in 1916 might he have gone home for funeral?

Many thanks to all who supplied information. Indeed it has been very helpful and I now know that Trevor returned to Canada in 1923. However, his father appears to have died between 1916 and 1919 as when the family returns to England in 1919, Marie Ethel calls herself a widow. I wonder what happened to Trevor Norman Davis after his return to Canada in 1923???
