Henry Naylor/Nayler/Nailor b Yorkshire ca. 1819-1820 (?)

Don't know where this leads me, but here is the birth of Henry's daughter Julia Margaret. Wonder if anyone can make out the birthplace in Canada of her mother.

lol Not really! I tried looking at lists of places in Canada, through all those beginning with S and looking at those ending in Y, but nothing matched well. Did they have any other children with a similar record?

The spelling of Canada is dubious, so that's depressing.

The records that I can find for other children just say "Canada".

Unhelpful!

Pity they didn't ask where in England whilst they were asking where in Canada.

You can probably forget my idea of widow Naylor marring John Clair and sailing off into the sunset with all their children, as this looks like John and Elizabeth with a son from their marriage in 1841 (bottom left):

So, if it was this Elizabeth's son who went to Canada aged 5, he went without his mother, which seems way too unlikely, so, though I can't find Elizabeth's son, Henry Naylor, in England, I expect that's where he remained.

Could it be Lacady, an attempt at L'Acadie, as there is a municipality called L'Acadie within St Jean sur Richelieu? Just looking at that area because there is a likely Emilie Boudreau from there.

[Merry]

I'd say that's promising!

Kite, you are brilliant as usual. I think that must be it.

Going back to working through the baptisms, the list I had made myself was this. The only one I was certain of eliminating was the one baptized in Thornhill. Still plugging away.

Kirk Bramwith
Henry Nayler, b 14 Jan 1818, bap 23 May 1817, Robert Nayler and Elizabeth

Halifax
Henry Naylor, b 15 Nov 1818, bap 15 Nov 1818, Mary Naylor

Thornhill
Henry Naylor (or Thomas Henry--Thornhill St Michael and All Angels), bap 10 Jan 1819, Robert Naylor (Joiner) and Mary
It's not him - he is in England in 1851, in Mirfield.

Halifax
Henry Carrack Naylor, bap 11 April 1819

Halifax
Thos. Henry Naylor, bap. 11 April 1819, Barthw. Naylor and Sarah

Rawmarsh
Henry Naylor, bap. 13 Aug 1820, James Naylor and Elizabeth

I was getting tied in knots because it seemed as if there were, on the censuses, more Henry Na?l?rs of the right age born Yks than I had found in the baptisms. Anyway here's me talking to myself.

On the 1841:

Sheffield
William Naylor 45 Tailor
Hannah Naylor 45
George Naylor 20 Tailor
Henry Naylor 20 Tailor
Sarah Naylor 14
Eliza Naylor 11
Martha Naylor 6
All born Yorkshire

Almondbury
Henry Naylor 20 Butcher * ??? Is that 20 or 40 for his age?
Harriot Naylor 30
Hannah Turner 19
Sarah Hebblethwait 16
Alll born Yorkshire

Mirfield
Robt Naylor 50 Joiner
Mary Naylor 55
Herry Naylor 20
Caroline Naylor 15
Thomas Naylor 15
Robert Naylor 10
All born Yorkshire

The 20-year-old in Mirfield I believe is the same Henry Naylor b Thornhill who also appears on the 1851. He married Ellen France in 1844. Did not go to Canada.
