Welcome to the boards, Doreen.

When you say that you are looking for him, have you found him in any censuses?

Do you know his father's name from the marriage certificate, or his parents' names from his birth certificate?

Are you looking for information before or after the marriage?

Thank-you

How can Annie Salter have been born in Ontario in 1894 to Robert Salter and Ann(ie) Kendall if they did not arrive in Canada until 1900???????????



Is there another couple with the same names???????????????????

I think this is their marriage:
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FH4B-H4H

which makes the 1861 posted by Sylvia look like a very good possibility.

I wonder if Robert and Annie sort of drifted between Canada and the US eventually settling in NS in 1900 and so put that down as their year of immigration?

I do note that Annie MARIE was the name of the daughter born in Ontario, and not the name of the woman that Robert Salter married


I think there is a bit of confusion there in the OP
