How can I find information on my father, he immigrated to Canada from England in 1906 and shortly thereafter took up residence in the U.S.A. using a name not his own?

Is it possible to find out information regarding my father who immigrated to Canada in 1906 and shortly thereafter took up residence in the U.S.A using a name not his own until he returned to Canada in 1942?

Donald Williams,

Thanks for getting in touch. That's a tough one, because so many records are indexed to a particular name. Any idea what name he might have used?

I'm going to share this over in the Genealogists page. Let's see if anyone has experience with this kind of dilemma.

  He used the name Roy Hammond. A Vermont 1910 Census lists a Roy Hammond as a servant-age unknown and no birthplace.
