I am looking any information on my Great grandfather's brother Benjamin Stephen Elliott who I know marrried a Florence Pittman (father William Pittman a local Blacksmith) in Bracebridge in 1912. Benjamin immigrated to Canada from England in 1885 when he was about 1, but not with his natural parents.
Thank you
