On 07 March 1929, the electrician traveled from their home in Ottawa, ON, to Detroit, MI, wherehe hoped to find work while staying with brother-in-law Alfred ALBERT. Upon entering the US, he was noted to be 5'5" with a medium complexion, light brown hair, and brown eyes. He carried $50 in his pocket. At the timeJoseph Arthur hoped to make permanent residence in the US, but apparently the situation did not work out as he had planned. He must have not only returned to Canada but returned to Quebec as well. JosephArthur and Lillie had 4 children - 2 daughters and 2 sons - 3 of whom wereborn in the vicinity of Montreal during the years of 1932, 1936, and 1937. Lillie died in Montreal in May 1968.
