Looking for information on my great-great grandfather, William Henry Norris, born about 1827 in England.

Question

I know he came to New Brunswick and married one Mary Barden.  No dates available.  They had three children:  Steven in 1855. George in 1857 and my great grandfather Albert on 23 Feb. 1859 in Havelock, Kings County, NB, Canada.  He died 9  Sep 1921 in Barnesville, NB by questionable means.  The rest of my family history I can pick up from there.  My question is:  Where and where was William Henry Norris born and who were his parents?

Comments

I also have William Henry in my tree as my 3rd great grandfather. Iam also stuck at the same place. The questionable means you speak of leaves me curious now.
