Actual names vs. anglicized names

[davidr8]

Hello all, my father's parents are listed in a Canadian directory as Slim and Toby/Tuby Quon.

These are obviously not their Chinese names.

I have no way of tracking their into Canada because I don't have their names. I only have the year they arrived.

Has anyone had success in figuring out a person's actual name?

david8,

I suggest checking the database Chinese Immigrants to Canada 1885 - 1949 by the year & possible names:
