With six others of his family, Yves was one of the people mentioned on the manifest of the SS Vancouver, as arriving on April 2, 1905, in Halifax, NS, from Liverpool, England. They were seven among 63 members of the following Breton families, nearly all from Guern or nearby villages, some of whom may well have been headed for Red Deer in British territories destined to become what is now Alberta, but a missionary aboard convinced them all(?) to head for St-Claude, instead:
Cloaree, Corbeil, Couronne, Dacquay, Dondo, David, Gloux, Guigneno, Jute, Kervegant, Le Bris, Le Brun, Le Carre, Le Devehet / Le Devehat, Le Franc, Le Francheur, Le Gourrince, Le Mial, Le Pape, Maurre, Puybasset, Philippe, Phillipot, Rebiffe, Zegouzo
A short biography is available in the Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes centennial book:
