Hicks from Cornwall England to Canada

John B Hicks x Nancy Jane Peer. Johns parents may have been Andrew and Elizabeth Hicks (Hics)(Hix)from Cornwall.
Once in Canada, they had several children located in Ontario. Many stayed in Ontario, but my line from John Andrew Hicks came west to Alberta. Looking for date/ship John B Hicks arrived in Canada. This is pre- Confederation so few records exist. Johns family may have come to Canada, then travelled on to Ohio, USA. John was the only one to stay in Canada at age 14.
