Ancestry - American / Canadian records

[Jen Red Purple]

Hello

Please could someone with access to US info look up 2 records for me?

Alfred Lawrence Bramwell b 1889 England - Border crossing, arrival Nova Scotia.

and

Alfred L Bramwell b abt 1890 England - 1920 census, Multnomah, Oregon.

I am hoping the census has details of his mysterious first wife (poss Alice Bland) and any secret children he had whilst in the states!

Thank you
