Looking for Guild's in British Columbia

Looking for connections from Scotland to Canada of my grandfather, Herbert Allan Ward Guild.

Born to Alexander Guild and Joanna/Johana Yeaman Webster Guild 6 March 1888 in Forfar, Scotland; died Vancouver, BC 30 Jan 1948.

Herbert, or Bert, came to Canada via Glasgow-Halifax 30 Mar 1907. Might have traveled with brothers Alexander and Norman to Moosejaw.

Herbert married Lydia Lindberg 20 Dec 1915 in Kamploops; three daughters born in Kamloops, Jean, twins Vera and Viola and my father, Douglas, born in Merritt 31 Dec 1920. Family moved to Vancouver sometime in 1920's. Butcher by trade, also musician/teacher of violin.

I've connected the family to Canada in 1907, back to Forfar circa 1800, and from my dad's move to the State's in 1946, but have very little information between 1907 and 1946.

Familiar to anyone?

Thanks,

Bob Guild
