Norman came to the United States at the age of 10
accompanied by his mother.
The pair traveled
approximately 140 miles from London, Ontario, Canada to cross the
border into the U.S.. at Niagara Falls, NY.
Their final destination in
nearby Buffalo, NY was just another 25 miles. It is indicated that they
would permanently reside in the U.S.
Oddly, Norman's race is
listed as "Scottish".
