Do you have any approximate dates Chris?? Do you know what country they came from or on what ship?? "East Canada" is rather vague and where it was depends somewhat on the dates, but does suggest somewhere closer to the Quebec border (i.e. Upper Canada). Of the the two surnames, Job might be the easiest to research as there are a lot of Williams. Under the surname "Job" only 361 shown in Canada's Ancestral Search, but over 8,000 for surname Williams! Notice you live on Whitby Island! Lucky you.
