Charlie- I tried looking on the census of Canada 1881 as well as 1901 and no mention of him. No listing either on find a Grave though there are lots of Prestons on both of these sites.

There are several references to a Monte Preston as well as a Monte R. Preston in British Columbia Canada voters' lists and death index. Do you have any other information on him..approx birth, death etc?

Charlie: the only thing not showing is the Vital year, which is 1901 and the source: "Henderson's British Columbia Gazetteer and Directory and Mining Companies for 1900-1901" I have searched 1901-1911 censuses but he's not there. There are is at least one other Monte Preston in BC in the 1960 -70's British Columbia, Canada, Death Index, 1872-1990 Death, Burial, Cemetery & Obituaries Record information.
