Looking for him before or after he left the Parisian?
Looks like he continued to the US: Border Crossings: From Canada to U.S., 1895-1956 William J Goalen (31) Date: Feb 13 1905 Port of Arrival: Niagara Falls, New York, USA. Nationality: English

Continuing to search in Familysearch.org turns up a William Thomas Goalen in of all places Alabama. I would have to wonder if this is the same William Goalen since the distance bestween Canada/New York and Alabama is quite large. Here is the link to the record.

Hee is a Google search result for William Thomas Goalen. You may be aware of the record since it is English. I did scroll all the way through the site to find the reference. What interested me was the reference to Kirkby which showed up in the post above on Mary J Goalen arrival into New York.
