Where was he in 1910?  Or 1900 for that matter?

There were literally dozens of ports, large and small, he 
could have entered.  Not to mention the Canada/US border 
crossings.

Most of those records have to be searched by hand from 
microfilm, but you might get lucky at the Olive Tree 
Genealogy site.
