I'm am trying to document Joe Meek related recordings on 78. I know 
that there are a whole whack available in the UK. That'll be fairly 
easy to acquire and document. Its when I get to releases outside the 
UK, particularly the USA and Canada, that I need some help.

Anne Shelton - Lay Down Your Arms - Philips PB 616 in the UK
USA: Columbia 40759 -- this was no doubt a 78
Canada: same as USA?

Chris Barber's Jazz Band - Petite Fleuer - Pye Jazz NJ 2026 in the UK
USA: Laurie 3022 -- no 78
Canada: Quality 1833 - this was a 78

Lonnie Donegan & his Skiffle Group - Puttin' on the Style - Pye Nixa 
N 15093 in the UK
USA: Mercury 71181 - did this make it as a 78?
Canada: London ?

Johnny Duncan & his Blue Grass Boys - Last Train to San Fernanado 
Columbia DB 3959 in the UK
USA: Capitol F3814 -  too late for a US release on 78? I'm guessing it is
Canada: Capitol F3814 - probably a 78 there

Mike Preston - A House A Car and A Wedding Ring - Decca F 11053 in the UK
USA: London 1834 --  too late for a 78?
Canada: London ?

Can anyone help me determine if there were USA or Canadian 78s of these
