The 1901 Canadian census

John is most likely dead at this point. The other children may have different last name spellings. Here are the ones I could track down.

Mary in Winnipeg
1901 Census of Canada Page Information
District: MB WINNIPEG (City/Cité) (#12)
Subdistrict: Ward/Quartier No. 2 B-7 Page 1

Go here: and down to number 10: select page 1.
They live at house #11
