Have you looked at the 1901 and 1911 Canadian census? there is a Jacob Weidrick in the same subdistrict, Townsend.
http://automatedgenealogy.com/census/index.html
Ontario, Norfolk North, Townsend e-4, page 5, line 10 and if you click on 'links' on the right it will take you to him in the 1911 census. Wife's name Sarah

from the lds website
Emerson Martin Wiedrick born 06 Sep, 1880, Nober, Norfolk, Ontario
Father: Jacob Wiedrick
Mother: Rachel Walker
Emerson M Wiedrick b 1880 is part of the Wiedrick family in 1881 and even though the wives names differ Emerson M Weidrick matches with the Weidrick family in the 1901 census
Here are 3 links for the various spellings of Weidrick that I could find
Weiderick
http://automatedgenealogy.com/census/SurnameList.jsp?surname=Weiderick
Weidrick
http://automatedgenealogy.com/census/SurnameList.jsp?surname=Weidrick
Wiedrick
http://automatedgenealogy.com/census/SurnameList.jsp?surname=Wiedrick
There are a couple of men here that are old enough to be Jacobs father. Someone else may know a way to determine his father

Thx for the welcome, J.J. I dabbled in genealogy a bit a few years ago and found it really easy to find my Coopers in Thanet, England, took a break when things got tough and just recently started again a few months ago. I am still a partial newbie, and still learning, just don't like to quit until I've tried every possible avenue I'm aware of
Things are also a little easier now, with the freeBMD, online census's and the generous 'lookup' assistance. Just wish I could find some of my Canadian family as easy as I found this, can only go back to 1911 on one and that's it, a big brick wall.

Sorry to hijack your thread for a moment...xSJx
Denise, there are many aspects to this forum, and brick walls are broken down
every day. so stick it out and try many threads. Have you put your Canadian
enquiries on this thread? These people are very good, and maybe can help. If
the info is out there, and you get the right people on your case, it can really be
a great help. Here's a hint...if your message just sits there, it goes to the back
burner....so make sure you put in the full names and dates of the person you
are looking for, and also answer each message right away...
That way, it goes to the top of the thread for more to see...and people don't
wonder why they aren't thanked for their help...( sometimes the notification
doesn't work, so check back, anyway, sometimes)
All the best and good luck, J.J

and lo and behold....I also found this...but it is submitted by researcher, so accuracy has to be proven...
"Martin Wiedrick" date of marriage, name of parents....etc...in Germany
http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/frameset_search.asp
also says name of spouse, although age doesn't match....nor place in Ont.
So go have a look for your self...and keep for your files just in case...

thankyou
unfortunately the rootsweb entry has a LOT of strange entries that contradict itself let alone my tree! - but some are indeed linked....it's hard to trust it though...hard job but will have to try and find evidence for each person before entering them!

At the LDS family history site I gave you there are several submissions, in the
Ancestral and the Pedigree Resource File...so if you contact the people (there
are 3 )who made those submissions, you can ask if they have any documentation,
if it matches with your family tree.
It appears that Jacob is a widow and either his sister or a sister-in -law
has come to help raise children. Being that Martin is on the 1871, and there is
a Martin listed on the LDS site by someone in Toronto Ontario, I think it imight
be worth looking into?
Hmmm...Just looked at the rootsweb entry once more and see that they say Rachel was wife? Odd that 1881 would have put him as "W" .
Any of these yours, then"

There are 3 other files that you could try sifting through for the same person.
http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=davidreynolds2&id=I3223
http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=ancestry214&id=I100
http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=polarzxc&id=I3223
Unfortunately, as I have found from my own research, misinformation can be passed on from person to person, I just pick the meat and throw out the bones. I take what I can find, question mark everything until I've cross referenced with census and or other records.
I have one ancestor where every piece of shared information had the year of birth as 1801, even though there appeared to be a birth record showing 1810 as the year of birth. I just today started to work through the children of this woman's brother using the 1880 US and 1881 Canadian census and found her living with one of the children at age 70, year of birth 1811
Happy Hunting

I think I read something about entering the wife if she died in the census year, according to the rootsweb info Rachel died in 1881. I'll see if I can find it again
