I realize that - I'm just trying to add details to the thread and observations which might help you to think about the problem in a different light.

Have you found the family in the 1921 census yet?

In the previous thread you mentioned one of the sons using his stepmother Ada as his next of kin on his WWI Attestation papers.  Why not his father?  Had his father died by that time?  Something to consider.

Sometimes you never do find documents for individuals.

Could your dob's be out a bit?  There is a possible death for Mary Jane in York County in 1898, but estimated dob is 1866  :-\

The image of the registration for that death indicates Mary was single and Catholic. As well she died in Muskoka County, not York County.

Ada might have married Donald Carpentier in 1926 but she is living with him in Sutton West on the 1921 census as his wife.  Her sons, Nicholas and William Hutchinson are also in the household with them.
