Hello everyone, your wonderful research has turned up 2 daughters of whom I was unaware, Annie and Ethel but still no sign of Maggie?.
Is it possible to be able to see the obit notices that you mention?
Annie Shepherdson married Levis Peter Linton and at 1921 they had 5 children whom I've not researched yet but Levis Linton passed over in 1959 and is buried in Claremont Union cemetery with Annie according to find a grave.
Annie's dob was given to me by a family member but as you pointed out it's wrong and should be 1887, however some records show it as 1885-even her demise and gravestone?

Unnamed https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:9Q97-Y3S4-979?mode=g&cc=1784212
Died 1905, listed stillborn

My notes are so scattered now, that I'm sure I missed things, but if you read the above articles, and search the names through http://news.ourontario.ca/ especially the Stouffville newspapers, you can track the grandchildren of William and Mary Jane.

As for Margaret, she is the hardest one, and I never saw any sign of children. The lack of a birth registration is puzzling seeings as all the others were done. Marshall was born in May, 1888. The 1911 census states Margaret was born in March 1889. That's only ten months... possible, but perhaps she was actually an "oops" of Emma, so never registered?

I had no luck with a marriage for Margaret either, in Ontario or Quebec.

Excellent work bbart...  :).  Perhaps Margaret and Albert lived in Mt Dennis... that is an area in the western part of Toronto.

You are absolutely right..... her father's death announcement says Mt. Dennis.    I can't believe how much time I wasted searching Quebec directories.  I guess I shouldn't put off getting eyeglasses much longer.... ::)

Thank you once again all for your stunning research which gives a lot more clues about their descendants.
btw I had a nice reply from Prospect cemetery regarding the death of Robert Marshall Simmons, they said his date of death was March 21.1920 he was 5 months old and is buried in the infant graves in section 16 grave 1751. There is no marker on this grave only a number.
No reply about his parents demise or burial there.
bbart I'm unable to see Mary Hood's obit, nor Albert Jones nor the birth of the unknown in 1905-the link to the latter takes me to Simmons marriage.
Do we know when John and Minnie Simmons passed over?
