Fred married Phyllis Mary O Driscoll who was b c. 1892 Mobile, Newfoundland, 31 Dec 1912 at York, Ontario. They had 2 daughters Mary Winn Slipper 16 Sep 1914 Chicago and Betty bc1924 Ontario, as mother and 2 daughters shown travelling from Newfoundland to Quebec 19 Oct 1932.
Fred wasn't with them. Wonder if there were any more children between 1914 and 1924?

Hi

Obituary for Phyllis Mary (O'Driscoll) Slipper in the Globe and Mail newspaper.  She died at St. Michael's hospital on April 4, 1969.  Wife of the late Fred Winn Slipper.  Mother of Mary Winn (Mrs Robert Jamieson) and B. (Mrs R F Petry) of Bracebridge.  Interment Holy Cross Cemetery.

Globe and Mail, 6 April 1969, page 49. 

Not sure if we should name the second daughter... born in 1924.   No other children mentioned in the obituary.  Looks like there were only 2.
