Bear with me I have found the death notice for Benjamin - might have to send via your personal e-mail - unless you can get this link (page 47)  Looks like the couple had three children - 3 sons.

(Anglican). Bridget is transcribed as Conudtley.

William Henry Anthony Davies, b. Jan. 25, 1916 baptised St. Michel's.

1921 Canadian census, 2639 Waverly St., Montreal,
Davies, Reginald, age 33, b. England, clerk

Davies, William, age 5, b. Quebec
