Susan was born abt 1846 Ontario and died 1910 Chatham. She married abt 1867 to John Andrew Hedrick (abt1843-1874). She then married in 1875 to Amos Moon (abt 1853-?). In 1891 she is living with Hiram Lefler (abt1846-1907) in Chatham.
I can not find a marriage to Hedrick, a death for Moon nor a marriage to Lefler. Neither can I find birth registrations for the young girls in 1891 census. One of them appears to be Effie who marries Arthur Lampman in 1918 but can not read other names. I have been looking on familysearch.

Hiram Lefter 51 Susan Ann Lefter 44

Orrity Lefter 4 Could that be Verity. ??? Female.
Efe Lefter 2 This would be Effie - Female.
Laura Lefter 1 Gerty Hedrick 20 Could be Gertrude.

I think the Mary Hedrick is really Mary Moon born 1883 and later marries Freeman Pickering in 1901

Just picked up Mary Sophia Moon to Freeman Pickering - 1 January 1901 - Amos Moon and Sarah Grandbois
Think this is the birth for Mary Moon 14 July 1883 - Amos Moon and Susan Granboy - Essex Ontario.

John Andrew Hedrick - 29 January 1874 - Rochester Essex. 31 March 1874 Essex Ontario.
Someone on anc has a death cert for John Andrew Hedrick Snr - passed away 7 January 1874 - Cause of death consumption.
Florence Jane Hedrick - 29 June 1871 - Essex Ontario. Father John Hedrick and Mother Anne Grandbois - perhaps this is the one known as Gertie on that 1891 Census ???

Have to wonder if Amos did not die but abandoned the family and that is why there does not appear to be a marriage record for Hiram and Susan. Still leaves question of where and when he died
-
Did wonder if that could be a scenario but can't see anything for him unforuately.

Effie Lampman (nee Lefler) daughter of Susan Ann Grandbois adopted a child in 1913 called Myril Catherine Kleist, and gave her to her sister Mary Pickering when Effie divorced her husband Charles Perry. Mary placed her in a children's home in Chatham. Can anyone help me with more information about this child?
