1921 census in Manitoba... John and children are there, but John is a widower.  Ellen must have died between 1916 and 1921.

The Manitoba Vital Statistics database isn't working for me right now :'(.  Perhaps you can check it a bit later.

Deaths more than 70 years ago are included in this database
