I couldn't find them in Toronto, but I believe this is them in the 1881 census for Chicago, Cook, Illinois, U.S.A. on page 415C

John, 47 Eng
Sarah, 47 Eng
John, 24, Eng
Charles, 22 Eng
George, 14 Canada
Thomas, 18 Canada
Ada, 21 Eng
Caroline, 8 Illinois
Lillie, 5 Illinois

Looks like they were in Canada for George and Thomas's birth!  :)

Correction - I meant the 1880 Census, not 1881. 

But if you go to the LDS website, you can check for further details, as occupation and stuff.
