In case you don't have this, here are the Close family in the 1851 Canadian Census:

http://data2.collectionscanada.ca/1851_pdf/e095/e002372244.pdf (Next page showing details of their house etc. - match the line numbers from the first page)

And the Longmans - looks like they first settled in Woolwich Township, Waterloo County:

Looks like Fanny, Robert and lots of the family are buried in Goldstone United Cemetery.

The cemetery is at Lot 13, Concession 10, right by where Robert died.
