James Miller married Jenny Sykes Ontario

[punch]

I really need help with this request because I have very little information to go on. I do not know when or where James Miller or his wife, Jenny Sykes, were born or married or died. My calculations have them born in the 1880s or 1890s. Both are interred  in Saint Johns Norway Cemetery in Toronto.  James and Jenny had a daughter named Elsie who married Arthur Pollard (Arthur was born in Toronto in 1911). Arthur and Elsie married probably before 1932. Both Arthur and Elsie are interred in MacNeill Cemetery in Brock Township, Ontario. Thank you in advance.

Hi

Looks like two siblings ( Florence E and Marion Alexandra) may have married two brothers
