Westlake/Dillon/Dilling Emigration to Canada??

[VCairns]

I am researching Westlake's from Northlew, Devon and one particular branch may have emigrated to Canada between 1840-1860.

Family 1

Anne Westlake daughter of Geroge Westlake and Sarah Cross was baptised 1807, Northlew

Anne married Andrew Dillon 1830, Northlew

They had the following Children who were all baptised in Northlew.

Eliza Dillon b. 1831
Elizabeth Dillon b. 1833
Anne Westlake Dillon b. 1835
Matilda Dillon b. 1837
Mary Dillon b. 1840
Louisa Dillon b. 1842
Bartholomew Dillon b. 1844

I believe this family emigrated to Ontario but changed their name to Dilling and Louisa was known as Laura. 

George Westlake b. 1801, Northlew (George was the older brother of Anne Dillon).
Married Mary Kerslake in Sourton, Devon

George and Mary had the following children

Elizabeth b. 1834, Sourton, Devon
Ann b. 1836, Sourton, Devon
Mary b. 1838, Sourton, Devon
William b. 1841, Northlew, Devon.

In the 1841 census both families where living next to each other at Eastcott, Northlew.  The Dillon family are recorded as Dilling.

I have been unable to find any record of George & Mary's family after the 1841 Census and do not know if they emigrated to Canada around the same time as Andrew & Anne.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Edit - Looks like a different family and Elizabeth was the child of Matthew and Mary Westlake of Jacobstow, Devon
