Children of Robert William Rowles sought

[TROOPER ROLLO]

Robert William Rowles was born on Tuesday, 10th May 1892 at No. 1, Cooks Court, Cross Street, Chatham, Medway, Kent, England, the son of Robert and Rebecca Rowles (née Rice), a ‘Labourer’.

He enlisted in the Canadian Over-Sea Expeditionary Force on 30th December 1915 at Ottawa.

He married Hazel May Mallory on 21st March 1916 at Bellville, Hastings County, Ontario.
I thought they had at 1 daughter, Gladys born 1918, whose married name was “Burroughs’, and 1 son, Charles born 1920 as found in the 19212 census.

I have since found out via an obituary for Robert that they had more children.
Can anyone help Identify them please

He died on Thursday, 5th August 1948, age 56, at Ottawa, as a result of ‘Haemorrhage of Gastric Ulcers’. He was buried on 7th August 1948 at Beechwood Cemetery, Ontario by Rev. T. E. Downey.
Section 27 (Veterans), Range C, Grave 11.
