John Franklin Wakeling, Born Charlottetown in 1878. Engaged in Northwest Mounted Police on March 20, 1900 from Charlottetown. NWMP records suggest that on 1903-03-31 he was discharged from the Force as "Unsuited for service."

Further to previous message. The Hartman suggestion that John Franklin was on the 1901 Census (Battlefords) seems like a good piece of information. He is shown as a "lodger". Several of the other lodgers are also members of the NWMP. Chances are - that's him.

Just in case you don't have this:

Born 24 August 1875 according to this card image:
name: John Franklin Wakeliny
event: Baptism
event date: 13 Nov 1876
event place: Charlottetown , Prince Edward Island
father: Thomas Wakeliny
mother: Ann Bell
Citing this Record
"Prince Edward Island Baptism Card Index, 1721-1885," index and images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/KCXK-XSN : accessed 19 Jan 2013), John Franklin Wakeliny, 1876.

1881 census:
name: John F. Wakeling
gender: Male
age: 5y
calculated birth year: 1876
birthplace: Prince Edward Island
ethnic origin: English
religion: Presb.
head of household: Thomas Wakeling
census place: Charlottetown Royalty, Queens, Prince Edward Island, Canada
Household Gender Age Birthplace
Thomas Wakeling M 36y England
Annie Wakeling F 43y Prince Edward Island
Minnie Wakeling F 13y Prince Edward Island
Maggie Wakeling F 11y Prince Edward Island
William Wakeling M 8y Prince Edward Island
John F. Wakeling M 5y Prince Edward Island
Robert Wakeling M 2y Prince Edward Island
Citing this Record
"Canada Census, 1881," index, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/MVN7-T4T : accessed 19 Jan 2013), John F. Wakeling in household of Thomas Wakeling, Charlottetown Royalty, Queens, Prince Edward Island, Canada.

He shows up as Frank in the 1891 census. In that census, his mother Annie's age is given as 32 and her parents' birthplace as Scotland; the household includes a Margaret Bell, 70 and widowed, who also was born in Scotland - thus likely Ann's mother.

Not helpful re John F, I know, but possibly of some interest if you are trying to track his family further back.
