Surnames: Leece, Blossom
I am looking for information on the Leece family. They were living in Brampton in 1901.They were on the 1901 Census Index listed as Luce. The parents were, we think, Richam (or something like it) Leece and Eliza and were probably born in England. The children were Edna b. 1892, Amos b. 1893 (later married Catherine Bell) Blossom b. 1896 and Willie b. 1899. The children were all born in Brampton, we think. I would really appreciate a look-up in the 1891 Census for that area, or any other record for that area that may contain the Leece family information.

I checked the film of the 1901 census and his name is Richard. He was born in Ontario. Eliza was born England and immigrated in 1874.
I couldn't find any entry on the Ontario Marriages for them but it is far from complete.

I am from the Leece family. the kids were Edna, Amos, Blossom, William (who died in WW1), Ruth Eliza, Albert, Susan (my Gramma), Olive, and Richard. Eliza's side of the family came from Wicken, Cambridgeshire, UK. I am not sure where Richard's side came from yet.
