From ancestry.ca unless otherwise stated.
Some of this you will already have.

Marriage: John Colbert, 25, b Bowmanville, living Glamorgan, lumberman, s/o Daniel & Margaret Colbert, married Cassie Staley, 21, b Ontario, living Glamorgan, d/o Jacob & Margaret Staley, witn: Thos Buchanan of Wilberforce & Rhoda Learoyd of Minden, 25 Oct 1892.

Marriage:
John Calvert, 30, farmer,widower, b Bowmanville, living Kinmount, s/o D Calvert married Priscilla Peters, 25, Hamilton, Kinmount, d/o Abraham Peters, 14 Sep 1898, Victoria County.

Although the name is spelt wrong, it is likely the same people.

1901 census
Glamorgan, East Peterborough County

COLBERT
John, head, b 15 Feb 1863, 37
Priscilla, wife, 13 Mar 1875, 25 [this birthdate has to be wrong - see 1911 census below - but that is what the enumerator entered]
William J, son, 4 Apr 1901

There are 2 Staley families on the same page.

Births:

Frederick Colbert, b 12 Apr 1894, s/o John Colbert & Catherine Staley, Glamorgan, Haliburton.

Births: different wife

William John Colbert, 14 Apr 1900, s/o John Colbert & Priscilla Peters, Haliburton County.

Frances Colbert, 2 Sep 1902, s/o John Colbert & Priscilla Peters.
Laura Colbert, 31 Aug 1904, parents as above
Hugh Colbert, 11 Apr 1908, as above
All born Haliburton.



1901 and 1911 census on www.automatedgenealogy.co
1911 is the last one released.

1911 census Glamorgan Haliburton

COLBERT
Priscilla, Jan 1864, 47, widow
William, Apr 1900, 11

Laura, June 1904,6
Hugh, Apr 1908, 3
James, June 1910, 11/12
Lizzie, June 1910, 11/12



Could this be John's death?

John Colbert, d 25 Feb 1911, approximately 56, b app. 1856, born Goderich Ontario, died Glamorgan Tsp, farmer, no parents given, informant: Wm W Armstrong of Gooderham, died of la grippe/1wk & intense congestion lungs and liver, Glamorgan, Haliburton County.

What happened to Frederick? I cannot find him on 1901 census?

That is about all I could find on them.

Apparently there are 2 cemeteries in Haliburton.

Evergreen Cemetery
Glamorgan Cemetery, Con 5, Lot 30 [transcribed]

This is on the site of Michael Stephenson. You can contact him on michael@ontariogenealogy.com

I have used him before and he is very good and charges reasonable prices. Other than his site which you have to pay to belong to now [and I don't], it doesn't appear than anyone else has transcribed either of the above cemeteries.
He's be worth a try.
Or you can order the transcript from the LDS Library or if you live near Toronto, go and look at it in the Archives.
Good luck.

I'm sure there are more than 2 cemeteries in Haliburton. Don't know why I wrote that.
