Wilber DeWolf, b.1869 residing in Bastard & Burgess S., Leeds S. in 1880 with mother Malisa b 1838, brother William and sisters Anna, Clara, Clovisa and Phoeba. Is this the same Wilber DeWolf that married Agnes Cain (Kane) from Perth, Ontario abt. 1890? They had one son Ambrose G. DeWolf who died in Watertown, NY 1951. Thank you.

I have a William Dewolfe, b. unknown, m. Mae Cheetham, b. unknown, d. Nov. 1939. Their 6 children:
1. Anna Melissa Dewolfe, b. 1909, d. 1936, m. Oct. 17, 1928, Borden Edward Kelsey, b. Nov 11, 1904, d. Jul. 23, 1963.
2. Ida Dewolfe, 3. Vera Dewolfe, 4. Harold Dewolfe, 5. Mildred Dewolfe and 6. Verna Dewolfe.
Could this William be the one you referred to? He may have named his 1st. daughter Anna after his sister.
I also have children for Anna Melissa and Borden Edward and parents for Borden Edward.

Thank you Garry, but it does not appear to be a match. I am looking for a Wilby DeWolf b. Can., he married Agnes Cain from Perth, Can. abt 1891, they had one son Ambrose George DeWolf b. 20 Aug 1892 Can., d. 12 June 1951 Watertown, NY. I would guess Wilby died in Can. shortly after the birth of Ambrose as his wife Agnes, moved to the US (Watertown, NY area) in 1895 and shortly after remarried a Richard Young.

I believe Wilby's formal first name was William. We have no death record for him and no info on Agnes second marriage. In ambrose's obit it lists sisters Martha, Hattie, Isabelle Aretta, and Arvalena and an adopted brother Charles Young. I have a copy of his obit.

any info would be appreciated. If you are researching Agnes Cain as a first wife does this mean there was a second...??? Also suspect Agnes and William were not married, merely the parents of Ambrose. Need to find some place to get William pinned down so I can work backwards to find his ancestors. Since he was not with Agnes when she emigrated and married Richard Young, I'd like to know if William went on to have another wife and family. I am one of the last two of our direct line so once I'm gone it won't matter, but it matters to me.
