There is a book entitled something like "Ontario Marriage Registries" which lists marriages from local parish records prior to the establishment of a BDM Registry for Ontario. Try contacting the Ontario Genealogical Society... OGS. Look on the web. They have researchers who might be able to help. Also, Lambton Co., Ontario is in Southwestern Ontario. Many folks tended to migrate from there toward Michigan.... Hope this helps.
