Thanks Doreen, I am aware of all the info you sent that is why I asked if someone could check the passenger lists border crossing and marriage's and then "Francis E" is on the 1881 with the family but can't find any trace of him after that ________________________________ From: D O' <devaney2004@hotmail.com> To: smfowler1@rogers.com; ontario@rootsweb.com Sent: Saturday, January 21, 2012 6:22:39 PM Subject: RE: [ONTARIO] Missing Fowler family In the 1881 Canada Census for Wood & Medora, Muskoka, the father of the family is entered under the incorrect spelling of "Frances" Fowler also indicating that he was a soldier.  The son Francis is listed in the 1881 with the family who gives his religion as Unitarian while the other family members are Church of England.   The only person missing from the 1881 Canada Census in the Fowler family is Anna M. and as she would then have been in her 20's it is likely that she married. Also in the 1881 Canada Census is the addition of "Louie Jessie Fowler" aged 8 born in Ontario as was her sister Florence.  All the others were born in England.   The 1901 Canada Census - www.automatedgenealogy.com - shows Francis Fowler, his wife Eliza living adjacent to their son Walter, his wife Josephine and their children - all in Wood & Medora, Simcoe county.  Walter and family are also in the 1911 Canada Census.   The "Fowler" surname is still be active in Muskoka and you may find assistance by contacting  http://www.mpsgg.com/    Cheers!
