      1901, Elgin West, #58, Aldborough a-7; schedule 1, RG31, T6465, 31-40; Page 3, Line 18 & 19

      Smoke, Grace, Female, White, Daughter (to Wellington Haley on Line 15), Married, Born Jan 28, 1883; 18 years, Birthplace USA; Nationality Irish; Religion Methodist

      On Schedule 2, Page 3, Line 18 states:
      Lot 19, Conc 3, 1 house, 6 rooms. It seems that a person named McAlfure, Duncan owns this land, and perhpas these family members are working for Mr. McAlfure. Mr. McAlfure is noted on Page 1(Elgin 58, Aldborough a-7), Schedule 1, Line 47, Occupation Farme


      1911 Census, Canadian, District # 66, Sub Dist. West Lorne, 41, Page 3
      Lines 43, 44, 45 & 47
      Smoke, Henry, Male, Head, Married, Born Sept 1876, Age 34, Birthplace Ontario, German, Occupation Teamster
      Smoke, Grace, Female, Wife, Married, Born Jan 1883, Age 28, Birthplace USA, English, Immigration Yr 1890

      Haley, Lottie (see Lottie Haley)
      Haley, Thelma, Female, Sister in law, Single, Born March 1899, Age 12, Birthplace Ontario**
      **I think (hw) that this could be read as Haley, Evelyn, Dau, Single, Born Mar 1911, 1 mos, Birthplace Ont - Grace & Henry did have a dau. Evelyn born 1911. April , thus ???? certainly Haley should be Smoke
      ** Smoke, Velma, should be Thelma, as Henry & Grace had a dau Thelma born June 1903
