This looks like them to me - 1911 census - although John's b.d. is a bit off. Three Harper families living next to one another. All b. Ontario, all English, all Presbyterian, all farming.

The b.d. are out a bit here too but I think this is the same family. All b. ON urban (probably Brockville) except father Samuel who was b. ON rural.
