From what I can gather, William Edwin was the son of Daniel Allard & Ella McLeod who married in SS Marie on 24 Dec 1895. Daniel was among 10 (+?) children of John Allard & Janet McAllister who married about 1862 (Ontario). John was born abt 1842 in Wye, Kent, England. Janet in 1843 in Scotland. Have not been able to go further on these two.
