looking for Sherman Ebbit or Ebbert

I'm desperately looking for information of my great-grandfather, Sherman. He might have had another formal name, but was born around 1871 (maybe) in Illinois (?). He married my great-grandmother Laura (Lucinda) Schuchard near Millville, Minnesota and had 6 children, 2 died; the remaining Walter (1892), Elmer (1894) my grandfather, Edla (Alice-1895) and Earl (1897). All children emigrated to Canada (Outlook, Saskatchewan) around 1910. Their mother had remarried in 1902 to an Adler and had many more children. She said that Sherman ran off and left her with the kids and that is the last trace of him we know of. My grandfather and his siblings used the name Ebbert in Canada, however, we found the census states Ebbit. We're not sure which one it is.
