Hi, Fred,
My grandmother's family was all from Newmarket/Mt. Albert/Queensville area. From
census, marriage records, early biographies I have evidence that Lucy Cane was a sister of
William Cane of Newmarket. She married first Thomas Nathaniel Niles who died prior to 1860
then married Henry Stiles, the husband of Thirza Belfry who had also died previously. Lucy
had a son named William Cane Niles who married Amelia Belfry, daughter of Christopher
Belfry. When Lucy's son and daughter-in-law died in 1890, her granddaughter, Olive,
went to live with the family of Henry Stiles Cane in Newmarket. At least that's what
all the evidence says. Much of this can be found on Ancestry.
