By the process of elimination of Mary or Mary Ann's only 2 born 1880 to 1883

Mary Ann Stonham - George / Jane's dau = Robert John Tollett

Mary's dau Mary Stonham 1883 must be the one who = Frank Walter Irwin
but she must have been under age -- she was 20y 1901

Can any one with Canadian records be able to locate her death please

If born out of wedlock, birth certs don't usually name the father, but it might be worth getting a copy just in case

a lot of trees seem to have Joseph White as the father of Joseph Stonham 1885 he is living with aunt and uncle - William and Charlotte Milgate also there is Joseph White 1861 as brother in law [ Charlotte's brother - she was White ]
dont know if Joseph White was Mary Stonham's 1883 father ??
