I think they are, but I wasn't telling you that.
I expected you to follow the links and decide for yourself.

The 1911 addy of 31 Davenport St has addy's of Locke St N & York St (presumably now York Blvd) on adjacent pages. This would put their house abt 2 m E of the present site of McMaster Uni.

Perhaps Mary had been married before. She's a Wilson for the births and marriages of the children.
