Oh shucks! You marked it as answered!

Thanks Marge

I'd marked it answered as I was after the 1920 census, but I'm grateful for any extra info.

is there any more info about Johnson Gibbins there?

Yes, in 1901 he was a lodger with the Gibbins family. He was born 23 Sep. 1855, South America and emigrated 1891. He was a waiter. Religion was Roman Catholic.
Johnson Gibbins was a vet surgeon, born England and emigrated 1882. His wife and son were born England and emigrated 1890. Daughters were born in British Columbia.
Should have mentioned Gwynn was a son. (Hmmph! My mother's name was Gwynn!)

Thanks so much for that

[immig 1882 (Florrence/Gwynn 1890) addy=635 Granville St - half a block from today's city centre]

Burnaby (where Gladys died) is a suburb east of Vancouver - the only hint you've moved from one to the other is that you cross Boundary St.
