    Note that this second page, continuing the family, was not in the original microfilm of the Library and Archives of Canada -- and thus not in Ancestry.com's images. Instead a page from the Waterloo County census was mixed in with the Victoria County pages. Wesley Johnston called this to the attention of the Library and Archives of Canada in April 2012, and on 13 Apr 2012 Mary Munk of LAC sent him this copy of the missing page, which will eventually be added to LAC's Collections Canada image database and to Ancestry.com. It is a particularly important page, since it shows that Amarilla (Harrison) Martin had taken in her brother James' son Thomas after his mother had died.
