I have found them in the 1920 census. Edwin is listed as a Dr. He is 56, came to US in 1892, Na in 1893. He owns his home and his own practice. Wife, Annie L., is 54, born in Canada and mother born in Ohio, father in Canada. Funny, it says she came to US in 1894, but naturalized in 1892.

I also found a death for Anna Woodbridge Rodd in 1925 in Essex, Ontario. I don't have access to Canadian Ancestry so can't see the details. I didn't see any death record in Canada for Edwin.

One last bit of info. I have found a one world tree for Anna and Edwin. It is the Woodbridge side and has her born in Utah, so I don't know how accurate it is. It also has Edwin dying in 1924 and Anna in 1925. I will PM you with the email addresses for the people who posted the tree.

On the One World Tree I saw, it said he died in 1924. I wonder if he didn't die in the US and then she came home. Makes it harder when it is in the US.
