I'm looking for any information on these two: Cyril Fowke (b. 1903) and Leslie Fowke (b. 1906, Deseronto, Hastings, Ontario, Canada). Their parents were Henry Fowke and Ellen Elizabeth Howe.
To date I have that they had an older sister: May. Cyril died in 1980, and Leslie died in 1971 in Orange, California, USA. They seem to have been quite musical/ artistic with Violin, Piano and eventually becoming 'Vaudeville Artists'.
Where did they go from there?
I don't need on-line Census information from search-sites though, because I have access to several and believe I have found all possible: Census, Emigration (to Canada), and Border Crossings (Canada-USA).
I also have a family photo album and believe several photos are from the Fowke family in Canada. I would like to find a source who can confirm this, and even possibly identify some.

Cyril Fowke is my Grandfather.
Even though he lived in Phoenix, AZ at the time of his death, he actually died in Toronto Canada (he had a massive heart attack while on a visit to his in-laws).
I met his brother Les when I was young, never met May but did hear a few stories about her.
If you are still looking for information, let me know.
