Would someone with access be able to copy the info from a census in Guelph, Wellington, Canada West of Charles Chase, born in England and being around 63 in 1861 please? He's on at least that and the 1871 census too.
Any help is appreciated

Hi,
You can see the Canadian census' for free through Library and Archives Canada. It is
slow loading. On the left side of page, select the year, click search, add his details,
and you will be able to see the original census.

Wow, thank you for all this, especially the info on Caleb being a mayor and the photo of him.
Any more info is welcomed greatly.

Benny you are very welcome. It is always nice to get little extra bits, would be nice to find more on his carriage company. Have a few things to do but will have another look for you later, perhaps DB will have a good idea of where we can find more about the carriage company.
