His Attestation Form states that he is single and the CWGC record states that he is the son of the late Mr and Mrs J Dodd with no wife listed so it doesn't appear that he married.

He doesn't appear in the Montreal Directory .. see link .. however if you look under 'Street Directory' for the years 1917-18 and 1918-9 you can see who else was at the address. Start with Serie Principale and it is basically English after that.

Automated genealogy shows that Wm Dodd was in the 1901 census, aged 14, but 1911 census doesn't show him at 24.
