p.s. "Mallegaum" -- what a wonderful middle name Thomas has (I'd been wondering what the 'M' stood for); and a possible clue on his grandmother's surname, perhaps? 

 Still can't get over how much info. you've so kindly given me!  I'm SO excited to have all this!

WOW!!!!!!!!

Debbie, I'm totally gob-smacked by all this extra stuff you've found out for me!!!!!!!!  Thank you so, so, so, so much! (You've given me enough here to keep me going on my tree updates for several days, now, I reckon! )

This is just AMAZING -- you must have covered about a hundred years of this (extended) family's history, here!  (And so quickly, too!)  Like I said, I'm just totally gob-smacked.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!

It would be worth your time and money to take out a month subscription to ancestry.ca to access the Drouin collection yourself.  Certainly double check my findings and to save the actual records for future use.  That would also give you access to the images for the 1861 and 1871 census.

Alice Jane Taylor b. 1851 (Thomas M. and Mary Redpath parents) married Alfred Walter Brailsford.  The record indicated that he was a manufacturer from Thornton near Bradford Yorkshire.
1881 English census in Bradford Yorkshire are Alfred and Alice J. who is shown born in Montreal Canada.  On the 1891 and 1901 in Bradford Yorkshire.  On the 1901 he is shown as a Worsted Manufacturer.
Alfred W. was born in Bristol Somerset and his children in Yorkshire
Ethel W. 23 on the 1901 b. Thornton Yorkshire
Enid L. 21 governess on the 1901 b. Bradford Yorkshire
Alice R. 19 b. Bradford, Yorkshire
Mary D. 14 b. Bradford, Yorkshire

FreeBMD should allow you to try and find marriages for these daughters.

Gertrude Francis, d/o Thomas M. and Mary Redpath should actually be
Gertrude St. Francis Taylor.  Passenger records, and marriage show the St. much clearer than the birth record.

She married 24 June 1896 at Windsor Mills.  Her father, Thomas M. Taylor, was deceased.  Groom was Emile Theodore Lambert, s/o Justin Auguste Lambert of Eastbourne, England, professor of language, bachelor, living Montreal. 

On the 1901 census Emile T. and Gertrude are living with Gertrude's sister, Margaret Beatrice and her family (Arthur Wells Robinson and son Francis).  Gertrude has a daughter Helen T.  On the 1911 census the family is still in Westmount Hochelaga Montreal but on their own.  Helen is known as Dora and daughter Clare has been added.

The family visited England in 1920 and the Form 30A filled out for their passage gives the full names of their daughters.  Margaret Clare Lambert and Helen Theodora Lambert.  Helen T. was born in Cambridge, Mass.

FamilySearch has the BC marriage in 1908 for Helen Ida Taylor to Valentine John Robert Christian.

Kate Peploe Taylor, d/o Edward Thornton Taylor and Victoria Dugall is on the 1881 Canadian census with her parents.  I can't find her on the 1891 but she should be in the Windsor, Ontario area as she married William Albert Hanrahan.  There are Ontario births and Roman Catholic baptisms for
Mary Florence Gwendolyne b. 11 Nov 1890 Windsor
Mona Beatrice (Mary Beatrice in the Catholic register) b. 10 Feb 1897

Edward Thornton b. 16 Oct 1886 and d. 30 Mar 1887 at 5 months

In Windsor for the 1901 and 1911 census but only daughters Gwendolyne and Mona are shown.
