Hi again,
Looking for David G in the Toronto Directories - to see if there is a William at the same address. No luck so far.
Found David and wife Louella in 1911. On Sullivan Street (same street, but different number, from 1912 directory address).
http://automatedgenealogy.com/census11/SplitView.jsp?id=52249
The census says David was born in Scotland and came to Canada in 1902. Religion is Congregationalist. David is a clerk. There seem to be a lot of lodgers living with them, but no William.
1909 and 1912 Directories say that he is foreman current department, Eby-Blain (which is a wholesale grocery business).

1913 says David is a clk. Still living on Sullivan.

Birth record for David's wife in 1890 (transcribed as Lucilla)

1891 census in Kent, Ontario with her parents - is Lewella.

These do refer to my grandfather, David G. Mitchell, when they were first married, he was working in a grocery warehouse, that is correct. Luella's name is spelt different ways in different records, but they all refer to the same person.
Mitchell
