It looks like the Wilfred in the Canadian census will definitely not be yours. He appears to be a Wilfred Howard Priest b. 03 Oct 1895 in Vespra, Simcoe to parents Frederick Stephen Priest and Jane Anne Howard. This birth registration appears to match the info in that 1901 census record. Everyone seems to have their middle initial before their first name in that record.

Elizabeth Howard is down as Mother-in-law, visitor in the 1901 census.

This maybe a longshot for Wilfred, there is this newspaper article:

Hartlepool Northern Daily Mail 21 August 1939 that refers to a Wilfred Smith, a locomotive driver, employed by South Durham Steel and Iron Company, and of 3 Kimberley Street, West Hartlepool who had his cycle stolen.

Looking at the 1939 Register I don't think the newspaper report is for your missing Wilfred :(

That's a shame, I know the OP couldn't find Wilfred on the 1939 register.

Wonder what his DoB is on the 1939 ?

If he had a Geordie accent, that's suggesting it's someone from England we should be looking for ???
