Found Albert Cherpaw Family in 1891 Census

1891 Canadian Census: Dufferin North, Selkirk, Manitoba

Albert Charpan b. 1845 Ontario, married
Mary Charpan b. 1856 Ontario, married
Emma Charpan b. 1877 Ontario, single
Wm Charpan b. 1878 Ontario, single
Benn Charpan b. 1883 Ontario, single
Hannah Charpan b. 1886 Ontario, single

Our Albert Cherpaw Family:
Albert James Cherpaw b. 12-14-1851/1854 Upper Canada
m. 01-04-1888 Uxbridge, Ontario (second marriage to Sarah)
EMILY JANE b. 09-21-1876 Uxbridge, Ontario [SEE BELOW]
William b. 1878 Ontario
Joseph b. 1880 Ontario
Hannah M. b. 06-12-1884
Benjamin F. b. 06-23-1885/1887

Michael Cox, who married Emily Jane, also lived in Dufferin North, Selkirk, Manitoba in 1891. He was single that year. In 1881 he lived in Dufferin, Marquette, Manitoba alone, but was listed as Married for some reason. In 1871, there was no Michael Cox in Manitoba, although there were about 8 in the country that could be him.

Too many coincidences in names and place for this not to be the right family.
