| Census |
1881 |
Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada [3] |
- In the 1881 Canada Census, Daniel and Johanna were not enumerated in the family home, indicating they had either died or moved out. A Johanna Saunders, age 16, shows up as a servant in another household in this census. A Daniel Saunders, a servant, died in Halifax in 1878, at the age of 17. However, there are not enough details to conclude that these individuals were definitely the children of Robert and Ellen Saunders.

Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada [5] |
- Three years after death of Robert Saunders Sr., the 1901 Canada Census reported that his five adult children were still living together in the same house. The five siblings recorded as Josephine, Marguerite, Helen, Robert, and William were all single. Their birth dates were recorded but the accuracy is questionable since some of them vary by several years, or give different dates from those recorded in other references.
