The other listing says she was in Canada from June 1924-Dec.1924 and again from Oct. 1926-April 1931.

Going to join husband Thomas Marks, 51 Prescott Ave., West Toronto, Ontario.

You can do a look up For Thos's attestation at:
http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/databases/cef/index-e.html

Name: MARKS, THOMAS
Rank: CPL
Regimental number(s): 163394
Reference: RG 150, Accession 1992-93/166, Box 5929 - 2
Date of Birth: 26/01/1895
Attestation paper: Front of form - Back of form

His attestation papers say he's a car repairer


So I think he's the Thos living at 81 Blackthorne Ave in 1921:

I don't know who's listed at:
http://archive.org/stream/torontodirec192100midiuoft#page/163/mode/1up
Maybe the head of household, so Thos may be just a lodger.
Anyways, Blackthorn is between Eglington & St Clair, just W of Prospect Cemetery.
Only the S end of Blackthorn is in the modern Toronto city boundaries.
(All the other Thos Marks's live on Streets within the modern boundaries.)

Oh thanks for all that , Its so exciting to find out the little extra things that do make it all seem real and very often triggers a memory . Bill knew he was in the Canadian services but did not know he was born in Wellington . Where in fact we all were born .

We moved house last year and dont live there anymore it was hard to leave for Bill after 76 years . But we are happy here . Thanks very Much

I started this ancestry looking for my Aunt getting nowhere , but seem to be hijacked by my Husbands family. Thanks again Sweet xxx <3

I just looked up a similar # to Thos's

The LAC search portal is:

One can do the search and see his attestation papers.
One can also take the "search help" link to decode service #s (you want p 20 - Military District 2 is Central ON and 163394 is an 84th battalion #)
There are also links to say how you can buy his service record, and how you can see the 75th bn's War Diaries
