At the time of the 1901 census in Galt, Theron and Alice were living in Galt in or near the downtown. Looking at other households on the page it is possible that they were living on or near Ainslie Street North. He is shown as a merchant.

At the time of the 1911 census, Theron and Alice are living in the Hotel Grand on Queens Square on the west side of the Grand River. His occupation reads as none, but this may simply have been that it was not known to the person answering the enumerator. Theron and Mary show no children with them in this census and it is not presently known if they did have children.
