In the 1901 Canadian Census, Guillaume and Anna are listed as living in Montréal at 64 rue Plessis. His first name is listed as “William”, rather than the French name, “Guillaume”. Given the dominance of the English in business and social life in Montréal during the 1900s, it is not surprising that Guillaume would adopt the anglicized "William" as his first name. In the 1901 Canadian Census Guillaume’s occupation is listed as “Menusier” (builder).
Anna Nantel died in 1909 and was buried in the Notre-Dame-Des-Neiges cemetery in Montréal on 03-02-1909, in Section R, Lot 00425. The record at Notre-Dames-Des-Neiges lists her spouse only as "Lefebvre".
Following Anna's death Guillaume married Marie-Anne Vezeau (also spelled "Veziau") on June 3, 1909, at Saint-Vincent-De-Paul in Montréal. Marie-Anne was previously married to Damase Gareau, although I can find no record of Damase Gareau's death.
Guillaume and Marie-Anne Vezeau appear in the 1911 Canadian Census. In 1911 they are living at 294 Avenue Poupart. Guillaume’s occupation is listed as “Contracteur” (Contractor) and the industry he works in as “Generale”. According to the census, both Guillaume and Marie-Anne can read and write and speak both French and English. Guillaume's children from his marriage with Anna Nantel are Alexina, age nine, Emile, age seven, Donat, age five and Henri, age three. Guillaume has a life insurance policy for $7,000, which costs him $135 in premiums per year. Although Marie-Anne had at least six children with Damase Gareau (Donalda, Maria, Lea, Arthur, Lucien and Oliva), none of them are living with Guillaume and Marie-Anne, according to the 1911 census.
In the death record for Alderic Lefebvre in 1915, William is listed as a witness to the death and his occupation as an “entrepeneur de Montréal” (a “businessman from Montréal”).
