My G0 John Kilfoy was born and raised in St Mary's, Perth, Ontario, but I can't seem to find his baptismal record. I've gone crazy flipping through years of old microfilm records but haven't had any luck. I can't find any vital records of his birth either.

I have 2 census records from Canada in 1881 and 1891 showing him at ages 10 and 19, according to his death record he was born around April 1871.

I have been able to find records for 4 of his 7 siblings (Older siblings Mary, Ellen, Elizabeth, and Francis) from two different parishes, St. Josephs in nearby Stratford and Holy Name of Mary in St Marys.

His parent's names are Francis (Frank) Kilfoy, and Ann(ie/a) Kilfoy (nee Kegan)

Any thoughts on where else I can look? Any and all help much appreciated! Happy to provide any additional info.
