Wilfred and Ellen's children were John Gunnard, Leonard, and Gertrude. Wilfred worked as a powder monkey in the Anyox mine until he was gassed and developed yellow jaundice. His son Gunnard rode a mail horse to the mine. Wilfred died ca. 1917 in Vancouver. Ellen and the children returned to Prince Rupert where she worked at the Pioneer Laundry and Gunnard worked for the BC Power Company. Gunnard married Olga Johnsen in Prince Rupert on 21 December 1921 and had two daughters, Signe and Elenor. Gunner remarried in 1930 to Elizabeth Andrew Ross who was from Ayre, Scotland.
