Are you sure that he was born in Montreal? Most records say he was born in Scotland.
On this record he's with his wife Iola Clark Grieve:

These details added on the website - they're not mentioned on the gravestone, and I don't know how accurate they are. Haven't checked
:
Father: Donald Clark
Mother: Margaret McPherson
Spouse: Margaret Jessie Clark
Children: Annie Isabell [Clark] Stewart 1899-1991
Elizabeth Emma [Clark] Allan 1904-1994
Mary Clark 1899-1899
Alice Maud [Clark] McLean 1905-1992


EDIT:

Ah, I see the daughters' details are taken from their gravestones.

Annie married George Alexander Stewart 1890–1964. They had at least one child - only this deceased one is listed:

William Robert Stewart 1929–1994

William's wife:
Audrey H Haskell 1940–1982

No children listed, so either they didn't have any, or they're still alive.
