Hi Madonna,
Here is some more information about the Oakley family.I haven't been able to find William, Charlotte and their sone Thomas on the 1901 census, nor Charlotte on the 1911.
The 1881, 1901 and (an in progress) 1911 census are available online - 1911 is the latest Canadian census available to the public.
