You don't give a location, but maybe I can help.
First I found the marriage record for Agnes WOLFE to Albert GREENE in Welland, ON in 1911 which lists her parents as Samuel WOLFE and C.E. BOOKER.I am assuming that is the source of your info for Agnes?
Then I found a marriage record for a Norma A. GREENE, age 17, b. Buffalo, NY, to Arthur T. CARBERRY, age 22, b. Detroit, MI, on 28-Sept-1935 in Wesleyville, PA.Bride's parents were Albert GREENE and Agnes WOLFE.Groom's parents were Gordon CARBERRY and Harriet SHORT.Norma's father was deceased.
In the 1920 census, Ward 2, Buffalo, Erie, NY:
WRIGHT, Frank D. age 47 b. NY
wife Katherine age 48 b. England, immigrated 1890
dau Edith age 23 b. NY
dau GREENE, Agnes age 25, married b. NY
granddau GREENE, Norma age 1 b. NY
I *think* Mr. WRIGHT is Katherine's second husband, but I can't find a marriage record.
1910 census for Ward 19, Buffalo:
WOLFE, Catherine age 41 b. England, widow, both parents b. England, immigrated 1880
son Earl D. age 18 b. Canada
son Henrietta A. age 16 b. NY
dau Edith O. age 13 b. NY
All three kids list their father as born in NY.I think Henrietta A. is the same person as Agnes H.
In the 1905 NY state census Catherine and the three kids are in ward 24 of Buffalo, and Henrietta is Agnes.
1900 census, same location:
WOFFE, Samuel b. July 1871 in NY, married 9 yrs, both parents b. Germany
wife Kate b. Feb 1869 in England, 3 children born, 3 children living, both parents b. England
so Eral b. Mar 1892 in NY
dau Agnes b. Nov 1893 in NY
dau Edith b. Jan 1897 in NY
I can not find a death record for Samuel WOLFE or for Catherine/Katherine BOOKER WOLFE WRIGHT.I can not find them in the 1891 Canada census, either as a couple of single.I can't find a marriage record for them either in Canada or NY.
I did find a death record for their daughter, Edith WOLFE DISHER b. 11-Jan-1897 in Buffalo, NY, d. 12-Oct-1990 in Charlotte, Mecklenburg, NC, buried in Mt. Olivet cemetery, Tonawanda, NY.Parents Samuel WOLFE and Katherine BOOKER.
