Helen's obit mentions that they had one son, Ian, who was an Ontario MPP from 1934 to 1942 and that, at the time of her death in 1951, he was the recently appointed register of deeds for the City of Toronto.

In the Canadian Who's Who for 1936-37, there is the following for Ian:

With the information provided by U. of T., I found Ian's obituary in the Globe and Mail. Its on page 38 of the 6 February 1964 issue. Unfortunately, since I found it on their online service, I can't forward it to you, but you should have no trouble accessing it. The obit really doesn't say much more than The Canadian Who's Who (1936-37) except that he was the Liberal Whip in the Ontario legislature from 1937 to 1942, served as the Registrar of Deeds for Toronto from 1943 until his death, and that he was married twice; his first wife, Dianmond Veale, predeceased him, and he was survived by his second wife, Ruth Lougheed. No mention of any children. Source: Mark Thorburn
