The Mystery of Ethel and Hannah C. (Dedrick) Davis' Daughter

One of the dead-ends in my genealogical research that really irks me is this picture and the persons in it. I know, from the back inscription that this is, "Luena Davis' old home on Front Road in Houghton." Sarah Luena was Ethel and Hannah Davis' daughter. I believe she is pictured astride the horse in the bottom right. To the left, Ethel's children by Phoebe: Samuel A. who married Celia Becker, Lydia Emma who married Frank LESTER, and Warren T.
Back to S. Luena Davis, born 30 Dec 1866. On 12 Nov 1891 in Yarmouth, Elgin, she married William B. Graham. By 1901, they are living in Ridgetown and have a daughter, Anna, born 04 May 1893, according to the 1901 Census of Canada. After 1901, they seem to drop off the face of the Earth.
I've looked for the birth record of Anna N.L. Graham: No such luck. They don't seem to appear in the 1911 Census, despite my suspicion that they may have moved to the United States. It's just a hunch. Anyone care to help me out?

Kate Ford was correct! Sarah is listed as Sarah Susan Graham due to a transcription error. They are in Toronto in 1911.

Due to the comment made by Kate Ford, I was able to find a marriage record for the daughter, Anna Marie Luena Graham, who married Frederick William Cuffe on 6 August 1919 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
