My grandmother’s childhood is almost a complete mystery to me. I know only the most basic of facts. If I just went by the information that I have been able to find, you’d almost think that she had sprung to life fully formed the day she met my grandfather.
Incredible research once again, Richard! I love the way you ‘peppered emails’ to get a response! I’ll remember this technique. How timely, also, so you and Michael could go to Bedford on your recent trip. The photos and information you’ve found are wonderful.
We’re going to see Dad in a couple of weeks to celebrate his 90th. I look forward to sharing this with him. Xx
I was just able to make it back to Brockville where I finally found the McElhinny gravestone with John Jr./Harriet and John Sr./Frances - our 2nd and 3rd great-grandparents. It was tucked in beside a tree (which has grown up since they were buried) but I was able to find it using the map Jo sent me. Please give them my love. Rumors that we may be coming down for some concerts in the coming year!! xoxox
