Gordon. Most of the Gordon family moved to the U.S. except Mary Gordon McKernan who married in Vespra Township and died in Toronto in 1926. She is buried in St. Mary's cemetery, Barrie, Ontario, with other McKernan relatives including James' and Daniel's sisters, Sophia and Mary. I didn't know Anna Alice lived in the U.S. but, when I read your query, I did some census checking and I think I have figured out the parents of Willard Vallie/Valley. If you would like to contact me at my personal e-mail address, I would be glad to share what I have found.
