Hello, I was going through some old e-mails and found this obituary posted by Gerry Mattinson back in 2004 to the NS Cumberland mailing list. I can not determine the parents of the Greta Oulton of Maccan who is listed as his wife. In the 1958 Voters List on Ancestry.com, I have found a Miss Greta Oulton, waitress, Maccan, RR 1 listed as well as a Mrs Mary Oulton, housekeeper, Maccan RR 1. So Mary could be her mother or someone totally unrelated. Does anyone have any information on the parents of Greta Oulton or the husband of the Mrs Mary Oulton, both of Maccan, NS? As I do not have any information about an Oulton family in Maccan in the 1950s, can anyone provide information on that?
