(Johnson) Hall Bryant – Lot # 1515 – Greenleaf Avenue - Forest Hill Cemetery – Date of Death June 28, 1987 – Age 87 years – residence @ death Quebec Canada ================= GEORGE JOHNSTON was a famed photographer of Sherbrooke according to Hélène Liard, archivist, La Société d'histoire de Sherbrooke. He was my great grandmother's (LILLIE 'LILLA' ANN SLEEPER nee HOPKINSON) brother in law married to her sister VIOLET INA HOPKINSON. I have many family photographs by him and La Société d'histoire de Sherbrooke has quite a few too. I am interested to learn that GEORGE and VIOLET's daughter VEDA V. died in Quebec and hope to find an obituary for her at the ETRC. Also, most interesting to discover was that she and my great grandmother both died at age 93. Jacqueline Sleeper Russell
