Dear Shirley Sorry I didn't get back to you. My Dad died last year and that was followed by the illness and death of Mom this spring. Needless to say, my genealogy has taken a back seat for a while. I am back into things, but at the moment have just taken on the chair of the Mull Genealogical Gathering next year. I am trying to get my Ontario files organized and get the names back in my head. I used to recognize families almost instantly, but as I've been away from them for a while, I've lost that. I've printed off these letters and once my Mull week (I just returned from a planning week) is on paper, I will see what I can find.
