My grandfather was George Errington Young, born 1898 on Bonnie Doon Farm at Manitou, Manitoba. He was the youngest child of Matthew and Maria Anne Young. I have considerable information concerning the Young family and often heard my grandfather's oldest sister, Mabel Fulton Young (Mackintosh) speaking of her grandfather's death while hunting ducks at Rice Lake, Ontario. Unfortunately, I have no antecedent information and, indeed, no authentic documentation of the birthplace of any of the three children of William Tweed and Anne Dawson Errington. Although Aunt Mabel, who was singularly knowledgeable concerning family matters always told me that her grandfather was a "William Tweed," just a few minutes ago I came across the marriage entry #001445-78 (Bruce County) of Uncle George Tweed and Minerva Treleaven which gives his parents' names as "Geo. & Ann Tweed" and his birthplace as "Percy." I sincerely hope t! hat you have been successful in locating some authentic records regarding the "Tweed." I might also mention that this branch of the family is of some special interest to me as my mother's maiden name was "Mary Tweed Young," her grandmother being her namesake. She was the eldest child of George E. Young and Josephine Ruby Brooks and was old enough to know her grandmother quite well. I am born 1947. With kind good wishes, Felix G. Kuehn
