[from Barb Norton of Edmonton]
He was married to Ellen McDonnell and their son, Bruce Stanley Norton, died in 1954 and is buried in Ohio according to my family records. We believe Ellen died in 1941 but do not know where she is buried. George was in the asylum (I think) and died there (Adelaide Township) but his death record and death notice in the newspaper indicates his body was brought to Brick Street.
