  • Notes 
    • Note 1./ Partial E-mail : 12/12/2002 : From: [email protected]

      I do remember being told by someone that the males worked in the brick-making yard near
      Great Wakering before emigrating to Canada. My grandfather Fred owned a gravel quarry in
      London, Ont. in the 1930s where he made cement blocks, which he then used to build houses.
      I understand that he had quite a profitable business but lost most of his savings when a local bank
      went bust during the Depression. He and my father built in partnership a number of homes in
      London, Ont. in the late 1940s/early 1950s, one of which became our family home. Grandfather
      Fred, or "Pop" Lizmore as he was known to everyone, died in a cement block cottage that he
      himself had built at Boat Lake, near Wiarton, Ont.

      There are only three things that I remember about Uncle Ab: a) he was tall and looked an awful
      lot like my grandfather "Pop"; b) he wasn't married at the time I met him (was he ever married?)
      and c) he was working at the township garbage dump in Byron, Ont. as a kind of a supervisor.
      He had a little wooden hut at the site with a stove and he locked the gates to the site at night.
      It gave him the opportunity to sort through the garbage and pull out things of value, like electrical
      cables with copper wire cores, which could be resold for recycling. He was the original recycler !

      Note 2./ Fred Lizmore and Dorothy (nee Hill), who were born in the Great Wakering / Southend-on-Sea area of Essex County, England and emigrated independently to Canada before World War One, where they met and married.
