      I am really perplexed about all these brothers and sisters of my Gramps. He only talked {to my mothers recollection} about one sister, Teed. No one left to ask either.
      I actually have my Gramps’ fathers business card, he was a baker up in Canada. Also a picture of him. Almost missed it in a small envelope that looked like nothing.
      My Gramps was so class conscience. He was of the school that you did not mention family that were not in the upper eschelon. He became very big in his CPA business, in Whittier, CA. and hob nobbing was very important to him. I wonder if that is why he did not mention other siblings?? I don’t know. I do know when I was a teen, he would visit relatives in Vancouver every year. But my mom and dad never really documented who he went to see.

      I remember vividly my Grandpa McGarrity mentioning Gertrude. Gramps was so particular. Some of his siblings he didn’t talk to for whatever reason. Once he cut you off it stayed that way. He wasn’t too forgiving and quite a racist too I think.
      Normal old school Canadian type. He even used sort of a High English dialect which was weird to a California girl like myself who was use to slang as being cool.
