Mary Jane....just remembered that when i was a weeeee tad we visited 2 men in Skye Glen. Never sure of the relation to dad, but they were Neil Angus and Sturgeon (?).
Before the war they had a farm worker named "Peter the Pollack" - he came to Halifax and worked at the shipyards until he died in the sinking of the ERG, a work boat sunk in the harbour. By another coincidence, my father-in-law was on the ERG as well, but swam ashore...
