Does anyone have information about or the date of when the "Ambros Clothers Mill" in Kemptville burnt down? We are in possession of an undated letter that references this fire and I would very much like to be able to ascertain the date it was written.

Please feel free to contact me.

I have noticed this very memorable name often, as I knew a man by this name in my childhood in Kent County. He was a retired dentist, living in a snall town on Highway #3. I think his name must have been Bernard, as everyone called him "Bennie". That's just a guess. He was always single when I knew him, but thought you might be looking for him on your base. He had a great talent for photography, as he took pictures of the neighborhood kids, developed them himself and gave them to us. Very likeable man. Treena

Surnames: Quackenbush
According to my father, his name actually was Edward Baird Quackenbush. And although his wife's name was Ellen, apparently, he didn't like it and always called her Helen. They had 5 boys - Allen, Clarke (my father), Bruce, Howard and Ivan. They are all gone now. Ivan was the last one and passed away recently.

I do have a picture of Ellen and her three sisters when, I'm guessing, they were all in their early 20's or so. I can email it to you if you would like. My email is Libra3024@aol.com I would love any pictures and/or info you have. For more information on this branch of the family, check out www.quackenbush.com which is a website the son of one of my cousins started.
