Re: Fairview Cemetery - Acton
Hi Marilyn I just am now seeing this post and was wondering if you still have the pictures of the Allan headstones. John Allan Sr. was a ggg grandfather. Are you related? Have just discovered a lot of new info on the Allan family and suspect that a number of them are buried in Fairview.
Thanks for any help Darla

Re: Fairview Cemetery - Acton
I found a death record for a John Robert Van Fleet who died in Hamilton hospital Jan 1, 1936. He was to be buried in Milton, ON which is not that far from Acton. I believe his wife was Mary Mills, but he had a daughter, Mabel. I also found a marriage for a son of John R. Van Fleet - James Albert - who married a "Mabel Tressa Thompson" in Halton 26 Jul 1924. Could the names have been mixed up? Or maybe these are from a different family altogether. This family was in Milton in the 1901 census.

Re: Fairview Cemetery - Acton
I have Allan's in my family tree. A lot of them infact. And I am looking for more information regarding them. I know that George Allan, married Daisy O'Grady and they had 2 daughters. This is where my conncetion comes in. His oldest daughter was my great aunt. Velma Allan. Now I know the George Allan past on back in 1952, he is buried in Canton, OH. He had a step son, when he re-married Ethel Hickey. George Allan's parents were Catherine Curran and David ALlen. David Allan's parents were James Allan and Margaret Allen. Come from Scotland. If any of these sound like a connection pls let me know. Got lots more on them then this...thanks kimberly
