Hi,
Harvey Edward Sutton somehow became Harvey Samuel McLlwain. He was born in Wingham to a Clara Armstrong and was placed in the Perth Children's Aid around 1917 along with his brother and sisters and was soon after placed in the Beatties home just east of Seaforth. We believed his birthday was Sept 09 but it obviously was Aug 09. I am guessing that she let on it was Samuel's son (if he wasn't the father)and thus referred to him as Harvey Samuel McIlwain. I have not figured out where the Sutton name comes from unless really was his father. I don't believe he knew his sisters but he did know his brother but everyone knew him as George. Perhaps the family that took him called him George??? His brother was placed with the Lamberts in Wroxeter and he assumed their last name though never officially adopted. He he had a "sister" that contacted him that married a Zehr and lived around Milverton or Millbank area but wasn't sure it was actually his sister.
If you find anything further please feel free to share it thanks!
