I am trying to locate any information I can acquire on my
great uncle, Harry Brown. He and my grandmother, Bessie
were born in New Brunswick in a first marriage between
Edward Brown & Augusta Jane McCallum. Augusta Jane died in her late-20's and Edward remarried Carrie A. Lloyd who we
know passed away in Kirkland Lake in Oct. 1939. There are
many of the children and grandchildren of the second marriage still in the area of Kirkland Lake amd Haileybury.
We know that Harry went to Northern Ontario around the turn
of the century because of a Xmas card from his first wife
Alice to my grandmother in 1907 when Harry was in Espanola.
He remarried in his 50's to his sister's (Bessie)husband's
sister, Emma. They both pasted away in Fort William in the
late 50's - early 60's where they had been for many years.
There were no children by the 2nd marriage.
I have no record of any children from the first marriage and that's the line I'd like to pursue as we suspect there
were children with Harry & Alice.
Any help anyone can give us on either side of this family
would be very much appreciated.
