G-Grandmother - Rebecca Irene Dickson (Dixon) b.1900 sharbot Lake Ontario d.1983 Toronto, Ono
G-Grandfather - George burt (I have no info but his name as Irene would not speak of him only to say he wasn't good. as far as I can tell he left either before my grandmothers birth or shortly there after.)

It's possible she met him when she came to Toronto there are big gaps.
But honestly only had his name and assume they were In Toronto when my great grandmother got preggers. I assume that they had gotten married as she changed her last name in the census.

Only things I found were voter's list in Toronto while she was living on Gerrard Street and living with daughter Georgina and her husband in 1963, and on 1901, 1911 and 1921 census list.
She is not a witness on either of her sister's marriage registrations.
