I wish :) I go there about once every two years (I live in Iowa, but grew up in Detroit) My next visit will be in September - I'm an invited speaker for The Bootmakers of Toronto.
Thank you for this information. My Dawsons may have passed through Toronto, but they later married into families who lived just south of Bloor, between Bathhurst and Spadina. Many of them attended Bathurst Methodist Church. I love walking those streets!
Yes Agnes is my mum she will be 94 this year, she is now in a nursing home in Ayr. She had her leg amputated last year and came through the other side, unfortunately she now has dementia. My dad still lives in the house that you visited. He has just had his 90th birthday. I have some pictures of the Frames that my mum had I will try and scan them and email them to you.
By the way my home email is alvasmiths@googlemail.com
I have been caught up in the family tree. Have found out through the linage of James Lambie and Jane Murray, my great great grandmother side way way back Sir's, Knights who wer born in castles gone way back, must say I am just so caught up in it (much more interesting)
Looks like we are 2nd cousins. The lady in Ayr was my mother (they still stay in Ayr) my dad now lives alone and in a wheelchair he has carers coming in throughout the day. My mum is in a nursing home (she will be 94 this year) my gran who you visited was 96 when she died. I remember aunt tine as well. I remember visiting her in hospital before she died.

Lucy and Edmond just had a wedding anniversary - I see Ancestry.com has it indexed as 1907 - I've seen this 1901 error before!
Dear Dara,

Any Dawsons from Michigan, New Brunswick or Ontario?

The internet really does make it a small world.
I look forward to keeping in touch
