I am narrowing the gap on John J. Cameron and family. In the Minneapolis
City Directory of 1897 it lists as residents at 3244 Humboldt ave S. as
Millie Cameron (Widow of John), Addie Cameron (Housekeeper @ 2319 Dupont ave
N.), Fredrick Cameron (Clerk for Torrance & Stellmacher), John Cameron
(laborer @ Lakewood Cemetery). The youngest child of John and Millie was
Elvie Cameron. She would have been a pre-teen at this time.
In 1900 they were all gone from Minneapolis. Addie became the wife of Arthur
H. Wallace of Duluth. Elvie Cameron lived with them in Duluth. Fred Cameron
moved to ND. and I lose John Jr. It would be my guess that Millie either
remarried or died.
Elvie Cameron became Elvie Cooper several years later. If you are on the
Wallace or Cooper lists please respond to this mail direct to me please.
I hope to soon find out where John J. Cameron died and is buried. I would
love to get a copy of his death cert. Thank you to Joanne Sher and Kathy
Hines for their help in this latest information.
All the best to all, Dean Cameron
