B. A.,
I don't know where he was born, but I know he was born in 1900
(exactly!), either in Ontario or in Scotland. I never heard him talk
about his parents, so I don't know their names. I'll ask my Dad. I do
know that my father has 2 middle names "George Edward Pellew Cavin"
after the British Admiral Sir Edward Pellew (1757-1833), who supposedly
was one of our ancestors.
Steve
Steve - Do you have the year of your grandfather's birth, and who
his
father/grandfather were? Other than my Uncle Donald Cavin (who is not
your Donald), I don't see another Donald in Marion's list, but with a
date, I can narrow down my search for you. Betty

Andrew's last week. Elizabeth Martin Kirkpatrick Cassidy married John Greenlaw and
one of her daughters, also Elizabeth, married my great grandfather, Angus Greenlaw.
I'm not at home to check my files but Angus and John Greenlaw were cousins I believe.
