    Notes:

    According to MacLean, History of Antigonish, vol 2, p 182: living in New York.
    “Before I was born and as a small child (maybe 4, which would have been 1950) my grandmother had a flat at 110 St. and Amsterdam Avenue in NYC. She stayed there in the Winter and returned to Heatherton in the Summer. I do not know the exact dates, but I do know she was doing this before 1945. At the time, my father, Fauster and his brother Wallace both lived in NYC. Another brother, Graham lived in Albany, NY or just north of Albany in Brant Lake, NY. But, then she stopped coming to NY and we would go to Heatherton every summer to see her. She died at the Sanitarium in Kentville in March of 1961.” [Mary Ann McDonald McConnell, Dec. 2000]
