Can anyone help? I am looking for any information on Emily Florence
HYLAND or her family. She emigrated to Canada from England in 1925 with
seven of her children - Lilian, Charles, Honora, Nellie, Eric, Robert and
Mabel. Her passage was paid by the British Domestic Society and her

Thank you

125 Proctor
I would like to correspond with anyone familiar with the history and
genealogy of the Proctor family in Grey County.
What I know is sketchy at this point:
My great great grandfather was William Proctor. He was survived by his
wife Mary Webb who passed away on 27 April 1930 in her 85th year. The
funeral service was held at the home of her son-in-law, Mr. Richard
Solomon, on Gershom St., Meaford, Ontario, on Tuesday the 29th and at the
Thornbury Baptist Church. Internment at Union Cemetery, Thornbury,
Ontario.
Their children included my great grandfather Edward Thomas Proctor
(a.k.a. Thomas Edward) who may have been born on 21 Oct. 1868 in
Kimberly, Ontario (Township of Euphrasia, Grey County). According to
the 1901 census his birth date was 11 Oct. 1869. The Ontario Archives
Marriage Register (MS 932, Reel 80, Registration # 010969) says he was 24
on the date of his marriage to Agnes McKillican on 21 Feb. 1893 in
Alliston, Ontario.
His siblings may include four brothers (Jonas, Louis, Bill of Alberta and
George of Georgetown) and two sisters (Mrs. Richard Solomon and Mrs. John
Randle).
Both Edward and Jonas or Joe moved to northern Ontario and are buried in
the Webbwood Ontario area.

Still seeking information on gg/grandparents, Benjamin and

they raised 9 children, including my g/grandfather, Lorenzo Dow Hallock.

names of their children. They are both buried in Lakeview Cemetery. She
passed in 1888, he in 1892. Would appreciate knowing her surname,
possibly parents, siblings or any information or direction to help fill
