Emigrated to Canada in the 1900s, came back to fight in the first world war, then returned to Sedgwick , (PO box 4), Alberta. He was in Real Estate and had nodding donkey oil wells, he got rich, never married, lived in the back room of his office and sent money back to his brothers. He came to stay with my Grandpa (Tom) in 1965 and was so astonished that we had no telly that he bought us one! He seems to have led a very pleasant life, playing golf and exploring what was then a very wild country. He was short like Tom.
