About Cargill, Henrietta Alberta
My Mother Henrietta Southam, née Cargill, was very sociable by nature, and had several close women friends with whom she played mah jong weekly. She met Wilson because her father was a Tory MP, and she lived in Ottawa when Parliament was in session. Her life was forever saddened by the death of her eldest son William, aged 23, in a car crash.
