Follow up on Frank Paige

No luck in searching for other directories. I found that the 1914-15 and the 1915-16 directories are missing. So we will have to see if they might be somewhere else, possibly Queen's University archives. If you would like to look around some of the other directories go to:

You might look at J.B. Bunt hardware, Frank worked there for 30 years and took over form J.B.Bunt, I assume with my fathers help in 1948/9. Other hardware stores I remember were Chowns and Dalton.

On Nov 11 Jack Robin passed away, he was 92. In my high school days, I hung out with Herb Roblin, Jack's son. Jack, and his wife Mildred, who passed away last year at 100, where like a second family at times.
