There seemed to be a lot of shame attached to the name Timmerman.

This is probably why: George came from a very good family, but he had left home as a young man because he had taken up with a girl who maybe had a baby. We're not just sure if that was it, but in any case, she didn't meet their
standards. Nan knows her name but can't remember.

This child became "problem relatives" who lived in the area.



His brother, Parker Smith Timmerman, saved face for the rest of them.



Before she married the Timmerman she had a baby whose last name was Smith.

122 Suddenly on November 6, 2022 on the eve of hunting at the age of 51. Beloved husband of 22 years to Kim White. Proud father of Kayla and Tristan White. Survived by his mother Cynthia Sorensen (Fred Sorensen), his father William White (Joyce Lewis), brother Derek White (Heather), step-brother Darren Antoine (Kate) and kids Lennon and Frankie, step-brother Jesse Antoine (Amanda) and kids Mackenzie and Kayson. Missed by his in-laws Lorne and Beverley Pfeifer, brother-in-law Trevor Pfeifer (Karmen) and kids Lexi and Jayce and special aunt Margaret Condie DaSilva. Predeceased by his 4 grandparents and a close cousin.

Brad's first passion was loving his wife and kids and spending quality time together whether it was watching a movie or going hiking. Brad was an avid outdoorsman loving hunting, fishing or just walking in the woods. So when he found his dream job at CFB Kingston as a Range Control Patroller he didn't find it work as it was something he enjoyed and was passionate about because he was outside and looked forward to going in everyday. Other hobbies were camping, reading, role playing and gaming.

Bradly’s family will receive friends at the Township Chapel of the Gordon F. Tompkins Funeral Homes, 435 Davis Drive (Centennial at Taylor Kidd) on Monday November 14 from 11 a.m. – 11:45 a.m. A Funeral Service will be held in the Chapel at 12 p.m. with interment to follow at Glenhaven Memorial Gardens.

125 The table was passed this way.



Daughter, Hazel Abrams, said in a phone conversation: Mary Jane Wilson lost her inheritance. Her brother had wheeled it away because he was still on the farm, and he wanted her land too so he could make more money. She gave it
to him.



Mary Jane Wilson's mother's name was Elizabeth Campbell and Elizabeth's mother was a Snook.



Her mother was a dutchess of some place-- Wessenburg? Sister Muriel used to tell that life was very hard for her becuase she never learned to speak English.



Apparently Hazel has an old newspaper with this information in it.



Mother used to tell nan about this but didn't know if she was a princess or a dtuchess or what, but "it came out..."



she had a daughter Elizabeth. This daughter was nan's great grandmother. Gradma Wilson's Mother.



Her father's name was John Campbell. He founded Inverary and the whole area there once belonged to him and to the Illans.



This is not correct:

(Her Father's name was James Jonathon Wilson January 13, 1866, and his mother was Mary Jane Nesbitt Wilson).

127 These are notes from a conversation with Nan over the phone from New Jersey:



"Somewhere in our ancestry we have the blood of Bohemian royalty. Bohemia is a small Eurpoean country in the neighborhood of Holland.



"Abraham(?) Wartman became a cooper. A cooper is a man who makes wooden conatiners which were used as household items back in the 15th, 16th or 17th century such as barrels and pails for carrying water, like you've seen milk ma
ids in movies carrying.



"It was either he or his son (John?) who came down the St. Lawrence toward Kingston and chose a property on which to build.



"This property is behind the Dupont plant right on the lake shore, and still has the original house standing on it.



"There he built a nicely proportioned stone house. It was in a beautiful location.

He had a daughter Catherine and two sons Peter and John.

Alexander continued to run the farm and store, and was Postmaster and secretary-treasurer of the school for many years.



He built a new cheese factory to replace the old one. As Alexander's health began to fail, his son, Kora, came to manage the farm and business and look after his mother.
