My maternal grandmother





Here is a photograph of my maternal grandmother, taken (I believe) at Westmount Park, around 1922. Her maiden name was Chew, and she was married to my grandfather, John R. Parker. My mother is on our right and my Uncle John, her only living sibling, on the left. An older child, Willie, died before my mother was born; a doctor was called when he was ill but by the time the doctor arrived, intoxicated, the child had died.
