Sandra

Thank you so so so much for all this information, can't believe all this from a simple border crossing.

The 1901/1911 census for John and Mary Larkin, Blackmountain is the family that is connected to me and it was their son Denis that I found the border crossing for a funeral.

This is great information and I seriously can't not thank you enough for all this information.

Will track through all this information and let you know how it goes.

Thank you J

Pleased to help Jay.  Really hoping a Canadian expert will pick this up and can find something on those addresses that came to light on the border crossings.   Father - John Larkin (1877) and wife Mary at 91 Logan Avenue. Toronto and son James Larkin (1915 Toronto) and wife Margaret at 55 Logan Avenue. Toronto and daughter Mary Sutton (1904 Ireland) at 24 Mallon Avenue. Toronto.

Fingers Crossed For You.
