Hi Kathy,

I noticed you said your son took pictures of all stones left in section 126.
I have Hamilton relatives (my grandmother's family) in section 126 lots 203
and 191. The earliest Sarah N Hamilton 1876 Feb 6 her mother Henrietta in
1883 thenWatson 1889 (son) Hugh (son) 1891 Lizzie (daughter) 1901, Catherine
(mother in law) 1905, husband (Alexander) 1914 a couple more in 203 then
George 1964 (son) and his wife Emma 1966 in lot 191.

They were poor people from what I have found out and may not have had
headstones.

Thanks for your help.
Camille
