Notes
a. Note:   N105 Information about his wife's name and relationship from an email message of Feb 28, 2012 from Carrie Moore, at Blake's Funeral Home in Thunder Bay:
  Hi Tim,

 I checked the file for William Strachan, and the only information on family I found was out of town relatives listed in the post funeral/thank you notice:  his wife, Dr. Grace Strachan from Toronto; Eileen and Bill Strachan from Burlington; Margaret and Jim Taylor from Toronto; and Sybil and Peter Weinirch from Ottawa.  I don't have any contact info for any of them.  Unfortunately, records from years ago are as thorough as the records we keep today.  If you contact Riverside Cemetery (807)345-8647, they may have more information on file, such as information of the interment rights holder of the plot he was buried in (who is probably a relative).

 Sorry I couldn't provide more information.  Good luck with tracking down your family members.

 Carrie Moore
 Blake Funeral Chapel
 _____________________________________________________________________
  The names of the three relatives in this email (Bill, Margaret, and Sibyl) match the names of three of Isabella McLeod's grandchilden listed in her 1947 obituary, which is why I list them here.
 Update: these attributions are confirmed by the obituary of Grace Pachan Strachan.
b. Note:   Married by Andrew D. Reid, a Presbyterian minister. Witnesses: Melvin D. Strachan [my father, aged 16!] and Hilda Hogberg
