Note: N115 Article from Winnipeg Free Press, Friday, June 10, 1949, page 14. Ruth Strachan Is Guest At Shower Honoring Miss Ruth Strachan, Bride-elect of July 9, Mrs. Gordon Garwood and Mrs. S. J. Flook held a miscellaneous shower, Wednesday, at the home of the former, 53 Varennes avenue. Assistants were Mrs. George Garwood, Mrs. John Cook, and Miss Donna Garwood. Gifts were presented. _________________________________________ Article from Winnipeg Free Press, Thursday, June 23, 1949, page 16. Mr. arid Mrs. Newton I. Reed announce the engagement of their, youngest daughter, Ruth Marilyn Strachan, to Mr. Henry Wilcox, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. John Y. Wilcox. The marriage will take place on July 9, at 3 o'clock in Regent's Park United Church. _______________________________________ Info on locations of Melvin and Ruth's three children ca 1972 (from email from Sybil Grace [Strachan], 25 April 2012) I've looked back in old telephone directories we kept and Peter has written in Eleanor Strachan (Mrs. E.R.Mace) 4 Littlerock, Valois, Montreal. This is followed by Ruth Strachan (Mrs. H.J.Wilcox) 84 Triton Bay, Winnipeg. These entries would have been made probably about '72. And I've just found an entry also by Peter for Sara Louise and John M Cook, 23 Lascelles Blvd, Toronto, phone 416-488-7053. This info probably came when I drove west with a friend and visited briefly with Ruth in Winnipeg. Addendum from Margaret Strachan Taylor (email of 27 April 2012) Sara Louise's husband John Cook died about 10-15 years ago.
