Here is a small portion of Clarence Wease’s background, from records for relatives found in Lasswade Christian Cemetery. Begins with oldest person found:

Sadly Clarence died of a heart attack while driving to Peterborough, and drove off the road over an embankment. I always think of him when I pass by that corner of Highway 28. No history of Hilda Neil is known by me, although I remember her vaguely at the family farm in Chandos.
