Notes and Questions
Please sign in to write a note for this page
Wondering if the last name listed is female, ending in I for Breakfasts at 25.29?
First entry in list:
“Thos[.] Casey Guarding pound”
“Touring” May be “towing”? (If egg collecting was done by boat either up or down river of the hatchery)
“ Jas.” Short for James
“Bolton”
“Danl.” Seems best choice
Could be “Elzear Lepage”
“Wm” short for William
Alex is probably Alexander. If this was a camping trip to collect eggs, men often hired as cooks.
