Here is the info that you requested. I could only find 1 daughter
listed. Do you know the other childrens' first names?

1926:

Robert Gill - police, City - h. 2059 W. 6
Farquhar & Gill - wholesale paints & varnish - Frank Alexander, mgr/agt
- 6567 Laburnum
Richard Jack - Steward BC Penetentiary - h. 43 E. Columbia St., New
Westminster

1948:

Robert (Mary) police inspector, City - h. 2059 W. 6

1939 Voter's List:

Richard Jack - 813 St. Andrews St., New Westminster - Retired

I have an interest in the Farquhar part of your family, as I also have
this surname in my family tree from the Dundee area.

The reason why I listed Richard Jack was because he was involved in the
BC Penetentiary (Prison).

I also found the "Farquhar & Gill" entry interesting. Did you ever come
across this company name in Dundee?

If you can find out who Dorothy J. Gill married, then I can perhaps help
you further.

Have a look at my Farquhar data located at:

Heritage)

Let me know if there are any links to your family. I have a Mary
Farquhar listed there.
