Hi Diane;
I don't think that your Eric Thomas Robertson is any relation to my wife's
grandfather, John Glasgow. I have a book that was prepared in 1984 tracing
our branch of the Robertson's to a David and Mary Robertson of Iroquois,
Ontario. But the book does not show any Eric Thomas.
My interest is in Isabel's grandparents who lived in Foremost, Alberta. John
G left Iroquois about 1890, in the late 1890's he travelled into B C and
down into Okanogan, Washington. However there are gaps which I am trying to
fill in for a family reunion in August this year. All very interesting
stuff. Sorry I cannot be any more help than that.

Regards

Malcolm
