Bill Wagstaff's Recollections of Great Aunt Ada Added by jinilil on 4 Mar 2009 Originally submitted by alisonjabi to Wagstaff on 16 Jan 2009
I remember as a child visiting my father's Aunt ADA on Greenwood Ave and later going there as a young man. Her sister lived with her at that time, but I do not remember her name. She had a daughter whose name I believe was Leone and she had a beautiful singing voice. I remember she sang "Oh What a Beautiful Morning" and it was fabulous. I have never forgotten her singing.
Ada married James Harris, son of William Harris and Caroline Richardson, on 15 Oct 1901 in 1140 Queen Street East, Toronto, Ontario. (James Harris was born on 24 Apr 1878 in Toronto, Ontario, died on 1 Jan 1929 in Toronto, Ontario and was buried on 3 Jan 1929 in Park Lawn Cemetery, Etobicoke, Ontario.) The cause of his death was Cerebral Haemorrhage.
