• Notes

  Mrs. Bryce and her family came to Canada in 1855. On the voyage they suffered shipwreck on the Bird Rocks in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and they lost everything. They were picked up and landed at Pictou, Nova Scotia, where they were kindly and hospitably entertained for seventeen days by the late Mr. George Pringle, of Queen Street, Galt, who was at that time living in Pictou.
