• Notes

  Leda and her family lived in and around Toronto from late 1928 and into1943. However, they did change their living quarters quite a bit. Hereis a fairly complete list of places they lived, information which comes from the kids' school records: Nov 1928 2 Foxley St Sep 1929 139 Ossington Jan 1930 31 Argyle St Sep 1930 817 Queen W Sep 1931 132 Euclid Ave Sep 1931 90 Stafford St then 80 Cockburn Ave Hunter Bay Nov 1931 62 Tecumseh Jan 1932 221 Bellwoods Ave then 207 Bellwoods Ave Sep 1932 17 Mitchell Ave Sep 1933 20 Claremont Pl Sep 1934 261 Euclid Sep 1935 15 Brookfield then 104 Ossington Ave Jun 1939 95 Ossington Ave then 94 Ossington Ave then 139 Ossington Ave Jan 1943 178 Lippincott St ___ Bio from Facebook on 30 April 2010: 30 April 1901 -- Born in Victoria Harbour, Ontario, Florence Leda ARBOUR was the 2nd of 5 children of mill worker Pierre ARBOUR and his wife Philomene StAMAND. Leda was just 9 when her mother passed away. She thenassisted her older sister Hilda incaring for their younger siblings while their father worked. Leda was about 19 when she married Ernest Percy CONNERS in Toronto. Leda and Ernie then welcomed 9 children into their home, 4 daughters and 5 sons. Throughout the years from late 1923 toearly 1943, this growing family struggled financially. Ernie worked as aTruck Driver (Nov 1928, Sep 1929, Sep 1931), a Fruit Peddler (Sep 1932), "On Relief" (Sep 1935), and Shipbuilder (Jan 1943). Commensurately, the family moved around quite a bit,living in at least 21 places during these 19 years. True tragedy struck this family on 15 July 1939. On that day, 9-year old Allan was playing around on the roof of his 2-storyschool before plunging 30 feet to his death. Although Ernie was alreadyan alcoholic before this incident, he no doubt stepped up his drinking to drive away the pain, which of course only contributed to the family's continued misery. Leda died in 1975. It is unclear when or where Ernie passed away. Although 4 grandchildren and one great-grandchild are known for this couple, they likely have more.
