I am looking to respectfully connect with any remaining family members or cousins of Harold and Dorothy Willis who are still living on or active within the Six Nations community.My grandmother was their daughter, Janice Elizabeth Willis (sometimes went by Elizabeth). The family lived on/around the reserve during the mid-20th century (around the 1940s and 1950s) before some family lines spent time in Hamilton and eventually Kingston, Ontario.I am trying to learn more about my grandmother's roots, our family's specific Nation/Clan affiliation, and hopefully connect with any extended family who might remember Harold and Dorothy or their children.If this family sounds familiar to you, or if you think we might be related, please feel free to send me a direct message! I would love to chat.Nya:wen / Thank you so much for your time.

Looking for anyone that knew my mother, or went to school with her, or knew her parents. Her name was Rose Jamieson. Her parents were Claybren and Iva Williams. We had many conversations about one of her teachers (Oliver Smith). He was also my teacher in Grade 5 at S.S. No. 8. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
