The easiest thing would be to thank all the many people that have been contacted during the researching of this history. There has been nothing but cooperation from everyone, for which I am really thankful. However there are a few people who must be given special thanks for their help, patience and forbearance. The first of these must be my wife Katheleen who racked her brains remembering all she could about her family, while digging out all her old photographs and letters. She also listened patiently to my endless theories, hopes, successes and failures, besides searching records in Alberta, Ontario and Ireland Archives and tramping through numerous cemetaries in these same areas. Without her the task would have been considerably harder. The same can be said, in varying degrees, to her family from whom I continually requested information and pictures. Mabel M "Wright" Duncan who wrote "The Duncans of Bethel" must be commended for the work she put into the book, while her niece Margaret Elizabeth Duncan, of Edmonton is thanked for introducing me to it. While on the subject of books Patricia Harts "Pioneering in North York", is a must to anyone who is researching that area.
