So where was it? For that I go to Jennifer E. Ferris… Five minutes after I asked she found it. It was near the end of the 12th line of Lanark, and on the same road as the floating bridge. Lloyd was on this side of the water. “16 is wolf grove rd”- At least one Thompson family farm there. Thanks Jennifer!!
If you have any memories of Lloyd Ontario please let me know.
Not sure if they leaned Clayton way or Rosetta way, as they are about half way between??
