Biography

Father was born in Pennsylvania and mother was born in England. ^[1] Isaac M Lemon, the father of John M, was born in Canada. Isaac's parents were both born in Pennsylvania, as were some of his brothers and sisters, but all sources I've found (Canadian Census records, and the person who originally shared Isaac and Ann's info with me in the 1990's) have Isaac definitely born in Canada. More specifically, in Lemonville, York, Ontario, Canada. Lemonville was named for this Lemon family. It's in the Whitchurch area of Ontario, just outside of Toronto. Isaac M's father, Baltis Lemon, and his mother, Mary Mendenhall, were both born in Pennsylvania. ^[2]
