Biography

Baptismal record of Edward George Lockhart. Presbyterian Church of Canada Archives, 50 Wynford Drive, Toronto, Ontario Canada.

In Kinloss Twp Edward was a farm labourer and the township was so developed that land and farms were now expensive to buy. In July 1906 Edward, his wife Lily and their two children were living in Antler Saskatchewan. I haven't read his homestead file but Edward patented a Western Land Grant on: SW 34 5 30 W1 #757282
