Biography

Melburn was born on November 30, 1929, son of John Reid and Lulah Sidney Sherwood.

In 1931, John and Lulu were living in the Town of Prescott, Grenville-Dundas, Ontario[1], with their children: Raymond, Irvine, Mansell, Reginald, Melbourne, Gertie, and Viola, as well as John's brother, Dave. Two years after the Great Depression, neither John nor Dave had a steady job, and worked as labourers at odd jobs.

He was predeceased by his brothers Raymond, Irvin, Reginald and Mansel and sisters Gertrude Hunter, Viola Windover and Marie Gabriel.
