Biography
Dosithé was born about 1903 in Springhill, Cumberland County, Nova Scotia (information taken from death registration in NB Archives), the son of Joseph Léger and Malinda Fagan. I suspect that the birthplace might have been Joggins. Dos and my grandmother were first cousins, and her and my uncle Ernie talked about him all the time. He must have been quite the character. Dosithé passed away at Moncton in 1964, aged about 60🕯
