Anyone have any information regarding the persons in this historical photo?
An individual recently contacted the Moose Jaw Express to inquire as to a historical photo in his possession:
"Hi, I am tracing my family history and have an old photo which was in an album of my grandfather, Arthur William Jackson. He emigrated to Moose Jaw in 1903 and married his wife Emily in Canada. She had followed him to Canada from the UK. They had a parcel of land in Canada. I have no photos of their life in Canada except the one attached to this email.
I believe this was one of their friends or neighbours. In 1912 he returned to the UK to help run a relative's factory.
I wondered if any of your readers could throw any light on the people in the photograph named as Mrs Percy Hale and Artie. Perhaps one of your readers
recognizes them as relatives."
If you do have any information, please respond directly to Richard Jackson at [email protected].
