About the Author

Agnes wrote this book upon the request of her sons, Gary and Francis Graf. She and her husband, John Weicker, live in Victoria. Agnes was born and grew up in Saskatchewan. She became a teacher, and followed this career for thirty-five years, taking her to Asquith, Cudworth, and Lloydminster, Sask. then on to Kelowna, Prince George, Quesnel, Lilloet, and Victoria. This book covers the years from 1881, when Agnes’s father was born in Southampton, England, immigrated to Canada, raised a family (Agnes being the youngest) on to 1946 when Agnes moved to B. C. The years from then onward may be forthcoming in a second volume if time and energy permit.
