Blind lifetime friends were part of my late wife Linda's family history.

John Scott & David Moore
Life-time friends who lived on the Scott family farms between Vaughan and King in the mid-1850s.   The Scotts were from one branch of my late wife, Linda (Cairns) Wallace.   John Scott and David Moore were inseparable fixtures in southern York County for decades, seen almost daily walking about with David leading the way and John Scott following along clutching David's coattails.   Photo from family history files.

Eaton Hall - built in 1938...

EATON HALL

Eaton Hall, a large 70-room castle-like home in the Norman style, on Dufferin Street In King Township, was built by Lady Eaton during 1938/1939.   It sat on a 700-acre parcel of land, with its its own lake, and in 2025 it has been owned for several years by Seneca College.   Today, Eaton Hall is used as an event venue, by the college.
