NotesAccording to his descendant, Hilary S.:

Henry George Giles went to Canada as a homechild, promising to return when his younger brother Albert was old enough to leave the orphanage. Poor Albert waited and waited and apart from a postcard sent after Henry (known as George) arrived at Forresters Falls, Renfrew - nothing. Albert spent his life trying to find his older brother without success.
