• Notes

  Laura Essie Wilson was a 25-yr-old teacher when she married 38-yr-old William Allan Scott of Pakenham Tp, Lanark Co. She was the daughter of Thomas Young Wilson and his wife Mary Wesley Lowrie of Fitzroy Tp, Carleton, Co., Ont. Their only two sons were killed tragically in WW2:- F.Sgt. (Flight Engineer) Donald Stewart Scott was lost at sea in the area of the Faroe Islands when the Canso aircraft he was in was shot down by a German U-boat and the 8-man crew had to share the only surviving 4-man inflatable raft for over 20 hours. Donald died during the ordeal several hours before the survivors were rescued. The younger son, Kenneth, was a Leading Aircraftsman acting as a dropper on board a Dakota transport which was taking supplies to the British Army in Burma 12 January 1945. It was shot down by a Japanese fighter and Kenneth's final resting place is in the Taukkyan War Cemetery in Myanmar (Burma).
