MERCHANT: Charles, Rose, Susan, John
I have a copy of a page in the 1900 Polk & Co. Directory for Sault Ste Marie that lists Charles and Rose MERCHANT. A Susan MERCHANT boards at the same Maple Street address, probably their daughter.A 1911 entry has Rose MERCHANT (widow Charles), and living with her on Magazine Street are what I would guess to be her children: John MERCHANT, fireman, and Sarah MERCHANT, domestic.The next year I have is 1917-18, and John MERCHANT, craneman, is married to a Minnie.
I am looking for someone who knows who these MERCHANTs are! I don't know if they connect to my MERCHANT line. (My 2nd great grandmother's maiden name was MERCHANT, and she lived in the Sault from abt. 1890 to 1924, except for a few years between 1901 and 1911 in Washington state).
Any clues appreciated!
