George Bond was born 31 Oct 1838 in Beckwith Township and died 18 Feb 1939 in Lanark. He was a brother to my great grandfather Joseph H. Bond of Lanark.

The photo and golden wedding anniversary announcement were provided to me by William E. Bennett of Carleton Place when I was there (11 August, 1998). My cousin, Irma Willoughby, who we had gone there to see, gave us (my sister Sharon & I) a guided tour of Carleton Place. It was a personal thrill for myself & my sister to see the area and walk where our ancestors resided. We are already planning a trip back next summer and plan on staying longer. My wife is even planning on being with me this time, especially after I described the area. I'm even hoping it will be when the LCGS holds its monthly meeting. I'm anxious to meet my fellow members.
