Sport Center Saturday - BCS and the Smiths

My grandfather, George Washington Smith, and at least two of his brothers attended Bishops College School in Lenoxville, Quebec as teenagers.

My grandfather's time there overlapped with his brother, Herbert Austin's, and because of his love of photography, we have a lovely collection of snapshots of both BCS and its sister school King's Hall Compton, where their sister Frances Ruth was a student.

Here are just a few, and I definitely recommend clicking on them for a more detailed view.

    Welcome to the GeneaBloggers family. Hope you find the association fruitful; I sure do. I have found it most stimulating, especially some of the Daily Themes.

    May you keep sharing your ancestor stories!
