Shunk Family Website!

This is also an excellent website, created by Lorne Shunk. Although the Schunk name is not related to the Devins (see first post), he has so many names in his database. I would bookmark this site. Click Here!

Greatrex Family Website!

My mom's cousin (Terry) created a Greatrex History Website. There is also other families listed, including a Devins database. Thus, I would definitely bookmark this website. Click Here!

My Family Introduction!

Hi my name is Lorne Bell. My great grandmother was Annie Elizabeth Devins. She married Christopher Greatrex. They had eight children: Muriel Blanche (my grandmother), Irene, Verda, Audrey Frances, Madelaine, Ken, William, and Earl Greatrex. On October 20th, 1924 Muriel married Merle Emerson Schunk (in Toronto). They moved to Wasaga Beach during the depression, and started a Bakery business. On January 11, 1940 my mother, Suzanne was born in Wasaga Beach. She married James Lorne Bell on May 15, 1965. They had two children: Frances Marie and Lorne Ross.
