Greetings to all…
My name is Mark Williams and I am the youngest of three grandchildren of Samuel Burry who was born on Newell’s Island on August 8th, 1903.
He departed his home for the bright lights of Niagara Falls, NY sometime in the early 1920’s as I know he began employment with a company known as Autolite in 1924 which, I believe, he spent his entire career.
My mother, Audrey Mae Burry, was born in 1934 and was the first of four children being Don, Ray and Jean but I don’t known in which order and all where of Niagara Falls.
Sadly, my mother lost her life to ovarian cancer a week before my 5th birthday and that is where my story ends as we were systematically excluded from my mother’s family ostensibly from my father’s (Eugene Williams) legendary bad temper and often foul mouth – especially in 1966!
My grandfather passed away in 1973: I recall being asked if I wanted to attend the funeral but my ten-year old mentality shied me away from such an event.
I vividly recall waiting for my older brother to pick me up after school waiting at my grandparents home and I often wonder if he missed my daily visits.
I wish I had had an opportunity to ask him about his home on Newell’s Island and to discover what prompted him to depart his family’s home.
