Notes
John and William Brant are the sons of Theodore Jack Brant (1905-1987) and Ruth Gladys Spall Brant (1909-1973). Theodore and Ruth had one daughter, Elizabeth Ruth.

Marjorie Georgina Ruddy (1908-1980) was a prominent Whitby photographer and the only commercial photographer in Whitby during the 1930s and 1940s. Marjorie was the official photographer for the Whitby Police Department starting in the 1930s and as a result took many photographs of car accidents, fingerprints and crime scenes. (Station Gallery.
