Hello, I am a descendant of David Cantelon of Clinton, Ontario. His daughter, Pearl Cantelon (married Andrew Weatherwax of Orillia ) was my Grandmother , and my great Aunt, Dorothy Cantelon also lived in that grand house in Clinton. I have a picture of that house, and the Ballyheigh coat of arms with the motto ” Fortis in Bello.” Sadly many of Pearl’s brothers passed away in the First World War. My Mom, Katherine (Kae) Weatherwax (Pearl Cantelon’s daughter) just passed away in December 2014 at the age of 97. Best wishes, Marilyn Lake Lee
