History

"The tools belonged to my grandparents. I cannot give you the name. Mr. Miron (donor) used to come to the house and cut my children's hair. He worked at Ford's with my husband and was a friend of his. We gave him the tools. He died about a year ago. I do not know what the mark Geo. M. on the tools means." - T. Laliberte, 1555 Windemere Rd. Windsor. Tools were given to the museum by Mr. Miron Nov. 31, 1967. Information provided from a phone conversation with Mrs. Laliberte and D. Francois on January 13, 1971 regarding the woodworking tools and pipe threader.
