Individual Notes
• John Barron was but an infant when brought by his parents to Canada, since which time he has made this country his home. While residing at St. Mary’s, he received a very liberal education not only in his literary studies, but also in music, he making a specialty of the violin. When he had attained to sufficient years, Mr. Barron commenced his business life as a cooper, following that trade for ten years. At that time he removed to Sarnia, and from 1866 to 1898, he was one of the leading photographers in the city, being very successful.1008, p 779

• In all relations of life Mr. Barron and his family have worthily borne their part, and none in Sarnia stand higher in the estimation of the community.1008, p 780
