Biographical history
The family of Walter Nichol Davidson resided in Brighton, Ontario. Walter Davidson (d. 1936) was a merchant-tailor. He married Isabella Massie D. McDonald (d. 1946). They had two daughters: Annie Helen (b. 1878) and Jessie Isabella. Annie was a school teacher and she took correspondence courses through the University of Toronto Extension Branch. She married a dentist by the last name of Harnden. This Davidson family may be related to the Davidson family (77-003) of Cobourg, Ontario. One letter in the 86-015 fonds is addressed to a W.N. Davidson and speaks of a "Lizzie", perhaps Elizabeth, and a "Jim", perhaps James.
