True Family

The True Family lived for many generations in Wiltshire County, England, until one of their ilk, one Henry True (1839-1910), decided to take his wife Ann White and move about 150 kilometres west to Maesteg, Wales. They had three sons and four daughters.

Legacy

One of those daughters, Bessie True (1872 - 1933), married a David Luther John Griffiths (1872 - 1942) and had David Reese Griffiths (1913 - 1988), who was the father of noted family genealogist Dan Griffiths.

Another of those daughters, Rose True (1884 - 1961), was romanced by an enterprising young gentleman called John Cooke (1878-1950), who convinced her to make her way over to the Dominion of Canada [1]. They settled in Manitoba and had four daughters and one son. One of those daughters, Edith Lucy Cooke (1915 - 2003) married a salesman called Jack Currie (1915 - 2009) and moved with him to Thunder Bay, Ontario and had three sons. The youngest of these sons was Ron Currie (1947 -), the father of Michael Currie.
