Hi Marlene.
My grandfather’s name was Frank. I think he was from Winnipeg but lived in Vancouver. My father’s name was Fred, his brother was Jim (probably James). I always had the impression that my family was from southern Ontario (after England) but can’t confirm that. Have you been to the Facebook page “My name is Vanstone but you probably don’t know me?” Our son did a a family tree in his last year of high school (14 years ago) and decided that some of our ancestors were pirates, a fact I personally am very proud of.

Hi Marilyn and Larry Vanstone,

I accidentally came across your website. My mother-in-law’s maiden name is Vanstone. It’s not a common name & I’m trying to do a family tree. I have sourced the name to come from England. Our grandparents were Ed&Lois Vanstone> his parents: Bert&Daisy Vanstone> his parents were from England but that’s all I know. Bert’s brothers were Sam & William. If perhaps you know any details that would be exciting. Just in case… thought I’d post. Our Grandpa Vanstone just passed away last year at 93 ~ we loved his character!!

The Europeans have such neat RV’s. Each one seems to be unique. Wonderful lifestyle.

Daniel I would recommend 50 Point Conservation area, right on Lake Ontario.
Bob I agree they hide them all. this summer I am going to work on seeing a few more. Contessa. There are no listings for waterfalls in Hamilton on our GPS.
George I think our day lacked the word “route”

I’ve been to Tew’s, Webster’s and Balls Falls, but that’s about it. Not sure if I’ll get around to the other 123. But those are in Dundas Does that count?
Whether or not, I haven’t a clue where Hamilton has managed to hide all those waterfalls, and I first set foot in Hamilton in 1967….

We have never been “lost”. Some times we don’t have clue where we are or where we are going, but just say we are taking the “scenic route” and enjoy the scenery. So just go and have fun exploring new places.

Thank you for this post, we have been on this road from Toronto to Niagara falls several times but did not realize that Hamilton area is so blessed with waterfalls.
So on our next trip we sure will be hiking to the favorite ones.
Can you recommend a central located C.G.
Thanks
