ON 80TH. BIRTHDAY
Friends, Neighbors Honored Percy
Goulais River - Friends and neighbors along
with his family, extended greetings to Percy
Young who was observing his 80th. birthday.
The event was marked by a come and go
evening held at Mr. Young's home last week.
This very active oldster has spent most of
his life in Goulais and is still farming,
although he has given up planting entire
fields of potatoes as he used to do,
conceding they are a bit too much work.
Born in Sault Ste. Marie on June 22, 1892,
Percy was the first born to William and Emma
Young, a young couple who had moved north
from the Muskoka area. While still an infant,
Percy's family bought land in Goulais and a
home was built on what is now Colin Young's
farm.
