-Canadian Tire?
-I DO THINK THAT at one time was a factory of gloves wool or some thing
-You're right, it was a glove factory. My grandparents, Martin Cummins (salesman) and Mary King (sewing machine operator), both worked there at the turn of the last century, before they were married. The glove factory was owned by Thomas Arnold, great-uncle to my husband, Ian Flewelling. Ian's grandfather, brother to Thomas's wife, moved across country to Alberta. I didn't know until I met Ian's parents in 1981, that his ancestors on both sides of the family had lived in the Erin area before moving to Alberta to homestead.
