Mr. and Mrs. Goodwin R. Harris

Toronto Daily Star, October 29 1934

The 1935 Toronto city directory lists Goodwin R. Harris as a partner of the stock brokerage firm of Seagram, Harris, and Bricker. The young couple were living at 498 St. Clair Avenue East. By 1940, he was listed at 220 Strathallan Boulevard in North York, which is where he spent the rest of his life. By 1945, Harris had established his own firm, Goodwin Harris & Company.

Sadly, it appears as though the Harrises did not get to enjoy many years of happily wedded bliss. The 1951 directory lists Goodwin R. Harris at 220 Strathallan Wood, but the 1952 directory does not list him, and the 1953 directory lists his widow, Mary M., at that address. The first directory in which I found a listing for him was 1925, so it's not as if he married late in life.

George Ian MacLean, Harris's father-in-law, has a Wikipedia entry. He was the gold commissioner of the Yukon from 1928 to 1932. He passed away in 1939.
