Hello and thank you for hosting this group. I'm enjoying reading the
entries about your ancestors. My ancestors were two brothers from the
Island of Flores. The story goes that they changed their last name to
Norton because a Captain on a ship "adopted them" or at least took
care of them while sailing to America or the British Columbia Gulf
Islands. According to the story they were 12 or 13 years-old at the
time. John Norton was known to be one of the first settlers on Salt
Spring Island in 1859. Some records list or mention a possible last
name being Dalrvero. Delarvo- something like that.  Signing out.
Melanie Kay.
