This photo was featured in the March 30, 2020 edition of the Canadian Mennonite, asking for help identifying the women in the photo. Dave Bukholder of Stouffville, ON has identified the adult women as Meyer sisters, "sisters of my paternal grandmother Emma (Meyer) Burkholder. (Mrs. L.J. Burkholder." left to right, Eva Williamson (Meyer) married to Orm Williamson who farmed in the Pamburn, SK area. Mary Strong (Meyer) who lived in the Gravenhurst, ON area. Sarah Gamble (Meyer) married to Glen Gamble who worked with the Bible School in Pamburn. Dave speculates that in the early 1930s the Williamsons returned to Ontario.
