My Monday Sept 21, 2009 telephone chat with Sharon Craik Mitchell Of Blue Sea QC and South Mountain Ont. will follow here shortly.

Sharon Craik Mitchell - Summer of 2009 - Blue Sea Lake, QC with her friend and with Niles, her new sidekick! Sharon is the daughter of Grace Chugg Craik O'Brien and the granddaughter of Earl Minto Chugg. She is also the great granddaughter of John Chugg. We found her thanks to her son John Mitchell after 5 years of searching. John responded to my message left on the Blue Sea Lake website.
Sharon lives on the east side of Blue Sea Lake. She lives in a property adjacent to John Mitchell's Chugg cottage. Contact Michael Chugg -wiki host- for the address. She has no mailbox, so won't get mail until she is in South Mountain Ontario in the winter. My conversation with Sharon will be found below the pictures. Her words tell many of the unknown detasils of others' lives including significant interactions with teh "Western Chuggs".
