Albert was born in Kelvin, Ontario on December 20, 1896. He came to the South Peace with his parents in 1909 and eventually filed on homesteads of his own at 25-71-10-W6 and 4-72-10-W6. Because he was drafted so near the end of the war, Albert served only in England. He married Euphemia Kinnear Hope on September 21, 1934. Albert died in November of 1967.
