The owner of this glorious moustache is Mr.Rory William
Macleod of Skye, Ontario, pictured here with his wife, Margaret McCrimmon. Rory
William’s grandfather, Rodrick Macleod, owned Lot 10, Concession 9, of
Caledonia Township in 1835. He then passed it down to his son, Donald Rory
Macleod, who eventually gave it to his son- and the star of this post- Rory
William Macleod. Rory William was born
in 1872, had six children and eventually passed away in 1950.
This photograph was taken by Duncan Donovan in his Alexandria
studio. The Glengarry Pioneer Museum has a large collection of Donovan photos,
many of which are displayed in the temporary exhibit, “Portraits of the Past.”
