My father's family was from Iona and he shared his love of Iona with his family.
He was very involved in Highland Village, as long as his health allowed,  he built a number of swings, selling tickets with the proceeds going to the Highland Village, a labor of love.
I am enjoying this site and want to share one of my treasured photo's with viewers.
I am attaching a school photo (Iona around 1923) I am guessing.  In the photo are my dad (John P.) and one brother and two sisters, they are:Alex P MacNeil's 
 
Front row 2nd from right Cecelia MacNeil (Gordon)
Second row  1st (plaid dress) Alice MacNeil (Cox)
Second row from left    Malcolm MacNeil
Third row ( Black sweater)   John Peter MacNeil
The teacher maiden name unknown but she married T.W. Currie (Sydney) .  I believe the third boy from the left is Danny (Michael D.) MacNeil . 
Can anyone identify any others???
Looking forward to many more interesting photo's and information.
