Little Forks and Athol are the same place. The name was changed in 1871 in
honour of John Murray, 4th Duke of Athol, Scotland.
(notes from Carrie (Baker) Brown) 1966) The local folk still identify with
Little Forks and we have postcards from 1908-10 addressed to Little Forks,
from family in Parrsboro area.
Larry and Ruby
>Little Forks - with a
marriage date of Jun 1862. The next birth in this family, that is listed,
Sanford Gilroy, b. 7 Oct 1872 in Athol, lists the day of the marriage as
the
5th in Jun 1862, but the place as Athol. I know, real close to each other,
but
two seperate places.
