These items were given to Hugh and Jackie Cook from Pat Houghton, the granddaughter of Estelle Barker. Ms. Hougton inherited these materials from her grandmother upon her passing and organized the materials before sending them to the Archives. Ms. Barker was a longtime resident of Vaughan and an avid historian who collected materials primarily relating to Woodbridge.
