J. Brian Gilchrist R.I.P.
Obituary published in the Toronto Star on May 3, 2014
When you search for ancestors, you find great friends. At
Brampton Civic Hospital on May 1, 2014, John Brian Gilchrist, beloved and only
son of Audrey Long (Toronto) and the late John "Jack" Gilchrist
(Calgary). Brian, a proud 4th generation Torontonian, and 9th generation
Canadian of English, Irish, Scottish, German, and American descent, was born
April 7, 1956 in Toronto

A lifelong interest in genealogy and local history led Brian to a host of
friends in genealogical and archival circles. Most recently he was the
reference archivist at the Peel
Art Gallery
Museum and Archives

published a definitive genealogy entitled The "Clan" McClure: Historical
Highlights. Compiler and editor of Inventory of Ontario Newspapers 1793-1986,
Brian also wrote many genealogical articles, and contributed to numerous radio
and television programs on genealogical topics. His speeches were full of
information and humour-with an unmatched style of delivery that drew crowds.
Brian will be missed by many relatives, friends, and colleagues. In April,
Brian entered hospital for the last time, after a series of illnesses...
"then he slept with his ancestors." Hebrew, 1 Kings 14:20. Friends
may call at the Turner & Porter Yorke Chapel, 2357 Bloor St. W., Toronto,
at Windermere Ave., east of Jane subway, Sunday from 2-4 and 6-8 p.m. Funeral
