pp: 207 D. SIGNED (TWICE) FIRST EDITION. Signed by the author on the introduction page. The book is essentially a personal history of the community. The author has many relatives and ancestors from the area, and their stories are included. Wexford has now grown substantially, and in no way does it resemble the pioneer farming community it once was. It has long ago been subsumed by the burgeoning city of Scarborough. But once, the area bounded roughly by Lawrence Avenue East, Ellesmere Road, and Warden Avenue was farming land. The history deals mostly with the pioneer families and their descendants, and the churches and schools that were established. Laid in is a letter typed by the author, to which she has added some handwritten notes. In the letter she talks about the purpose of the book. It is signed by her. This is a near fine copy.
