I never knew how dense the area was. Born in 1946, I lived at 60 Edmund St until we moved to Westminster Cres. in 1954. I wonder if there is a present day photo of this area to show how it has changed.

Hi Bill,
I also had some Scottish relative. Joe McDougal and 24 yr old wife Mary Campbell Dunn were at 24 Edmund St 1901.He'd came down from the Glasgow area to work on a new dry Dock being excavated.
Here is a modern day view, roughly showing that area.
Edmund & a lot of other streets have been replaced with trees & grass.I have added Yellow letters just like on the old view.
