   Percy Walker Nellis, was related to me through my dad's mother.I believe he   
   entered the navy in about 1910, was very instrumental in getting Canada to   
   grow to having the third largest navy in the world, by WWII's end. He was from   
   Brantford, but the    
   Nellis name comes from Nellis Corners, near Hagersville, and around YORK.
