looking for J. brownlee's descendents, gravenhurst, ontario

j. brownlee was a principal at gravenhurst high school in the 1970's and his ?parents (or ?parents-in-law) were "doll" and harold cornish...
i have a shoebox full of letters that "doll" sent to my mother, emily kay, a private duty nurse looking after doll's mother, mrs. brownlee, in london, ontario, dated 1970's...i found them amoungst my mothers' things after she passed away 4 years ago...
doll and harold travelled alot, as these letters and postcards are sent from hawaii, california, and florida...there is also a letter from "j. brownlee" of gravenhurst high school...
there must be some grandchildren or great grandchildren out there who would enjoy having these personal letters of their own family ancestors; i'd be more than happy to send them to you if you contact me...
i recall meeting doll and harold cornish (lovely, friendly people) at their cottage at oakwood inn, grand bend when i was a teenager in the 1970's, and i also remember mrs. brownlee, as being a sweet elderly lady that my mom looked after in st. mary's hospital, london...

p.s...there are numerous listings and fotos of other "brownlee's", in the book "euphemia township, 1849-1999", available from:
the dawn-euphemia township office,
RR#4,
dresden, ontario,
NOP 1M0...
this is in lampton co. (i think!), close to sarnia, from where other brownlee's have posted info.
