History
Bernard, a grandson of Sir William Dawson, was his father’s namesake, and the third of the Harrington sons. “Barney” grew up in Montreal with his eight siblings in the Harrington family home adjacent to the campus of McGill University, where his father taught and his grandfather was principal. As a young man, he went west and met Ethel Mary Jamieson, born in Northumberland, England, and who had immigrated to Canada in 1911. They were married in Vernon, B.C. in 1914. They moved to Salmon Arm. B.C. and had four children: Bernard (Billy) Lee, Clare Olive, Lois May and David Dawson. Bernard died in Victoria, B.C.
