General note

Wilhemina Beekmans was born in the Netherlands and was twelve years old when the Germans invaded. She also lived in a district first to be liberated in 1944 and in 1945 she met Clarence Johnston, a member of the Canadian contingency stationed there. Because Wilhelmina was under-age, Clarence volunteered to stay with the Allied Army another year and they were married in April, 1946. A week later, Clarence was on his way back to Canada and his new eighteen year-old wife would follow in October. They tried farming near Calais but eventually moved to Grande Prairie where Clarence eventually established Johnson's Homes & Trusses.
