    • 20171208:
      From information in a document supplied by Eleanor Chopp

      John Smiley was born John Shmigelski. The family name was changed to Smiley in August 1940. This included wife Elizabeth and Theodore (Ted) and Eleanore.

      John lived on the farm in Komarno until about 1922. He moved to Winnipeg and lived with his sister Stefania and her husband Fred at 488 Bowman Ave.

      He married Elizabeth Balamutowska in 1928. He was working as a laborer.

      The Henderson Directories showed these occupations:
      1928 laborer
      1930 packer at cement plant
      1936 truck driver for Wilkes Coal and Cartage
      1939 packer at cement plant
      1941 repairman at cement plant
      1945-1947 carpenter for North American Lumber
      1949 self-employed contractor
      1951 built the building and then opened Smiley's Grill 85 Gertie St.
      1958/59 owned and operated Smiley's Lunch at 355 McDermot Ave.

      Around 1960 it was discovered that John had an inoperable tumor. He had surgery and they found the tumor was growing around a blood vessel to his heart. He had radiation but the cancer spread to his lymph nodes and he died a year later.
