More CEF makers
A new Marway catalogue, so a few more names to add (possibly) to the CEF list.
Re the Crighton/Creighton question, there are a couple of E210 Moose Jaw badges that are described as marked "Creigton's". Maybe no one at that shop could spell or knew who they worked for, or maybe a typo on the catalogue, as there is an E229 badge described as marked "Creighton's", but I'll send Marway's a note asking for sure.
The following, though, I think are new names:
E59a Brockville marked "SAR & D'BSTERRY. KINGS/1915"
E146 Frontenac marked "KINNEAR D'ESTEN" (?)
E163 Montreal marked "E.V. LAMONTAGENE LIMITED"
As for naming varieties, we get "JACKSON BROS, CENTRAL ALBERTA CANADA" on an E151 Alberta (must be one honking huge badge or very, very small type).
Finally, a favourite if only because I have one, the 1909-1911 pattern Strathcona's Horse Royal Canadian (no "Lord"), maker marked "Caron Bros 1916" (mine actually looks like "CAR & Bros 1916"). An obsolete pattern made and issued in WW1 and, if my guess is correct, worn in WW2 where it was traded to a British soldier in North Africa in 1943.
