    I am sure there are a lot of people that would not know this about Canada but I am part of a family that has known that for many years. I am also proud to say that I am a descendent of Captain Wilson Kettle. He lived in Grand Bay, Port Aux Basques, NL The most living descendants record is in the 1964 or 65 edition of the Guiness Book of World Records.
