Thank you.  I feel like I've found a couple more pieces of the puzzle!

Hi, just wanted to confirm whether the Grand Junction is still there.  I guess I "assumed" that was the case, but thought I should ask people that will know the answer.

Thanks.

Hi, do you have any pics by any chance?  I wonder if anyone has the history of it?  As far as I know my gggrandfather, Samuel Skaife Grange, and wife, Jane Skaife Grange, and his son, Edwin Grange, and Edwin's brother in law, Joseph Skaife, oh and I forgot Jane's sister Mary Skaife and her husband, Charles Mager, ran it or were involved in some way from 1861 census thru 1911 census.  Edwin died a few years later so don't know who had it then and I guess I don't know how to find that out.

Thanks for the info.  I would love to come over and see some of the places my ancestors were!
