Also James---If/when you come over here, if you visit the village of Westerham in Kent, you'll find a big statue of General Wolfe, as that's the village he came from.

Hello and welcome to the site.

I presume you mean Kitchener, Ontario? I lived around that area for a while way back in '80, '81, bug Mennonite country back then, is it still?

Sue,

I tke it tht mennonite is a mineral, but what is it, what does it look like, and what is it used for.

I probably should have asked Dr D, but he would not have a clue...he probably could not even spell it!.

Mennonites are a religious sect liken to the Amish. In fact it might have been a big Amish community near Kitchener that I remember. I't going back 28 years now and my memory is getting bad.
