- From Anne and Lawrence Cullen:
Lewellyn, known as Lew, was the first born of Lucy and Barney Cullen. Lew grew up in Ottawa, went to Ottawa High School and completed Grade 12. During grade school he took piano lessons and continued throughout high school and became an excellent player of popular music.
A restless, handsome man, Lew left home at age 18 and worked as time-keeper with a CPR Section Gang on the North Shore Line (Hull to Lachute, Quebec). He then went to the Magnesite Mines as time-keeper. He then worked for The Foundation Company of Canada in New Brunswick as an engineer and later in Cornwall, Ontario at the construction of a silk mill. It was in Cornwall he met Vivien Connolly . In 1932, he joined the Ottawa Police Force and, except for war service with the RCAF, was a policeman until 1953.
In 1932, Lew married Vivien, the eighth child of Cholestic Girouard, a teacher, and John Connolly, a blacksmith, from North Bay. They had three children - Bernard, Anne and Trevor. Vivien died in 1950. The family had been living on Noel Street in New Edinburgh in the house previously occupied by Lew's parents.
In 1953, Lew married Geraldine Ireland and later the family moved to West Lorne near London, Ontario. He worked at Ontario Hydro. They had one son, Alan. Lew died in February, 1986 and Geraldine died in February, 1987.
