=== (1900 - 1939) ===
Ernest Hayes Almas (called Ernie) was the son of [[Newman James Almas]] (b. abt 1866) and [[Mary Jane Lambshead]] (b. 21 March, 1869).

He married [[Ellen May King]] who was born at #26 Lordship Road, Cheshunt, Herts, England, 27 January, 1903; christened at St. Mary's, Cheshunt.

Ellen was the daughter of [[Frank King]] and [[Lilian Maria Austin]] and she came to Canada, with her family, in 1907.

Ernest was a market gardener on Graham's Lane, president of the area fruit and vegetable growers association, and very innovative in his methods. He built and owned the first privately-owned cold storage in Canada for the purposes of preserving his fruit and vegetables before taking them to market (usually to Hamilton Market). He had received his land - part of the old Stevenson farm from his father Newman James Almas when he married. It was James practice to give each of his sons some land at the time of their marriage.

# [[Mary Lilian Almas]] - born Burlington, ON
# James Austin Almas - 1927, Burlington, ON - died 1943 at Graham's Lane Farm, Burlington, ON
