     Continuing up the Blueshank past the Floyd Caseley home we see, on 
     
     the north side of the road, the large new home which Gerald and Lois 
     
     Caseley built, bordered by its rows of promising young pine trees. Gerald is 
     
     the son of Floyd and Georgie Caseley, and he married Lois Alice Bryanton 
     
     (March 28, 1936) daughter of Melville and Hilda (Morrison) Bryanton of 
     
     Malpeque. Gerald and Lois lived in the former Agnew house for a short 
     
     time and in 1957 built a new ranch-style house on that property, which was 
     
     enlarged, making a split-level house, in 1963. (See Rural Beautification 
     
     Contest Winners). In 1971 the house and lot were sold to Bernard Hard- 
     
     wick, and Lois and Gerald lived in a mobile home on the south side of the 
     
     Blueshank. They then built their present home. Gerald farmed until 1973 
     
     and then established Island Foam Insulation Limited. He sold this business 
     
     to John Morrison of Charlottetown in May, 1978. Gerald and Lois had a 
     
     family of four daughters: 
     
    
   
   
    
     Barbara Ann (May 22, 1957) married Brian McLean. (See McLean).
