John Queen
John Queen (February 11, 1882〔 in Lanarkshire, Scotland〔 – July 15, 1946〔) was a Manitoba politician, and the second parliamentary leader of that province's Independent Labour Party. He also served as the 33rd Mayor of Winnipeg on two occasions.
==Background==
Queen was the son of John Queen and Jane Todd, both natives of Scotland. A cooper by trade, he arrived in Canada in 1906 with his younger brother William, moving into a rooming house at 259 Dorothy St., a stone's throw from the massive Canadian Pacific Railway yards where many working-class Scottish and English immigrants were then employed.〔See (Census of the Prairie Provinces, 1906 ), for Winnipeg Sub-district 5D, p. 71, lines 11-12.〕 He operated a horse-drawn delivery wagon for a laundry.〔 On June 25, 1908,〔See (Manitoba Vital Statistics ) website.〕 Queen married Katherine Ross, who had herself emigrated from Scotland in 1907.
By 1911 the family, which by then included a son John and a daughter Gloria (later Gloria Queen-Hughes, a prominent feminist and mayoral candidate), were living in the working-class neighbourhood of Weston.〔See (Census of Canada, 1911 ), for Winnipeg Enumeration District 69, p. 31, lines 41-45.〕
