Excerpt from Campaign Echoes: The Autobiography of Mrs. Letitia Youmans, the Pioneer of the White Ribbon Movement in Canada; Written by Request of the Provincial Woman's Christian Temperance Union of Ontario

My parentage consisted of a wonderful combination of nationalities: my father, a genuine son of the Emerald Isle; my mother, a native-born citizen of the United States; her father a Frenchman from Paris, and her mother a native of Holland.

My father spent most of his childhood and youth in the city of Dublin, and consequently enjoyed more privileges of education than most Irish boys of his age. He was a good penman, quick at figures.
