- History
- Santokh Gill emigrated to Canada in the mid 1960s and settled in Burnaby. Santokh travelled to England to marry his future wife Mohinder, as he had family in England and Mohinder's sister lived there. Upon arriving in England, they went straight to the temple for the wedding and then the next day, Santokh returned to Canada because he had to return to work at A1 Steel at 1775 Clark Drive in Vancouver (at 2nd Avenue). Mohinder stayed in England for two weeks with Santokh's family until her visa expired and then travelled to Burnaby to join her husband. This photo was taken as a newlywed photo after arriving back in Canada at a studio on 4649 Georgia Street, Burnaby.
