    According to some sources Barry was the son of Floyd Milo Archambault III and Eltha Laurian Hubbard. I’m not sure where the name Barry Scott comes from.

    Jason’s maternal grandmother was Elaine Joy Drynan (the daughter of Walter Highley Drynan and Edna Elaine Robinson, born Audrey Elaine Bradford). Elaine was born in Toronto, Ontario. Walter was the son of Thomas Robert Drynan and Rebecca Elizabeth Highley. Edna was the biological daughter of James Percival/Percy Bradford and Loretta Merrill Neving.
