Biographical history
Jonas Margis, born Vytautas Jonas Margevicius in 1921 in Lithuania and died in 2009 in Mississauga, Canada. He emigrated from Lithuania to Canada with his mother and brother in 1928, following his father who had emigrated to Canada in 1926. They settled in Toronto and shortened the family name to Margis. Margis completed his studies to become a pharmacist and for many years owned a drugstore, patronized by many Toronto Lithuanians, in the High Park area.
