• Notes

  The marriage was held in Knox United Church, Calgary with Stan and Mabel Bowers as witnesses. Info from conversation with WCD aprox. 1972: WCD went to Earl Grey, Sask. in 1911 to work for people from St. Elmo at $20 month and $5 month during the winter. He got a homestead in 1913 and moved the family out in 1914 to Tompkins, Sask (east of Maple Creek) It was very dry and he had crop failures to 1920. He went to work for the Ogilvy Flour Mill at Craddock, Alberta. In 1921 he became a buyer for Ogilvy at Hatton Sask. to 1924 then to Taber to 1926. Then he went to Jasper to work for the CNR to retirement in 1960. His brother Gerald went to Edson in 21 or 22 and to Jasper in 23. Eric and mother left the homestead in 1923 for Jasper. WCD notes date unkown: was late in enlisting and was told to go home and grow. got out because of rhematic fever, a medical discharge and end of war.
