4 "John was only two when his father died. He would have learned early to work hard. When he was about 16/17 he went to New York to work for a florist one spring. When he was about 18 he went west on a harvest excursion to Manitoba. He stayed that winter to help the farmer he had worked for cut and skid logs. In the spring he filed for a homestead but when fall came he could not face another winter in Manitoba. He then went to Vancouver and worked taring the roof of the BC Sugar Refinery. After this he went to work hauling supplies to a lumber camp on Bowen Island with a barge and oxen. He then heard that his brother Ken was in the boundary country of BC and went to Greenwood to join him. They then went to Westbridge and built a stopping house. He met Grandmother at Rock Creek and they lived at the stopping house for a couple of years. They bought a farm on the Kettle River and spent a year clearing land. An irrigation company bought it from them the following year. John spent some time doing other jobs including a summer at Stewart Lake building a fish hatchery for the government. They then mover to Alberta where they farmed for the next 43 years."

28 Augusta is the only name not consistant with information given by Father and Uncle Harold and the census records. Therefore I believe that she is the one who was actually called Emma and married to Mr. Carson.
Found in King's County Record August 19 1904:
Mrs. Carson and the children have returned to Boston on Friday after attending the funeral of her father Mr. Wm. Lister.
The name is confirmed by her great granddaughter Gina Gaddis.

Death certificate - obtained 26 June 2002
- cause of death, Hypertensis, myocardial degeneration
- informant = William B Carson, husband
- father - William Lister, birthplace = England
- mother - Edna Saunders, birthplace = Gondola Point

Dec 2013
Massachusetts Vital Records, 1841-1910, Marriage - 1896 Boston MA vol 462 page 184 line 3300. William E Carson, 24, a teamster of Boston, and Emma A Lister, 21, a housekeeper of Boston, were married in Boston on Wednesday, 22 July 1896 by the Rev Samuel E Howe, Minister of the Gospel, Boston. This was his second and her first marriage. William was born in Salt Springs, New Brunswick, Canada to William and Susan Carson. Emma was born in Norridgewock, New Brunswick to William B and Edna L Lister.

Compiler's note: Of the many official Massachusetts vital records regarding this couple the spelling of her maiden name was always Lister. 
Lester, Emma Augusta (I73)
 
29 Barbara was a nurse who worked in the Greenwood BC hospital in the late 1890's.

Baxter, Jane Augusta (I11)
 
43 Charles Jacob Wood was born Tuesday, 5 April 1859 in St John County, New Brunswick, the seventh child of Charles Henry Wood and Esther Knight. He had eight brothers and two sisters. The earliest record of him is the 1861 Census of Upham Parish, Kings County. His father was a shoemaker and he and four of his brothers also became shoemakers.
By 1871 when Charles was 13, the Census Schedules 4 and 5 showed his father having the following - 1 (one) acre of land, which produced 1 bushel each peas, beans, and corn, and 50 bushels potatoes. He had one horse, 1 milch cow and produced 100 lbs. of butter. From this information one could conclude that they lived in a small village and income was derived from sources other than farming.

Family Story has it that after the four sons became shoemakers, all the shoemakers quarreled so they all set up separate shops. By 1881 many of the family are living on their own. Charles, (calling himself Jacob frequently for the rest of his life, presumably to distinguish himself from his father) is living with his brother Peter and sister Harriet (Hattie) in a separate residence.

Charles married Jane Augusta Baxter, daughter of John Baxter and Amanda E Blakeney on Monday 28 Nov 1881 in Saint John, New Brunswick. They had ten children – three sons and seven daughters. Charles’ wife Jennie died in 1908 of consumption. At the time that Charles wife died they had young children. His neighbour, Elizabeth Blatchford, who had lost her husband, also had young children. They decided to marry and by the 1911 Census were living at #10 Short Street St. John with 5 young ladies, Ethel Blatchford age 19, Alice Blatchford age 17, Fannie Blatchford age 15, Hazel Blatchford age 13 and Kathleen Wood age 12. Charles made the wedding shoes for his son-in-law to be Humphrey Lester, when his daughter Harriett married in 1902. Humphrey had the audacity to complain that the shoes leaked when he stood in a puddle. ( family story from R.G.L.)

Charles died at 3:15 AM Sunday, 28 Jan 1923. He was 59 years old. The cause of death was listed as Myocarditis which he had had for six years. He is buried in the Wesleyan Methodist Burial Ground, Saint. John. He does not have a headstone.
