| 7 | 1871 Ontario Census Record: COLEMAN , GEORGE Sex: Male Age: 29 Birthplace: ONTARIO Religion: I. Meth. E. Origin: ENGLISH Occupation: L/SERVANT District: WENTWORTH NORTH ( 023 ) Sub-district: Beverley ( A ) Division: 2 Page: 66 Microfilm reel: C-9924 Reference: RG31 - Statistics Canada George and other family members gave their racial origin as German in the 1881 and 1901 census. George's son Alven gives Dutch as his ethnic origin on his death certificate. Alven also gives George's father's (Daniel) place of birth as Pennsylvania. I list Daniel as born in Canada as I believe this to be correct. Not only was George born in Canada, George's father Dan was born in Canada. I suspect that Alven may have been giving the ethnic background as he saw it, Pennsylvania Dutch,and Pennsylvania was written down by the doctor as the place of birth. George's death registration number is 032622-22. George Coleman is in Beverly Township at the time of the 1861 census and was enumerated twice, once at home and once at work. At the time of the 1881 census he is married, all his children are present, and the family is living in South Dumfries. He works at a mill. In the 1891census, he is still at South Dumfries and is shown as a laborer. Theyare two families away from the Waughs. The Waughs ran a grocery storein St. George, so I'm assuming that the family was in St. George. Franklin Waugh is 25 at the time of the 1891 census and he later married Clara Coleman. Since grandfather Alven married grandmother in 1895 andsince they likely didn't meet until the family came to Galt, it wouldseem that they likely moved to Galt from St. George between 1891 and 1894. They are in Galt for the 1901 census. | Coleman, George W. (I338)

| 11 | According to Ethel Ward, Bradley was killed at age 5 by a drunk driver. Alberta Perkins (nee Smith) on December 18, 1998, mentioned that he was crossing the street with the crossing guard, and a young man came speeding over the hill in his car, and struck Bradley (the guard was not injured). Then he stopped, got out of his car to see what he did, and got back into his car, and drove off. The Hamilton Spectator will have a large article on this, which I will try to get ahold of for these records. | Good, Bradley Allan (I58)

| 17 | As I recall the story, George at one time had his own textile mill at Paris. At some point the family moved to Indiana. I can recall their daughter Gladys visiting with grandmother and Aunt Vera. Gladys brought a nephew and niece with her that trip, Stephen and Trish, and I believe that they were Roy's children. I've found George and Ida in Fort Wayne City, Indiana, in the 1930 U.S. census. He is 72 and she 59. They have lodgers, but none of the lodgers appear to be a family connection. He is said to be a foreman in a hosiery mill. Agewise, Ida's age as stated is close to correct. They likely died in Fort Wayne. In the 1920 census, her age is written illegibly, but 49 would be right. He is said to be 62 and foreman in a knitting mill. Two of their children are with them: Gladys A. and Earl G. She is said to be 20 and he 25. She is a stenographer in a ? store and he is a machinist in a knitting mill. In 1930 he is a lodger in South Bend City, St. Joseph Co., Portage Twp. and a machinist in a hosiery mill. No evidence there of a family. I've found no sign of Roy so far. Ida's Ontario birth registration number is 014051-70 Ida was residing in Paris, Ontario, with her sister Villa, at the time of the 1891 census, taken April 6. She was said to be 20 and Villa 17. They wer apparently boarding with a Catherine Crawford. a widow. See D2. page 6, T-6326. | Coleman, Ida Manetta (I952)

| 18 | Asa's birth year is somewhat questionable. On his attestation papers he give the year as 1893, however since he is on the 1891 census in Troy, Beverly Twp. we may disregard this. He is said to be age 2 in 1891. Since he was born in December, 1888 seems to be the logical choice. According to the Commonwealth War Graves website and confirmed by family stories, there is no grave for Asa. His name is commemorated on the Canadian War Memorial at Vimy Ridge, Pas de Calais, France. The war graves information states that his military number was 772138 and that he was with the 1st Battalion Canadian Infantry, Western Ontario Regiment. Asa's body was never found. Phoebe received a telegram from the war office saying that he was missing. Asa's comrades, however, said there was no question that he was dead. A shell hit the trench and either he was buried or there was nothing left to pick up. | Dye, Asa (I1018)

| 25 | Burial: Woodland Cemetery Hamilton Hamilton Municipality Ontario, Canada Plot: Section 9, Lot 1042 Doug Smith: "I was there moments after the coroner left 141 Eastbourne and I don't know if I've ever shared this with you, it's a little morbid, and I'm not an investigator, but obvious signs tell a story. I can say pretty confidently that Evelyn (grandma) choked or coughed or drowned on a mouthfull of tea. Likely her heart gave out as she gagged. How that day went down was, Mom and I and maybe Ken met Uncle Doug and Don and Elanor at 141 after Don called Mom on Montcalm. Don had trouble reaching grandma for a couple days calling her. When he went to the house it was unlocked, and that's when he found her and called Doug and Mom. Mom and us drove to 141 and arrived just after the coroner left. I went up to her room, where they found her. Yes she died on the side of her bed, in her nightgown, smoking a cig and reading a book with her tea beside her. Her bedtime ritual like she always did. Except there was a fully burnt-to-the-filter cigarette in the ashtray, and a cup of tea on her dresser, and a puddle of tea in the middle of her bed. Looks to me like she did what she always did, but possibly the tea went down the wrong way so, smartly, she put her fresh lit smoke down and proceeded to cough. Her death could not have been sudden like the heart just stopped, or else the lit smoke would have burnt something, and her tea cup would have been dropped. Then it looked like she fell back on the bed. That's really what I believe happened being there after they removed her. I guess you could say it was an accidental death." | Balfour, Evelyn Jean (I104)

| 34 | Cemetery Info: Name: COLEMAN, Gordon Cemetery: Troy County: Wentworth Township: Beverly Reference: HM- Found at: http://www.islandnet.com/cgi-bin/wsearch Information for Gordon Coleman and Margaret Ann Babcock and their family comes from family members. Gordon's obituary reads as follows: "Gordon Coleman of 313 King Street West, Dundas, died last week in Pomona, California. Born at Troy 74 years ago, he had removed to Saskatchewan in 1909, served overseas in the First World War, and moved to Hamilton in 1926. For 20 years he had barbered in Hamilton., also in Dundas where he moved about 10 years ago. He was a member of the Dundas Baptist Church, and of the Over 60 Club. He is survived by his wife, the former Margaret Ann Babcock, three sons, Jesse and Marvin of Hamilton, and Earl of Pomona, California; two daughters, Mrs. Gordon Doyle (Laural) of Strathroy, and Mrs. Clarence Brenzil (Gertrude) of Dunnville. The body will be at the Cattel Funeral Home, 53 Main St., Dundas, from Wednesday morning. The funeral will be held on Thursday at 2 p.m. Burial will be in Troy Cemetery." On Gordon's attestation papers dated January 3, 1916, filled out when he joined the Canadian Army, Gordon states that he lives at Outlook, Saskatchewan, that he is a farmer, and that his wife is Margaret Ann Coleman. Gordon's son Earl wrote a letter to a family member telling something of his dad: "Gordon, my dad left home at age 14 and travelled all over the country from Ontario to Seattle, Washington and even went over to England once or twice on a cattle boat. He told me that when he first applied for a job on a cattle boat that the mate looked at him and said he was just looking for someone like him to take over the wheel and watch. Dad was so pleased to land such an important sounding job. Until he learned that he was required to clean up behind the cattle, wheel it to the side, and watch it sink. He worked as a carpenter, a sheepherder, in lumber camps as a teamster, a piano mover, as a farmer. He even worked on the farm of the Montana State Prison. He said it was as a paid laborer. We can only take his word for that. I believe him. I have a beautiful necklace made from horse hair that was done by a convict there. He was living in Winnipeg when he met a boardinghouse maid named Margaret Babcock and look what happened after that. Population explosion. After that marriage they continued to travel all over the west until mother became pregnant and they went back to Grandma's [Nancy] who had moved to Galt and was running a boarding house. They then went west on a homesteaders excursion to Outlook where Harry and his wife were already settled. My mother said that all she could remember of the homestead days was drudgery from before daylight until after dark. I don't believe that the homestead was ever proved up. As they didn't have the money to live on, Dad had to find work at other things. He finally got a job running the ferry across the Saskatchewan river and was employed by the provincial government. Four kids were born in Sask. and then in 1926 dad decided we kids should have a better chance in life if we lived in the east. Then the depression hit." | Coleman, Gordon Charles (I125)

| 50 | Earl is said to have been born in Ohio in the 1920 census taken at Fort Wayne, Indiana. There's no doubt, given the birth place of his parents, that he is the same person in South Bend City, Indiana, in the 1930 census. There he is a lodger. His age at the rooming house is given as 36. I have used the 1920 census for the year of his birth in this tree. | Davidson, Earl G. (I989)
