Hugh was a very quiet man, but he was not one to shun work of any kind. He wore many hats during his lifetime, from owner of a hardware store, to that of undertaker, and lastly drove a streetcar in Edmonton, until he retired to New Westminister, British Columbia.
When they came to Alberta in 1900, they had Urith, Russell and Hiram with them, but after arriving they had Levingston and Doris.
Their daughter Urith married Roy Minter, who also drove a streetcar in Edmonton, and lived in Abbotsford B C after they retired, and their daughter Doris married Clarence Langford and lived in New Westminster.
Two sons died as single young men. Russell was killed in the war in 1916, in Ypres. Livingston died of appendicitis in his early 20s, in 1925 in Edmonton.
Hiram, the only son that lived to marry, actually lived a good long life, he passed away at 97 in Edmonton. Hiram was also a man of few words, like his father.
