They came Via CP Rail crossing at the Couts Port of entry and settling in Battle River Alberta. They later made their way to Hughenden Alberta and began Farming. During their time in Hughenden they had four more children.
George and Myrtle made the Journey back to the USA with the younger of the Children and settled in Oklahoma. Myrtle became ill and died in 1925, She is Buried in Enid Garfield Oklahoma.
George remained unmarried and made the trek back to Alberta Canada where he settled for a short while in the Kessler Area and then moved to the Drayton Valley area where his Family had remained, George died on Jan 21st 1945 from a ruptured appendix.
He was my 2nd Great Grandfather and as I write this and reflect on everything I read, my Grandfather endured much loss in his life time but made a Huge impact on many lives. The one description of him in the many writings I read stands out the most. "Iona Lainchbury" his Granddaughter writes "He was a Grand,Gentle man:we liked visiting with him and Loved him. He made me feel so welcome"
