Notes

Note

William R was born in Kensington in 1886, the son of John Mann and Elizabeth Moase.

He married Beatrice (Bea) England Baker, daughter of Richard Herbert Read Baker and Evelyn England Tuplin. They had three sons. According to the History of Margate, William purchased the Fyfe farm in Margate in 1911.

The family was struck twice by tragedy. Their eldest son died in 1933, at the age of 24, Prince Edward Island's first air fatality. Although Herbert had considerable flying experience and a pilot's license, his plane crashed when a wing broke off. Their youngest son, Eldon, died overseas in the Second World War.

The family sold the farm to Edward Dyment in 1933. William died in 1956 at the age of 70 years.

Information on this family came from The History of Margate, the PEI Baptism Database, and Canadian Census Records.
