554 (Research):About 1900, Elizabeth Millar's family is in North Dakota. Married at Buckshot. Her parents are listed as John Miller and Janet Miller.

Lanark Era - June 5,1918 - Snow Road, Thurs. May 30th, Mrs. Hugh McKinnon, aged 63 years. Born at Snow Road, the daughter of the late James Miller, Elizabeth Miller, had a family of ten children; Mrs. Geo. Hatt, of Airdrie, Alta. died about 9 years ago; Mrs. Wm. Richards, of Calgary; Mrs. John Lee, Tofield, Alta.; Mrs. Percy Johnston, Fort Pitt, Sask; Mrs. Harry Glover, DeWinton, Alta.; Florence and Edith , at home; Hughie, and James, at Vulcan, Alta.; and Charles, at Fallbrook. She is also survived by three brothers; William Miller, at North Battleford; James, and Thomas, at Snow Road.

My Mother was told by a distant aunt that Elizabeth, Hannah, and Alexander's parents were John and Janet Miller.
You will note that Hannah lists her parents as John Johnston and Janet Miller. Elizabeth lists them as John and Janet Miller. We were told that Janet re-married - fellow's name was Johnston and Hannah's marriage record seems to confirm this. So their Father John Miller may have died between 1866 (Alexander's birthdate) and 1871 when they appeared in the 1871 census with Robert Brown Millar and Elizabeth Smith. Can find no record for John and Janet's marriage or John Johnston and Janet Miller's marriage.

1861 and 1871 Censuses of Canada- living with his mom and dad and family in Gosfield, Canada.

1881 Census of Canada - living with his wife and children in Windsor. Working as a clerk.

There are several voting records and city directories that list him living in Detroit and Windsor during this time.

1901 - I haven't found him. His wife Ruth Ashby is listed as married but she is living with adult children in Windsor, Ontario.

1903 Harriet McDonald Pulford's Obituary "six children survive?. A. M. Pulford of Idaho"

1910 US Federal Census - A Monroe Pulford b. 1858 in Missouri, living in McHenry North Dakota. Working as a "servant" says mother/father were from Scotland.

1915 North Dakota State Census - Monroe Pulford in Carrington

1920 Monroe Pulford b. abt 1859 Missouri, "patient" in a hospital in Illinois. Father/Mother born Canada.

1930 U.S Federal Census- Alex Pulford b. abt 1858 Missouri, single, occupation: inmate Oak Forest infirmary. Bremen, Cook, Illinois.

15 Jun 1931 -Alexander Pulford - Bremen, Cook, Illinois, United States - Oak Forest Infirmary- male 82 single white -sailor b.1849 birthplace-unknown, burial 23 jun 1931-cemetery "central plant".

Ruth is buried in Windsor. As far as records go the single American wanderer Monroe Pulford doesn't exist before 1910 and the married Canadian father of five doesn't exist after around 1900. His dad died in 1899 and then his mom died in 1903. I'm think that he left his wife and family around 1900 after his dad died. He travelled around and then died an infirmed indigent in Chicago.

Craigton House, photographed in 1870 by Thomas Annan.

The first coal mines are said to have been opened in Craigton and neighbouring Drumoyne in the 16th century, and ironstone was being mined there by the early 19th century. The Glasgow merchant John Ritchie (d 1755) bought the Craigton estate in 1746. It passed on his death to his son James (1722-1799), a leading tobacco merchant and a founding partner of the Thistle Bank in 1761. James' son Henry (d 1843), also a partner in Thistle Bank, sold the estate in 1830 to Henry Dunlop (1799-1867) of James Dunlop & Sons, cotton spinners and manufacturers. Dunlop was Lord Provost of Glasgow 1837-1840 and Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce in 1841, 1850 and 1862. He sold Craigton to Graham Hutchison, merchant in Glasgow, several years before his death.

Craigton Cemetery was opened by the Burgh of Govan in 1873. The Craigton housing estate was built 1921-1923.

582 (Research):Although it was understood for years that Melville died of diptheria, it appears that he went to live with and was raised by his grandparents. The year of his death was believed to have been 1893 and may have been the year he moved to his grandparent's home. His siblings do not appear to have known of this relationship although they would have gone to school with him. My grandmother would have been too young to know what was happening. John and Mary Jane lost another child to diptheria and one to drowning around this time and it would have been a very difficult time for the family. Ashby, Lt. John Melville "Melville" (I4289)

589 (Research):Archie attended Kingston Dairy School in Kingston ON before travelling to Edmonton in 1918, He worked at the Woodland Dairy and Edmonton City Dairy before moving to Rossington where he opened a cheese factory across from the Rossington store. While there, he lived on the Brownlie place in a log house on the banks of the Pembina River (NW1/4-14-60-1-W5th). Water was drawn from the Pembina River and there was a lake on the other side of the house.

The family moved to Westlock where Archie worked as a cream tester at the Westlock Creamery. After leaving the creamery they moved two miles east of Westlock to the Edison District where Archie farmed and started a dairy business, Rich Valley Dairy, deliverying milk in Westlock. He later moved two and and half miles west of Westlock (Edison district, on banks of Wabsh R.)) where he farmed and carried on his dairy business (Rich Valley Dairy). Milk was delivered seven days a week, and when short, would return to town (Westlock) after the evening milking to make up for the daytime delivery shortage. During his years of milk delivery he collected over 350 bottles from Canadian and USA towns. He gave the collection to Dick Adkins and were displayed at Dick's mini-museum on hwy 18 west of Westlock for many years.

Archie originally had a herd of Jersey cows and later switched to Holsteins.

After 35 years, Archie retired from the Dairy business in 1959 when he sold to the Northern Alberta Dairy Pool.

Archie and his family lived on the banks of the Wabush until his death in 1964. His wife Thelma continued to live there with her family until her death in 1974. In 1984 their daughters Eileen and Lonetta continued to live there with their husbands.

For the football team, see Arthurlie F.C.
Arthurlie is an area of the town of Barrhead, East Renfrewshire, Scotland.

History of Arthurlie
The lands of Arthurlie were held in medieval times by the Stewart family, a branch of the noble Stewarts of Darnley. Later the lands became the property of Allan Pollock, Esq. and remained in his family for several generations before being inherited by Gavin Ralston of Woodside in Beith.[1] The area has long been associated with the legends of King Arthur.[2] The name means 'Arthur's meadow.'[3] Arthurlie was a barony of considerable extent, however it eventually came to be purchased by Henry Dunlop Esq. in 1818 from Gavin Ralston, a distant relative.

The Dunlop family ran Gateside Cotton Mill under the name of James Dunlop & Son. The old house was torn down and Arthurlie House was erected with the old gardens extended and remodelled in 1818.[2] The estate remained in the hands of the Dunlop family until about 1938. It was a Mr. Charles Taylor who discovered the ancient Arthurlee Cross being used as a gatepost on the estate and persuaded Henry Dunlop to rescue it.[4]

This stone is a 10th - 11th century cross-shaft[6] made from a very hard and compact sandstone, and it now stands at NS 4997 5854, by the roadside, set in a modern rectangular base and protected by railings.

The cross measures 2.2 m (7 ft 3 in) high, 0.5 m (1 ft 8 in) wide, and 0.2 m (8 in) thick and is in good condition except that one face is badly worn. One side had an iron ring indented into it, almost flush with the surface, this being done during its time when it was being used as a gate post after it was no longer used as a bridge.[5] In the 1857 Name Book[7] it was believed that its original site had been at NS 4968 5813 in a field called Cross-stane-park.[8] In 1795 it was acting as a footbridge over a stream in the Colinbar Glen area at the bottom of the Cross-stane-park (NS 497 580).[9] It stayed there long enough to be worn smooth on one face; it was seen by the OS surveyor in 1857

In approximately 1870 it was erected in the grounds of Arthurlee House at NS 4979 5814 as shown in the photograph. Sometime prior to 1942 it was moved yet again by Barrhead Council to its present position.

The stone is said to be associated with Arthur, King of the Britons. Locally it was said to mark Arthur's grave or a conspicuous leader of that name.[2]
