Died:
The J.H. Park that you have entered as buried in Fleming Cemetery is Joseph Hugh Park. He was the first son of Duncan Park and Mary Whyte McIntosh, and was an older brother to my grandmother Effie Park, who married Rae Salkeld of Gerald. Joe moved with his father Duncan to the Fleming, Saskatchewan area in 1900. He worked with his father for a while but later purchased a farm of his own 1 mile south of Fleming. He was a horse trader and cattle buyer in the area for many years. but became ill and he was taken to at first to Reston, Manitoba...and later to Esterhazy, Saskatchewan as Effie and Rae, lived in that area. It was said that he suffered from Asthma, but actually passed away of cancer in 1945. One of his sisters was Ellen Park Taylor who is also buried in Fleming Cemetery also his Aunt Jane his father's sister is also buried in that cemetery. Please feel free to add this information, if you like, it is from John Collins research on the McIntosh family of Lanark County. Regards Beverly Salkeld
