Died:
"Mr. Foster was born Aug 20, 1853 at Perth, Ontario, Canada. One of a family of 6 boys and 5 girls with whom the parents Henry and Margaret Foster were blessed. As Archie he was more commonly known to his family and friends spent his boyhood with his family at Perth and later Marksdale, Ontario. And the year of 1873 he came to the state of Michigan plying his trade in the lumber woods. And as time went on entered into all phase of lumber industry and finally ran his own camps. In the year of 1882 he met and wed Sarah Richardson, the couple making their home in Rolland township, clearing the land and enduring all the privations and hardships mixed with the joys which confronted pioneer families. 13 children were born to Archie and Sarah, seven boys and six girls, all of whom survive, except Charles who passed away in the year of 1931, although the children grew up and scattered to make their own homes. Archie and Sarah have always resided in this locality with the exception of a few years spent in the state of Oregon. On April 10, 1933 Mother Foster passed away a loss to which Archie could never become accustomed. Although he was in ill health during his declining years he refused to leave, except for a short period, the home which contained so many memories of a long life well spent."

Notes:

Moved west to homestead in 1891. Took rail to Melita, MB (end of rail). Traveled north to Tilston, MB, 10-6-29 Rural Municipality of Albert, where closest neighbour was 9-10 miles south. Bob McInally and Jimmy Brown homesteads just east of homestead. Other neighbours were primarily from Iceland - Olsens, Abrahamsens, Fredricksons, Thordarsons.
These settlers left during the 1930's. They built a sod hut on SW quarter and gathered buffalo chips for fuel because there were no trees or shrubs. Nearest supplies were from Melita or Reston. Lumber was hauled from Moose Mountain near Carlyle and a two room shack was built.

Alexander died three years after homesteading and was buried just north of homestead buildings. Susan and children moved to Reston where children could attend school. She and children moved to homestead in the summers in order to keep her rights. Susan, Peter and Christina moved back to the farm when Peter was old enough to run the farm.

Susan died on the farm in 1930 at 80 years of age. She divided her land among her three children and Peter bought Fraser's and Christina's shares. Fraser and Christina never married and remained on the farm until their deaths.

Land & Property:
The Ashby home, now in 1969, belongs to Morris, son of John Ashby - Lot 22 of the 10th and 11th concessions. To the left hand side, high up from Bolton Creek, runs the old 11th concession known as the MacKay line, because of two brothers by that name who owned a double section of land. It still goes by that name.

(There was) A log boarding house, once owned and assumed to be built by Sandy Bain, who owned a mill by the Bolton Creek, operated by Jack Bolton. The first mill to be built in what was originally called Bolton's Mills, then changed to Fallbrook. It has been assumed this log building was used as a store as well as a boarding house, as there were shelves and partitions built in, similar to stores in those days when William Asby and his wife Charlotte Morris, moved there. Prior to that Bill Gallagher had lived there.

William Ashby had lived in the McDonald house (now in 1969 belongs to Roy Beach) then in Drummond, from there to what was known for years as the Murray House, but had at that time (the Murray's time) been down on the banks of the Fall river near John Blair's.

William Ashby bought the Gallagher property and house from Bill, consisted of 130 or 140 acres.
The family were Jim Ashby 1887, John Ashby 1899, Bill Ashby, Lizzie 1891, Lottie, Esther.

William Ashby died in 1913. His son John lived with his mother and worked the farm.
Jim Ashby married Bessie Thompson.
Lizzie married Herb Gallagher.
Mae married John Watt.
Lottie married Herb Watt.

In 1927 John Ashby with Mick Flood as carpenter built a large house directly behind the old one.
In 1928 Mrs William Ashby died.
In 1932 John Ashby marrried Lillian North, daugher of Mr and Mrs Thomas North from the 11th line, Bathurst, previously from Bennett's Lake.
They had 2 sons, Morris 1932 and Ivan 1939; one daughter and one son died in infancy.
Morris married Shirley Burke in 1959.
Ivan married Phyllis Foster.

In 1965 John Ashby died, Lillian moved to Perth, Morris and family moved from the Watt farm at Playfairville, which he had bought, to the home farm and lives there with his wife and one son and two daughters.
Besides farming, Morris has worked for ---- years with the County.

Mr. William Ashby
A life-long resident of Bathurst, in the vicinity of Fallbrook, was Mr. Wm. Ashby. Death summoned him away last Thursday, March 13th, after an illness with pneumonia.

For two years past heart trouble had given him much annoyance, and it was thought by his friends who were closest to him that this affection of the heart would be the cause of death. But, strange to say, it proved altogether otherwise, for the attack of pneumonia developed strongly and quickly proved fatal.

Wm. Ashby was born in Bathurst 51 years ago. His occupation waa farming, which he followed with much success. Twenty-eight years ago he married Charlotte Morris. There are six children, all at home - James, William, John, May, Elisabeth and Lottie. Anglican in religious matters and Conservative in politics Mr. Ashby led a consistent and honorable life, true to his church and party. The funeral last Saturday from Fallbrook to Playfair cemetery was largely attended, Rev. T. L. Aborn conducting the services.
