NANCY AVERY’S UNITED CHURCH OF CANADA NOTES

NANCY AVERY’S UNITED CHURCH OF CANADA NOTES

12SEP2002-20JAN2003

Information gathered by Nancy Avery, Moncton, New Brunswick

Compiled by Thomas A. Murray

In 1925, various churches of the Presbyterian, Methodist and Baptist churches amalgamated into the United Church of Canada. These three denominations were represented in Tabusintac, and nearby areas. The result is that many records of all three churches are in the United Church archives, in Sackville, NB. Nancy Avery has been examining these archival records, and providing interesting extractions from them. This is an activity I most heartily approve of, as one can never do wrong by going to primary sources. Disseminating the results is an act of altruism. There is a difficulty however.

My hotmail e-mail address is constantly in danger of being overloaded. I simply cannot keep up with all of the material. To relieve the ‘pressure’ I began copying Nancy’s material, and pasting it into one file. The result is difficult to search for pertinent information. I need to organize the material into a sort of ‘index’. The following is that attempt.

Part of the purpose of this work (indeed the main purpose) is to provide a resource in which the information derived from the primary source is as accurate as possible. This is impossible as Nancy Avery’s transcriptions necessarily make what I am working from a secondary source, and secondary sources always contain errors. This work as a third (even fourth) level transcription will, necessarily, also contain errors, misunderstandings, etc. I am attempting, however, to maintain as much accuracy as possible. This limits the degree to which I might make conclusions or assumptions. Conclusions should only be made when there is sufficient evidence to make them very close to certitude, if then. Assumptions should never be made within the body of this work.

Consider the two entries:

Janet McLeod Johnstone d/o James and Mary Ann (Blake) Johnstone b. 19JUL1853, bpt. 10OCT1853

and:

Janet Johnston, of Chatham, NB and Saint John, NB, d/o James Johnston of Tabusintac, sister of Andrew Johnston of Chatham NB, b. ca. 1854, d. Saint John, NB 28 or 29 MAR1876 aet. 22 years. “Shocking accident: At St. John on the 28 (or 29th blob of ink) ult, JANET JOHNSTON, belonging to Chatham, was instantaneously killed by falling from a balcony in the rear of Mr. H. N. Levy's residence, to the ground, a distance of 14 feet. She was in the act of hanging clothes on a pulley line, when the line suddenly parted as she leaned forward, precipitating her into the yard below. Deceased was a daughter of the late JAMES JOHNSTON of Tabusintac. Her brother , Mr. ANDREW JOHNSTON, on receiving the melancholy tidings, left Chatham to bring on the remains for interment at Chatham. Deceased was 22 years of age.” (Newcastle, Union Advocate, 5APR1876.)

then back refer to:

James Johnston m. Mary Ann Blake. (Nancy Avery reports them as buried in Riverside Cem., Tabusintac, “close to the vault”.

19NOV2002, Nancy Avery wrote:

I was speaking with Shirley Murray of Tabusintac not long ago to clarify a few points with her . . . she is a walking history book of the Murray family, and is also "up" on many other Tabu families. She had an interesting comment about James Johnston (1796) and how he met his wife, Mary Ann Blake, ( granddaughter of Charlotte Taylor). Shirley claimed that Emily Fraser told her this . . .

"James Johnston had a farm up river where the Buchanan's live. He travelled by boat, and stopped one day at the Campbell house across the river (apparently not too far from the present day site of the main bridge.) This is where he met Mary Ann Blake, who was a servant in the Campbell household." James and Mary Ann married and had a large family.

Jane Johnston d/o James and Mary Ann (Blake) Johnston b. 10DEC1833, bpt. 15MAR1835

John Johnston s/o James and Mary Ann (Blake) Johnston b. 12APR1835, bpt. 31MAY1835. (this child only lived a few months...he died July 7, 1836 , according to Judith Purdy, a descendent)

son of James and Mary Ann (Blake) Johnston b. 31JAN1836, bpt. 19FEB1837

John Johnston s/o James and Mary Ann (Blake) Johnston b. 8JAN1839, bpt. 13JAN

Andrew McNair Johnston s/o James and Mary Ann (Blake) Johnston b. 26(???)1850, bpt. (2?)(???)1851; by the Rev. Wm Stewart of Chatham

Janet McLeod Johnstone d/o James and Mary Ann (Blake) Johnstone b. 19JUL1853, bpt. 10OCT1853

The Janet McLeod Johnston b. 19JUL1853 with a father, James, and a brother, Andrew McNair Johnston, would almost certainly be the same Janet Johnston b. ca. 1854 with a father, James, and a brother, Andrew, who came to a untimely end in 1876. This is certainly the conclusion I would (and will) reach in a compilation on the family; but, the key word here is ALMOST. This is still in the nature of an assumption. If the mother had been named, there would be a greater degree of certitude, and I would combine the two Janet’s into one person. Here is the danger! Should I do so, and be wrong (by some strange quirk there being another James Johnston with children, Andrew and Janet) my assumption would be accepted as factual, and very difficult to disprove.

Neither is it enough that some person with additional information state that the two Janet Johnstons are the same person, and offer a summary of the family with other pertinent data. This would be to stray from the purpose of this work, to bring together information, into compilation. In a work on the Johnston family, I am free to make the connection; but here, I am restricted to attempting to just present the known facts as closely as possible.

Hence, what may seem to be obviously the same person may be entered more than once, conclusions, assumptions or even wild theories to be entertained elsewhere. Even so, errors are inevitable. Consider the entry:

William Edmund McInzie m. Mary _____ (Note, this could also be William Edmund m. Mary McInzie. See William Edmonds.)

David McInzie s/o William Edmund and Mary McInzie bpt. Tabusintac 2JAN1848

which is derived from Nancy’s note:

William Edmund and Mary McInzie(sic) son b. 1847, bapt 2 Jan, 1848, n. DAVID

this I read as William Edmund and Mary (_____) McInzie. A later note by Nancy reads:

- Thomas, born June 19, 1859 to William EDMONDS and Mary McKensie ( sic) of Tabusintac. Baptised on March 12, 1871.

- Mary, born ______, 1861

- Elizabeth , born Sept 27 , 1862

- John , born Aug 24 or 29 , 1864

Obviously, I have erred, and it should be William and Mary (McKenzie) Edmonds. I will be correcting this shortly; but it illustrates how errors can occur.

Where I seem to be missing obvious connections I am simply being obstinately conservative, and where I make an error, I can only extend my most sincere, “Whoops!” For example:

J. R. Price, witness marriage Daniel and Bessie (Robertson) McCullam, 23JUL1902

[Note: in 1902-3 there appear to have been three Jacobs: Jacob, Sr., Jacob, Jr (from Backwoods) and Jacob B. (from Red Pine Island.)]

Jacob Price b. PEI ca. 1841, d. 8JUN1939 aet. 98 years, bur. Price Settlement

Jacob Price received into Methodist Church, "Received by Chairman of District in Autumn of 1901"

Jacob Price, received into Methodist Church "Rec'd July 20th" 1902? (from Backwoods)

Jacob Price, Sr. member Methodist Church 1902-3 (from Backwoods)

Jacob Price, Jr. m. Jane ____, members Methodist Church 1902-3 (from Backwoods)

Jacob B. Price b. Price Settlement ca. 1864, d. (23 or 28)NOV1910 aet. 46 years, bur. Tabusintac; "Heavy cold developing into pneumonia". (Mrs.?) J. B. Price, "Received by Chairman of District in Autumn of 1901" (away.) Mrs. Jacob B. Price, member Methodist Church 1902-3 (from Red Pine Island)

gives seven possible entries for Jacob Price. The membership rolls of the Methodist Church for 1902-3 suggest that there are at least three Jacobs, as they list a Jacob, Sr. and Jacob, Jr. from Backwoods; and at the same time, a Mrs. Jacob B. Price from Red Pine Island. Of the two entries:

Jacob Price received into Methodist Church, "Received by Chairman of District in Autumn of 1901"

Jacob Price, received into Methodist Church "Rec'd July 20th" 1902? (from Backwoods)

either could be Jacob, Jr. or Jacob, Sr., but I have no way of telling which is which; so they are entered separately. Even though I can be fairly certain one is Jacob, Sr. and the other most likely Jacob, Jr., without some way of distinguishing between them, they become ‘duplicated’ entries in that the same person is entered twice. Also, the designations, “Sr.” and “Jr.” simply mean “elder” and “younger”; not necessarily “father” and “son’. They could as easily be uncle and nephew.

Another difficulty is the spelling of names, especially surnames. Varieties are bewildering, and even today two branches of the same family may use different versions. As a rule, I attempt to transcribe the names as given. Their are difficulties, for example: should VANADESTINE be reduced to Van Adestine, VanAdestine, Vanadestine or Van adestine? I definitely wish to avoid the debate as to whether it should be McLean, Mclean, Maclean or MacLean. Again, I am trying to replicate the information in the source as closely as possible. Where feasible, I attempt to use the most probable spelling in headings, etc.; but hope to be forgiven if I do not hit upon what is felt to be the most æsthetic version.

In spite of the foregoing, I cannot restrain myself from allowing some correlations which (by the stated principles) I really should not make, or appending comments that really should not be included. Consider Elsie MacLeod’s story on Howard Joseph Savoy s/o Frank and Annie Savoy. It seems worthwhile of preservation. I also fall prey to the desire to make some speculations as ‘hints’ or observations. Sometimes, I am able to restrain myself. Consider, (Velinda?) Jane McCullam Robertson d/o Wm C. and Sarah Robertson of Tabusintac. I am pretty sure the name should be Belinda, and it has been stated as such. Yet I feel compelled, without more sureties, to allow the entry to stand without comment. (Well, actually I just did comment didn’t I?)

Another factor is amending spelling or punctuation errors. As ‘editor’ I feel obliged to make some of the more obvious corrections (generally excluding names), but I do attempt to check my fervour. Most importantly are some of the newspaper extractions. Rarely I find something so obviously incorrect that I cannot feel that it was in the original. If there is any doubt (as in the use of Americanisms), I generally leave it as it is.

The terms, “Mr.” and “Esquire” had specific connotations in the 19th century. With “esquire”, even today, there are certain conventions of usage. It is not a title, but approaches something like a title. More specifically, it refers to someone who is worthy of honours (knighthood especially), and it is assumed that these will be eventually bestowed. It is courteous to refer to such a person as esquire, but presumptuous for one to assume the designation. As a rule, I leave the term out; not because the individual involved is undeserving of it, but because newspapers of the period tend to overuse it. (Also, because I am a reactionary prig.)

Nancy Avery, as well as extractions from the United Church archives, sometimes transcribes newspaper notices, headstone inscriptions, or results from other sources. These are included as best as is possible in the following. If someone troubles to replicate primary sources and pass them on, they should not be ignored.

Rather than transcribe Nancy’s notes, I have adopted a format in which the information, but not necessarily wording, order, punctuation, etc. is transcribed. This is to allow a consistency of style where individuals are noted, and their children listed below them by indentations. Those indentations will probably be lost if I send this by e-mail. Each child is also included beneath the mother (when her maiden name is known) and also listed separately. I hope this will ease cross-referencing to some degree.

Sometimes a baptism appears to have been entered more than once in separate records. Why this is so is not wholly clear. Presumably, a record would be kept for each church, and possibly a second register for the Methodist circuit, or (at the formation of the United Church) records were gathered and compiled for a specific area.

When Nancy has some additional comment of her own, or from the consulted record, I generally include these in parentheses ( ); while my own comments are generally in brackets [ ].

SOME OF NANCY AVERY’S COMMENTS:

12SEP2002

Today I spent a few hours at the United Church archives in Sackville, NB, looking for things that, unfortunately, did not show up. However, I decided to copy down some familiar names being researched by Tab-Mir subscribers, since many of you live outside of NB, and would not have easy access to this ...

This archives holds the records for the *Presbyterian* Church from its inception in Tabusintac in the mid 1830's until church union in 1925. After that, the records are *United* Church only.

Whoever microfilmed these records from Tabu, must have been having a bad day, because very little is in chronological order, so you will see events from the late 1800's long before the 1830's.

9SEP2002

Recently, I was reviewing a few microfilms of the 'Chatham Gleaner'. One tape was in the first couple of years of the 1850's, and the other was approx 1859- 1861. Whenever mention was made of a marriage or death in Tabusintac, or the Burnt Church area, (or names familiar to those communities) I copied the info down.

25SEP2002

Well, folks, went searching reams of my old notes and came up with some things that I found in archived microfilms last year, including the following about 'Rev. Simon Fraser'. (forgot I had this stuff.) But first, leading up to that, the 'Chatham Gleaner' had this:

Feb 19, 1833

We are requested to intimate to the inhabitants of Tabusintac, Bay du Vin and Black River that the Directors of the Glasgow North American Society have granted £50 Sterling annually for 5 years, to assist them in supporting a Minister, and they hope soon to send them an able Clergyman of the Church of Scotland, having the Gaelic Language. It is hoped these settlements will duly appreciate this boon.

(For those who are unaware, the minister was required to be bilingual, ie, he had to speak both English and Gaelic, because many of the inhabitants of these communities, including Tabusintac, could speak only Gaelic.)

Then there was.... in the "Miramichi Gazette":

Wednesday, 14 Jan, 1835

This day a "prorenate" meeting of the Presbytery of New Brunswick, was held in St James Church, Newcastle, for the purpose of taking upon trials, with a view to his ordination, the Rev. SIMON FRASER, lately appointed by the North American Colonial Society to the united charges of Alnwick and Glenelg . . . (and it goes on and on) . . . his ordination to take place in St Andrews Church, Chatham, on Friday the 16th, inst . . . (more followed, then) . . . Mr. Fraser is the 9th ordained clergyman now in the province, in connection with the established Church of Scotland. . . . the Presbyterians of Alnwick and Glenelg owe a debt of gratitude for having sent out to them such an able and promising Minister of the New Testament.

And finally:

Dec 15, 1835

Tabusintac and Burnt Church

On the 3rd inst, a deputation of the ladies of the settlements of Tabusintac and Burnt Church, waited upon their pastor, the Rev. Simon Fraser, A.M., and presented him with a handsome and richly ornamented superfine Geneva pulpit Gown, in testimony of the high regard and affection which they have for him . . . . (and so on.)

So, guess this proves that the date of Rev. Fraser’s arrival in Tabusintac must have been at the beginning of 1835, and not in 1837, as stated in the " History of Tabusintac".

[Note: John Garner wrote (7OCT2002):

For what it’s worth, the book “Black River and Its First Settlers” indicates that Rev. Simon Fraser arrived in 1834. The initial meeting where parishioners subscribed to fund St. Stephen’s church was held 10 Nov 1834 and Rev. Fraser was in attendance. One assumes that there were earlier meetings before a general one would have been called.

The sharing of the minister between St. Andrews and St. Stephen churches suggests that there was a great deal more communication across the river than is often suggested. Certainly, Rev. Fraser was directed to split his time between the two churches. For example the ladies of Miramichi, Tabusintac, Bay du Vin and Black River canvassed their districts to present the Rev. with a Pulpit Gown. Rev Fraser’s last sermon in St. Stephens was 12 Apr 1840, St David’s in Burnt Church on 14 March 1840 and St Andrews in Tabusintac on 8 March 1840.]

28SEP2002

Still searching for info on ancestors. found none of mine, but perhaps a few that will be of benefit to some of you. All of the following appeared in the 'UNION ADVOCATE', Newcastle, NB. It was published weekly, every Wednesday. I will put the date the article appeared. [I have included those excerpts from the, Union Advocate, amongst the church records. TAM.]

11NOV2002

[Referring to baptisms dated 1870’s.]

I'm back with a few more baptisms for you. . .trying something different this time.

For your interest. . . . These old church records were found in the attic of the manse in the 1970's by Rev. Charles Swan in rather poor condition. Luckily for us, he recognized the value of these decrepit files, and donated them to the archives in Sackville, NB. Some of the pages did not survive, and of those that did, many entries are of poor quality. . . some are totally illegible, and some are only legible because *a few* letters are visible, and, . . . since I am familiar with the characters involved, I can fill in the blanks in occasional cases. Even with that . . . you will find a lot of question marks.

All of these entries came from the United Church Archives in Sackville, NB.

17NOV2002

While at the library in Tabusintac during the summer, I browsed through an old donated scrapbook, and found some interesting news clippings. Unfortunately, most of them were undated. If anyone can fill in the blanks, would you please let us know ? Thanks. Only had time to copy down a few of them . . . will do more next summer.

Chatham Gleaner, July, 1833

Copied from the, Boston Weekly Messenger

"EMIGRATION TO CANADA

The Canadian Literary Journal contains some curious statements respecting the character and extent of the recent emigration from Europe to the Canadas. Prior to the year 1830, the number of emigrants was comparatively small, and they were almost exclusively laboring men, wholly destitute of pecuniary resources, who came out for the purpose of procuring the means of subsistence. Within the last 3 years, the number of emigrants has been 3 or 4 times as great as the average of several years preceding, and a large portion of them have been farmers of considerable property, professional men, and retired officers of the army and navy. The value of real estate in the Provinces, says the Journal, has been everywhere materially increased, and that of the wild lands in Upper Canada has been more than doubled. The number of emigrants in 1829 was 15,945, in 1830, was 28,000, in 1831, 50,254, and in 1832, 51,746.

Of this last number, 16,830 were males, 17,052 were females, and 14,864 were children under 14 years of age. All of them were voluntary emigrants, excepting about 5,000, who received parochial aid. 35, 000 went to Upper Canada, 10,000 remained in Lower Canada, 2350 died of cholera, 850 returned to their own country, and 3346 went to the United states. During the last 4 years, the increase of emigration from England has been five-fold, from Ireland, three-fold, and from Scotland, two-fold, and the emigration was greater by 70% than that of the preceding year, while emigration from Ireland was diminished by 15%.

The professional men who came out during the last year, have established themselves in the towns and villages of Upper Canada, the officers have obtained ,and in general settled upon the lands to which they are entitled for their services; and the agricultural emigrants have purchased cultivated farms in different parts of the provinces. The laboring class have been settled on the wild land belonging to the Crown, a large portion of which are in the district of Newcastle. It was in this district that the first experiment was made of settling bodies of indigent emigrants upon these lands, and though various difficulties have been encountered, the Journal declares that it has been eminently successful: the population of this district having increased since the year 1817, from 4,000 to 30,000. The advantages derived from emigration are attributed chiefly to the exertions of Lieutenant Governor, Sir John Colborne, who has not only done much to promote it, but has distinguished himself by his efforts to secure the comfort and prosperity of the emigrants."

22 March, 1834 edition of the, Chatham Gleaner:

The 'Marriage Act' was passed in the last session of Parliament and has since received royal assent.

"An act to extend the privilege of solemnizing marriage to all ministers or Teachers of the several religious Congregations in this Province."

[My understanding was that, until this time, marriages could only be performed by Anglican (the “Established Church”) or Roman Catholic priests, or by Church of Scotland ministers and magistrates. Effectively Baptist, Methodist and other dissenting denominations had no authority. From this point, one finds the Methodist and Baptist congregations growing and active recruitment by travelling evangelists. TAM]

2 Dec 2002

Hi, all.

After being told by different people that no Tabusintac Methodist records existed, I was pleasantly surprised to find a few wedding entries among the United Church archives, along with a record of membership in that congregation during 1901-02, again in 1902-03, and later, in 1923, when the Methodists joined the Presbyterian Church in Tabusintac.

These surnames are found on the roster in 1901-02. (Hierlihy, Robertson, Price, Fraser, England, Strang, Harding, Murray, McEachern, plus a Stymiest, Savoy, Milligan, McInnis, Palmer, Dickenson and Lee.)

Then in 1902-03, the following names are added. (Ashford, Blanchard, Edmunds, Girvan, McKnight, McCullam, Stewart.)

After entering the weddings over the next few notes to you, I'll give a full printout of the names on the Communion roll, and next time I get a chance to review the tape, will note what other info is available . . . but for the most part, it seems to be just terribly dull meetings.

So here are a few of those Methodist weddings . . . (found 9 in total.)

5DEC2002

Here is the "Membership of the Church of Tabusintac embracing the Methodists of Tabusintac, Tracadie , Neguac , New Jersey , Bay du Vin, and Escuminac”, in 1901 - 1902.

Note. A (*) is placed beside those names that have a notation beside the original that "looks like" it says 'died' or 'dead', however, all of these same names turn up still on the register in 1902 - 1903!!??

19DEC2002

[referring to baptisms 1924-1925]

Hi.

The Methodists entered union with the Presbyterian Church in Tabusintac on Dec 9, 1923. Then in 1925, the Presbyterian Church joined the United Church of Canada. A percentage of the original Presbyterians and original Methodists refused to join this new union, and instead, they built a new Presbyterian Church in Tabusintac the following year. The following former Methodist parents(who did join the new United Church) had these children baptised by the minister, Rev. John C. Mortimer in 1924 and 1925.

1JAN2003

Then, in the " A History of Tabusintac, NB, " published in 1975, found the following in the notes on page 64, made about the W.S.LOGGIE Co. Lobster factory.

"The cooks who worked here over the years are : Helen Milligan, Maria Ashford, Mary Ann Lee, Will MacDonald, Herb Robertson, and Ed Palmer."

"Price Settlement Post Office" ( As written in 'A History of Tabusintac, NB',1975 edition)

"The Price Settlement Post Office was established on Jan 15, 1909 and remained open until May 31, 1948. 'Geographical Names of New Brunswick' states that the office was named for an early settler named William Price, who arrived from Prince Edward Island around 1830.

Appropriately, the name of the first postmaster was Price --- Jacob Price, Sr., who held the post until his death on June 8, 1939. Mrs Isabella Price filled in as Acting Postmaster for a few months, until she was relieved by Henry Price, who remained in the position from the time of his appointment on Aug 15, 1939 until the office was closed May 31, 1948. Service continued as Tabusintac RR #1. Then RR#1 and RR #2 were amalgamated on Oct 1, 1968, and is now RR#2.”

11JAN2003

Hello. These 1906 baptisms, found in the United Church Archives, were all performed by Ernest S. Weeks. Would appreciate it if you can help out by giving the maiden name of the mother of these children. I suspect all of these were in fact, Methodist baptisms that managed to get saved with the UC archives records.

I find it fitting that these names will end up where they started, in the Methodist Church. I will be placing a copy of these baptisms in the library in Tabusintac, along with the marriages and deaths that have been posted. Most of you are probably aware that the library in Tabusintac started it's life as the Methodist Church. It was built of hand hewn lumber, and was put together using hand carved pegs. There were no nails used. It still feels strong and sturdy today, well over a century after it was built.

18JAN2003

I came across a lot of names (392 names in total) that were on the Communion Roll of the Presbyterian Church of the Tabusintac circuit found in the United Church Archives. Some of them have notations as to when the name was removed from the list. In some cases, the person moved, in others, they transferred, but in a few lucky instances, it gives at least a year of death. This is especially valuable, since death records were rare before the 1900's (and there wasn't a Hugh Murray to be found among all these names!)

A word of caution here... the date below may not be the actual date of death. (Then again, maybe it is.) The first column in the register gave the date the name was removed from the roll, and the second column gave the reason for its' removal. In each case below, that was due to death. So, although these are perhaps not actual dates of death, at least it is probably close, and might help pinpoint a time frame for those who are not sure of a DOD.

If anyone knows the actual dod of some of these people, it will give an idea of how close these dates are.
