• Notes

  [Ash.FBK] [THE ASH TREE.GED] I believe William Wilkshire was born in Ontario as stated in the census of 1881, but in the 1871 Ontario census it states that he was born in Newfoundland. In the 1891 census he was working as a mail driver. In 1901 census he was a general servan t, residing in Rose Bank Lot. 46, and worked for a farmer Mr. Grant for a yearly wage of $16. His health was very poorly at this time and they thought that the move to the country would be beneficial. When William and Miriam were married first t hey lived for a short time with his parents William and Catherine Wilkshire on the corner of Gerald and Orlebar St.. At the time of his death they lived in a little house situated in the old Church of England Cemetery on University Ave. which was later moved to Bishop St. and is still there today. At that time he was a gardener for St. Pauls Church. He died at 36 probably of TB.. The Daily Examiner - Dec. 12, 1905 states that the funeral was to be held from his late residence on Elm Ave . (University Ave.) and burial to be in the Peoples Cemetery.
