9027	Ottawa Citizen - February 1, 1937 - Mrs. Albert Boulter Was Widely Known as Charity Worker Mrs. Albert Boulter, sister of Hon. George Bryson and widely known throughout Canada for her charitable work and her benevolence to many societies, died this morning at her home in Fort Coulonge. She was in her 83rd year. Although she had been ailing for more than three weeks, her passing came suddenly and will cause widespread regret in the Ottawa Valley, where her many years of helpful work will ever be remembered. Born in Fort Coulonge, Que., Jennie Bryson, was a daughter of the late Hon. George Bryson and his wife, the former Robina Cobb, who came to Canada from Scotland in 1821. She had resided in Fort Coulonge all her life. She was educated at Butte House, Montreal, and her marriage took place in 1896 to Albert Boulter, who predeceased her in 1900. In memory of her late husband, she endowed a home in Jhansi, India, under the late Dr. Wilkie, and also another home for lepers, which was also set up in India. Mrs. Boulter was a keen church worker and through her very active life her church was her main interest and she took an active part in the various organizations of St. Andrew's Presbyterian church, Fort Coulonge, of which she was a life member. Her unselfishness and devotion to the societies with which she was actively engaged, will be sorely missed by those with whom she came in contact, her generosity and benevolence having endeared her in the hearts of many. She was a life member of the Young Women's Christian Association, the Red Cross Society and the Bronson Memorial Home, Ottawa, and also of the Women's Missionary Society of the Presbyterian Church in Canada. She was also interested in the Salvation Army and was a great supporter of the Rosamond hospital, Almonte, Ont.

The late Mrs. Boulter, who was the only sister of Hon. George Bryson, MLC, for Inkerman, was in her 83rd year, and while she had not been in the best of health for some time, her sudden passing came as a shock to her many relatives and friends.

9028	Ottawa Citizen - February 21, 1942 - George J. Bryson, Prominent Citizen, Passes in Capital - Widely Known Member of Ottawa Valley Family Dies After Long Illness George J. Bryson, a member of a prominently known Ottawa Valley family, died at his home, 300 Cooper Street, this morning at the age of 64 years. Mr. Bryson, who had been in indifferent health for two years, was confined to bed for the past six months. A son of the late John Bryson, a former member of Parliament for Pontiac, and of Mary C. Bryson, he was born at Fort Coulonge in November, 1877, and spent the earlier part of his life there, having been engaged in the lumbering business with his father. Coming to Ottawa 40 years ago after having received his education in Lennoxville and Belleville, he was a keen sportsman and athlete. Football, lacrosse and hockey were his favorite sports, and after his playing days were over, he followed with enthusiasm the fortunes of the old Silver Seven hockey team, the Capital Lacrosse Club, and the Ottawa Rough Riders Football Club. He was a member of the executive of the latter club. While in Ottawa, Mr. Bryson looked after the lumbering interests of the lumber company which bore his father's name, and was also engaged in real estate operations. He had a host pf friends both in the Capital and throughout the Ottawa Valley. Mr. Bryson was the only surviving charter member of the Laurentian Club. Prominent in social and fraternal organizations, he was a member of the Royal Ottawa Golf Club, the Rideau Club and Country Club. He worshipped at St. Andrew's Presbyterian church. His passing will be widely mourned by hundreds of residents of Ottawa and district who were aided by his charitable contributions.

9030	Ottawa Citizen - May 10, 1937 - Bryson At Spruceholm, Fort Coulonge on Saturday, May 8, 1937, George Bryson, MLC, in his 85th year. Funeral from his late residence on Tuesday afternoon, May 11 at 2 pm (standard time). Interment in Fort Coulonge cemetery. Ottawa Citizen - May 10, 1937 - Hon. Geo. Bryson, Noted Canadian Figure, Dies; Lumberman and Banker Dean of the legislative council of Quebec, of which body he had been an honored member for half a century. Hon. George Bryson passed away Saturday at his residence, Spruceholm, Fort Coulonge, Quebec. The noted politician and businessman and outstanding citizen, not only of his native community or province, but of Canada, died in his 85th year. He was of a very philanthropic nature and made many contributions, not only to his own church, but to many other churches throughout the district. At all times he took a keen and active interest in the affairs of the Presbyterian Church, with which he had been connected since childhood. His passing will undoubtedly be the cause of keen regret by all who knew him. He was not only a public servant of single ability, but also a keen businessman and at various times in his life was connected with many of the important commercial concerns in the Dominion. His business acumen was of the highest order and his advice on matters of moment was frequently sought by those high in the mercantile world. Mr. Bryson was a true Quebecer, a man whose sympathies were strong toward both races in his native province. It was frequently stated by his colleagues in the legislative council, in which he served under five sovereigns, 11 lieutenants-governor and ten prime ministers, that he was responsible in no small measure for the warm feeling of cordiality which radiates through the Upper Chamber. When he celebrated his 50th anniversary as a member of the council in November of last year, Hon. Hector Laferte, in a statement in the Upper House at that time, said that it was a remarkable event, not only in Quebec, but in Canada, and perhaps the whole empire. He said that it certainly falls to the lot of a few men to spend a lifetime in one legislative body. In 1931 he was sworn in as minister without portfolio in the Tachereau administration, a post he held until 1934 when he resigned. He was chosen to represent the English minority in Quebec. The last of the second generation of Bryson's on the Upper Ottawa, George Bryson was born on the Bryson farm at Fort Coulonge on July 20, 1852, the son of George Bryson of Paisley, Scotland and his wife, Robina Cobb of Glasgow, Scotland, both of whom had emigrated to Lanark County, Ontario in 1821. He received his primary education at Fort Coulonge, later attending colleges in Toronto and Montreal. Following his graduation from college, he entered the lumber business with his brother, the late John Bryson, MP under the firm name of J. and G. Bryson. The lumber business was not entirely new to this young man, his father having made a notable contribution to that industry for many years previous. In 1909, he became a director of the Fraser-Bryson Company. In banking circles he was an esteemed figure. His father was one of the founders of the Bank of Ottawa at the time of it's inception.. During it's early days this bank was known as the 'Lumberman's Bank' for the reason that four of its early directors were directly identified with the lumbering business, while others had direct interests in that line. At the time of the merger of the Bank of Ottawa and the Bank of Nova Scotia in 1919, Hon. Mr. Bryson was its president, an office which he held from 1914. During the time he was president the bank made rapid strides, and at the time of the merger there were branch offices across Canada. Following the merger, Mr. Bryson was nominated to the office of director of the Bank of Nova Scotia, an office which he filled with honor during the balance of his life. In 1887 he was appointed to the legislative council, a body upon which his father had served with distinction for many years. Mr. Bryson Sr. was a Liberal member in politics. His son was a Liberal and throughout his entire lifetime was an ardent and worthy supporter of the party. In church circles, coming as he did from a long line of Presbyterians, his work was well-known. He gave generously of his time and talents to the many demands made upon him for charitable work and supported freely his home church, St. Andrew's, Fort Coulonge. Local politics also proved of great interest to Mr. Bryson, and he was a former mayor of Mansfield and Pontefract. He married the late Helen Craig of Glen Walter, Ontario in 1875. Her father, James Craig, represented Glengarry County in the Ontario legislature at the time of Confederation. She predeceased him in 1933. Both Mr. and Mrs. Bryson enjoyed the utmost popularity not only in their own community, but wherever they were known. He is survived by two daughters, Mrs. J.H. Francis of Indian Head, Sask, and Mrs. Owen C. Toller of Ottawa. A sister, Mrs. Albert Boulter, of Fort Coulonge, died in February. He is also survived by thirteen grandchildren; Miss Helen Cameron, who lived with Hon. Mr. Bryson at Fort Coulonge, J.B. Francis, Indian Head, Mrs. Curtis Bogart, Noranda, Miss Jean Moore, Master Bryson Moore, Mrs. Fred Bingham, Mrs. Arthur Henry Smith, Miss Nora Bryson, Master George Bryson, Miss Jean Bryson, Master George Toller, Master Eric Toller and Miss Joan Toller, all of Ottawa, one great-grandchild, Miss June Bingham, Ottawa and a son-in-law, Owen C. Toller of Ottawa. The funeral will take place at 2 pm Tuesday to St. Andrew's Church, Fort Coulonge, and burial will be in the family plot there. He was a keen sportsman and took great delight in hunting and fishing. He was an expert angler and whenever possible took the opportunity of going away with a few friends on a fishing trip. Another major interest in his life the Ottawa River Forest Protective Association, an organization which he served for many years as a director.	Bryson, George Jr. (I8414)

His only brother, Timothy, of Grand Rapids, Michigan, predeceased him thirteen years ago. The late Mr. Madden was subject to paralytic strokes and had been ailing for about a year. The third one came upon him Wednesday afternoon, and for three days he rallied "until the golden gates were opened and a gentle voice said 'Come'." He bore his long suffering very patiently and his demise at the age of sixty-seven is mourned by all who knew him, for he was a kind and loving husband and father, a true friend and a good neighbor. His funeral, which was largely attended, took place from his late residence, 12th Line of Ramsay, to St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church, Almonte on Tuesday morning at 8 o'clock, thence to the ninth line cemetery. The pallbearers were Messrs. James Galvin, Ed Kennedy, Patrick Kelly, William O'Brien, George O'Brien and Robert Powell.

The Claresholm Local Press Friday Jan 15 1932 CLARESHOLM'S FIRST MARRIED WOMAN RESIDENT, Mrs Wm MOFFAT DEAD The hand of Father Time waved "finis" on thelife of Mrs William Moffatt shortly after the noon hour on Wednesday. She had been a resident of Claresholm for nearly 30 years, coming here in 1902, and was the first married woman to settle in the town of Claresholm. The late Mrs Moffatt was born at Carlton Place, May 2 1856 and her maiden name was Flora McLean. At the age of eighteen years she and her husband, the late William Moffat, were married and to them were born seven children, four daughters and three sons. All but one daughter, Mrs L.A. Whitten of Winnipeg, survive. The children living are: Mrs W.R. Thompson of Calgary Mrs H.B. Tilden of Claresholm Mrs Alfred Dickson of Calgary J.E. Moffat R.E. Moffat W.G. Moffat all of Claresholm, AB In the year 1887 Mr & Mrs Moffat and their family of small children joined the western migration that followed the close of the North West Rebellion and settled at Pilot Mound, Manitoba, where they remained till moving to Claresholm in 1902. When they came here there was no town and Mr Moffatt opened up a lumber yard to supply the building requirements of the new settlers then coming in from all parts of the country. At the beginning mail was taken out to the Leeds ranch, but soon Mr Moffattt received the appointment of first postmaster in Claresholm. The United Church was crowded to accommodate the many friends who attended the funeral Friday afternoon. The casket and the alter were literally banked with wreaths and sprays of beautiful flowers, the tributes of a wide circle of admiring and sympathetic friends. Rev R.W. Dalgleish was assisted in the services by Rev H.A. Rowe of Granum and Rev J.W, Kidd of Okotoks, a former pastor of the Presbyterian church here before the days of the union and a native of both Mr & Mrs Moffat's home town in Ontario, Carlton Place. He spoke of his long association with the family and offered tribute to the worthy life of the departed. Mr Dalgliesh likened the mature life of the deceased to a spiral in time that takes us back to the childhood beginnings, but with a compensation childhood fails to recognize or appreciate. The full choir was in attendance, with Mrs A Laurie at the organ, and the hymns were favorites of Mrs Moffatt. Mr & Mrs Moffatt of Champion, G Moir of Barons, Mrs Thompson of Calgary, Mrs Percy Russell of Armada and Mr & Mrs Hay of Calgary, were among those here for the funeral services. The pallbearers were all early settlers here, Wm Knight, H.O. Haslam, K.C.; Geo Simpso; W.C. Miller; T.A. Murray; and C.E. Tillotson. Geo W Ringrose had charge of the funeral arrangements and interment was made in the Claresholm cemetery. Mrs Moffatt had been in frail health for several years, particularly since the death of her husband a little over five years ago. She has two surviving sisters, Mrs McLaren at Carlton Place, Ontario and Mrs J.W, Buchanan at Pilot Mound Manitoba ;;;;;;;; ALBERTA DEATH REGISTER Name: Floria Moffatt Gender: Female Death Date: 13 Jan 1932 Death Place: Claresholm, Alberta, Canada Registration Number: 401-095	McLean, Flora (I23845)

Ottawa Citizen - February 1, 1937 - Mrs. Albert Boulter Was Widely Known as Charity Worker

Mrs. Albert Boulter, sister of Hon. George Bryson and widely known throughout Canada for her charitable work and her benevolence to many societies, died this morning at her home in Fort Coulonge. She was in her 83rd year.

Although she had been ailing for more than three weeks, her passing came suddenly and will cause widespread regret in the Ottawa Valley, where her many years of helpful work will ever be remembered.

Born in Fort Coulonge, Que., Jennie Bryson, was a daughter of the late Hon. George Bryson and his wife, the former Robina Cobb, who came to Canada from Scotland in 1821. She had resided in Fort Coulonge all her life.

She was educated at Butte House, Montreal, and her marriage took place in 1896 to Albert Boulter, who predeceased her in 1900.

In memory of her late husband, she endowed a home in Jhansi, India, under the late Dr. Wilkie, and also another home for lepers, which was also set up in India.

Mrs. Boulter was a keen church worker and through her very active life her church was her main interest and she took an active part in the various organizations of St. Andrew's Presbyterian church, Fort Coulonge, of which she was a life member.

Her unselfishness and devotion to the societies with which she was actively engaged, will be sorely missed by those with whom she came in contact, her generosity and benevolence having endeared her in the hearts of many.

She was a life member of the Young Women's Christian Association, the Red Cross Society and the Bronson Memorial Home, Ottawa, and also of the Women's Missionary Society of the Presbyterian Church in Canada. She was also interested in the Salvation Army and was a great supporter of the Rosamond hospital, Almonte, Ont.

The funeral service will be held at her late home in Fort Coulonge, Que., on Thursday afternoon and interment will take place in Fort Coulonge cemetery.

Surviving in addition to her brother, Hon. George Bryson, MLC for Inkerman, are four nieces, Mrs. J.H. Francis, Indian Head, Saskatchewan; Mrs. Owen C. Toller, 221 Cobourg Street, Ottawa; Mrs. Gordon Berry and Miss Ethel Berry, both of Montreal, and a nephew, George T. Bryson, of Ottawa.

The late Mrs. Boulter, who was the only sister of Hon. George Bryson, MLC, for Inkerman, was in her 83rd year, and while she had not been in the best of health for some time, her sudden passing came as a shock to her many relatives and friends.

In 1886 she married the late Albert Boulter, who predeceased her in 1900, and it was in memory of her late husband that she had built the hospital in India and that she also established another home for lepers in India. She was a life member of St. Andrew's Presbyterian church at Fort Coulonge, also a member of the Ladies Aid on the WMS.

Among the many floral tributes received were wreaths from the Women's Missionary Society of St. Andrew's Presbyterian church at Fort Coulonge; the Ladies Aid; the Beaver Club and the Willing Workers Band of the same church, also one from the president of the Bank of Nova Scotia.

The funeral service was held from her late home at Fort Coulonge, with a private service at 10 o'clock this morning in charge of the Rev. Mr. Dann, pastor of St. Andrew's church, assisted by the Very Rev. Dr. Robert Johnston and the Rev. Major Logan-Veneta, MC. At the service held at 2 pm, the Rev. Dann, assisted by Rev.

Ottawa Citizen - February 21, 1942 - George J. Bryson, Prominent Citizen, Passes in Capital - Widely Known Member of Ottawa Valley Family Dies After Long Illness

George J. Bryson, a member of a prominently known Ottawa Valley family, died at his home, 300 Cooper Street, this morning at the age of 64 years. Mr. Bryson, who had been in indifferent health for two years, was confined to bed for the past six months.

A son of the late John Bryson, a former member of Parliament for Pontiac, and of Mary C. Bryson, he was born at Fort Coulonge in November, 1877, and spent the earlier part of his life there, having been engaged in the lumbering business with his father.

Coming to Ottawa 40 years ago after having received his education in Lennoxville and Belleville, he was a keen sportsman and athlete. Football, lacrosse and hockey were his favorite sports, and after his playing days were over, he followed with enthusiasm the fortunes of the old Silver Seven hockey team, the Capital Lacrosse Club, and the Ottawa Rough Riders Football Club. He was a member of the executive of the latter club.

While in Ottawa, Mr. Bryson looked after the lumbering interests of the lumber company which bore his father's name, and was also engaged in real estate operations. He had a host pf friends both in the Capital and throughout the Ottawa Valley.

Mr. Bryson was the only surviving charter member of the Laurentian Club. Prominent in social and fraternal organizations, he was a member of the Royal Ottawa Golf Club, the Rideau Club and Country Club. He worshipped at St. Andrew's Presbyterian church.

His passing will be widely mourned by hundreds of residents of Ottawa and district who were aided by his charitable contributions. Mr. Bryson went about his philanthropic work quietly and his kindly acts won him many friends.

Surviving are his widow; two aunts, Mrs. James W. Hennessy and Mrs. A.H. Leggo, both of Fort Coulonge, Que., and two step-sisters, Mrs. Gordon Berry and Miss Ethel Bryson, both of Montreal.

The funeral will be held from the parlors of George H. Rogers, Limited, 172 Elgin Street, to Fort Coulonge, for burial. The date and time have not yet been arranged.

Ottawa Citizen - May 10, 1937 - Bryson

At Spruceholm, Fort Coulonge on Saturday, May 8, 1937, George Bryson, MLC, in his 85th year. Funeral from his late residence on Tuesday afternoon, May 11 at 2 pm (standard time). Interment in Fort Coulonge cemetery.

Ottawa Citizen - May 10, 1937 - Hon. Geo. Bryson, Noted Canadian Figure, Dies; Lumberman and Banker

Dean of the legislative council of Quebec, of which body he had been an honored member for half a century. Hon. George Bryson passed away Saturday at his residence, Spruceholm, Fort Coulonge, Quebec. The noted politician and businessman and outstanding citizen, not only of his native community or province, but of Canada, died in his 85th year. He was of a very philanthropic nature and made many contributions, not only to his own church, but to many other churches throughout the district. At all times he took a keen and active interest in the affairs of the Presbyterian Church, with which he had been connected since childhood. His passing will undoubtedly be the cause of keen regret by all who knew him.

He was not only a public servant of single ability, but also a keen businessman and at various times in his life was connected with many of the important commercial concerns in the Dominion. His business acumen was of the highest order and his advice on matters of moment was frequently sought by those high in the mercantile world.

Mr. Bryson was a true Quebecer, a man whose sympathies were strong toward both races in his native province. It was frequently stated by his colleagues in the legislative council, in which he served under five sovereigns, 11 lieutenants-governor and ten prime ministers, that he was responsible in no small measure for the warm feeling of cordiality which radiates through the Upper Chamber.

When he celebrated his 50th anniversary as a member of the council in November of last year, Hon. Hector Laferte, in a statement in the Upper House at that time, said that it was a remarkable event, not only in Quebec, but in Canada, and perhaps the whole empire. He said that it certainly falls to the lot of a few men to spend a lifetime in one legislative body.

In 1931 he was sworn in as minister without portfolio in the Tachereau administration, a post he held until 1934 when he resigned. He was chosen to represent the English minority in Quebec.

The last of the second generation of Bryson's on the Upper Ottawa, George Bryson was born on the Bryson farm at Fort Coulonge on July 20, 1852, the son of George Bryson of Paisley, Scotland and his wife, Robina Cobb of Glasgow, Scotland, both of whom had emigrated to Lanark County, Ontario in 1821. He received his primary education at Fort Coulonge, later attending colleges in Toronto and Montreal.

Following his graduation from college, he entered the lumber business with his brother, the late John Bryson, MP under the firm name of J. and G. Bryson. The lumber business was not entirely new to this young man, his father having made a notable contribution to that industry for many years previous. In 1909, he became a director of the Fraser-Bryson Company.

In banking circles he was an esteemed figure. His father was one of the founders of the Bank of Ottawa at the time of it's inception.. During it's early days this bank was known as the 'Lumberman's Bank' for the reason that four of its early directors were directly identified with the lumbering business, while others had direct interests in that line.

At the time of the merger of the Bank of Ottawa and the Bank of Nova Scotia in 1919, Hon. Mr. Bryson was its president, an office which he held from 1914. During the time he was president the bank made rapid strides, and at the time of the merger there were branch offices across Canada. Following the merger, Mr. Bryson was nominated to the office of director of the Bank of Nova Scotia, an office which he filled with honor during the balance of his life.

In 1887 he was appointed to the legislative council, a body upon which his father had served with distinction for many years. Mr. Bryson Sr. was a Liberal member in politics. His son was a Liberal and throughout his entire lifetime was an ardent and worthy supporter of the party.

In church circles, coming as he did from a long line of Presbyterians, his work was well-known. He gave generously of his time and talents to the many demands made upon him for charitable work and supported freely his home church, St. Andrew's, Fort Coulonge. Local politics also proved of great interest to Mr. Bryson, and he was a former mayor of Mansfield and Pontefract.

He married the late Helen Craig of Glen Walter, Ontario in 1875. Her father, James Craig, represented Glengarry County in the Ontario legislature at the time of Confederation. She predeceased him in 1933. Both Mr. and Mrs. Bryson enjoyed the utmost popularity not only in their own community, but wherever they were known.

He is survived by two daughters, Mrs. J.H. Francis of Indian Head, Sask, and Mrs. Owen C. Toller of Ottawa. A sister, Mrs. Albert Boulter, of Fort Coulonge, died in February. He is also survived by thirteen grandchildren; Miss Helen Cameron, who lived with Hon. Mr. Bryson at Fort Coulonge, J.B. Francis, Indian Head, Mrs. Curtis Bogart, Noranda, Miss Jean Moore, Master Bryson Moore, Mrs. Fred Bingham, Mrs. Arthur Henry Smith, Miss Nora Bryson, Master George Bryson, Miss Jean Bryson, Master George Toller, Master Eric Toller and Miss Joan Toller, all of Ottawa, one great-grandchild, Miss June Bingham, Ottawa and a son-in-law, Owen C. Toller of Ottawa.

The funeral will take place at 2 pm Tuesday to St. Andrew's Church, Fort Coulonge, and burial will be in the family plot there.

He was a keen sportsman and took great delight in hunting and fishing. He was an expert angler and whenever possible took the opportunity of going away with a few friends on a fishing trip. Another major interest in his life the Ottawa River Forest Protective Association, an organization which he served for many years as a director.

Ottawa Citizen - November 13, 1914 - Mr. William Madden

Again the Angel of Death has visited Ramsay Township, this time has claimed Mr. William Richard Madden, who passed away very peacefully at his home on Saturday evening at five o'clock. The deceased was the eldest son of the late Mr. John Madden, one of the pioneers of the township, who passed from our midst twenty-three years ago. William remained on the homestead. Thirty-three years ago, he married Miss Margaret Powell of Arnprior and to them eight children were born, seven girls and one boy, who is the youngest. They are Mrs. William Dillon, Braeside, Mrs. Frank O'Brien, Carleton Place, Margaret, Winnifred, Laura and William John, at home, Etta of the N. Bawlf Grain Exchange, Winnipeg, Manitoba and Maude of the Pembroke Public School. He is survived by all these and his little niece, Marjorie, also three sisters, Mrs. Nicholas Bawlf, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Mrs. Ellen Enright, Tacoma, Washington and Mrs. Mary McKay, Seattle, Washington. His only brother, Timothy, of Grand Rapids, Michigan, predeceased him thirteen years ago.

The late Mr. Madden was subject to paralytic strokes and had been ailing for about a year. The third one came upon him Wednesday afternoon, and for three days he rallied "until the golden gates were opened and a gentle voice said 'Come'." He bore his long suffering very patiently and his demise at the age of sixty-seven is mourned by all who knew him, for he was a kind and loving husband and father, a true friend and a good neighbor.

His funeral, which was largely attended, took place from his late residence, 12th Line of Ramsay, to St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church, Almonte on Tuesday morning at 8 o'clock, thence to the ninth line cemetery. The pallbearers were Messrs. James Galvin, Ed Kennedy, Patrick Kelly, William O'Brien, George O'Brien and Robert Powell. Mrs. Madden and family have the deepest sympathy of all in their sad bereavement.

Our dear father, grandfather, and great-grandfather was called to his heavenly home on April 29th, 2015 following a ten year battle with cancer.
Jim was born in Pontiac, Michigan on October 10, 1930 to Arthur and Marie (Wallace) Leach. He served as an ordained clergyman in the United Methodist Church for 51 years until his retirement in 2005. Jim served in churches in Kalamazoo, Grand Rapids, and Big Rapids Michigan as well as in Lake Placid, Florida. During the course of his career he also served as chaplain and director of Goodwill Industries in Florida and executive director of Upper Pinellas Association for Retarded Citizens (UPARC). In 2011 he relocated to Salt Lake City, Utah to continue his fight with cancer with support from the cancer program at Intermountain Medical Center and enjoyed four additional unexpected high quality years with reasonable health and vitality. He attended Our Saviour's Lutheran Church in Salt Lake City where he received much support and wonderful friendships, proclaiming his time singing with the choir to be one of his greatest pleasures.
Jim's family was the love and joy of his life. He experienced wonderful family adventures on annual summer vacations at his cottage in northern Michigan in the 1960's and 1970's, and continued his hobbies of boating and fishing after relocating to Florida. He was a licensed private pilot and enjoyed hunting, reading, and traveling in all 50 states as well as overseas. After graduating from Southeastern High School in Detroit, Michigan, he earned a B.A. degree from Olivet University in Kankakee, IL, and an MTh degree from Garrett Theological Seminary at Northwestern University in Evanston, IL.

He was preceded in death by his parents, his wife Barbara Leach, his sister Ruth Leach, brother Donald Leach, daughter Carol Simpson, and grandchild John Wall.
Jim was well loved and appreciated by many people. His love of God and service to others brought an extra measure of light to this world and he will be greatly missed.

Grandmother Alberta Moffatt's family purchased the family farm in 1793, so that is a very long time ago. Generations of family were buried in the church cemetery. The farm owner family name changed over time as my great great grandfather has no make heirs so left the farm to a nephew who he was very fond of, hence the Smith family name on the farm when my grandmother and her siblings were raised there.

CLARESHOLM'S FIRST MARRIED WOMAN RESIDENT, Mrs Wm MOFFAT DEAD
The hand of Father Time waved "finis" on thelife of Mrs William Moffatt shortly after the noon hour on Wednesday. She had been a resident of Claresholm for nearly 30 years, coming here in 1902, and was the first married woman to settle in the town of Claresholm.

The late Mrs Moffatt was born at Carlton Place, May 2 1856 and her maiden name was Flora McLean. At the age of eighteen years she and her husband, the late William Moffat, were married and to them were born seven children, four daughters and three sons. All but one daughter, Mrs L.A. Whitten of Winnipeg, survive. The children living are:
Mrs W.R. Thompson of Calgary
Mrs H.B. Tilden of Claresholm
Mrs Alfred Dickson of Calgary
J.E. Moffat
R.E. Moffat
W.G. Moffat all of Claresholm, AB

In the year 1887 Mr & Mrs Moffat and their family of small children joined the western migration that followed the close of the North West Rebellion and settled at Pilot Mound, Manitoba, where they remained till moving to Claresholm in 1902. When they came here there was no town and Mr Moffatt opened up a lumber yard to supply the building requirements of the new settlers then coming in from all parts of the country. At the beginning mail was taken out to the Leeds ranch, but soon Mr Moffattt received the appointment of first postmaster in Claresholm.

The United Church was crowded to accommodate the many friends who attended the funeral Friday afternoon. The casket and the alter were literally banked with wreaths and sprays of beautiful flowers, the tributes of a wide circle of admiring and sympathetic friends.
Rev R.W. Dalgleish was assisted in the services by Rev H.A. Rowe of Granum and Rev J.W, Kidd of Okotoks, a former pastor of the Presbyterian church here before the days of the union and a native of both Mr & Mrs Moffat's home town in Ontario, Carlton Place. He spoke of his long association with the family and offered tribute to the worthy life of the departed. Mr Dalgliesh likened the mature life of the deceased to a spiral in time that takes us back to the childhood beginnings, but with a compensation childhood fails to recognize or appreciate.

The full choir was in attendance, with Mrs A Laurie at the organ, and the hymns were favorites of Mrs Moffatt.

Mr & Mrs Moffatt of Champion, G Moir of Barons, Mrs Thompson of Calgary, Mrs Percy Russell of Armada and Mr & Mrs Hay of Calgary, were among those here for the funeral services.

The pallbearers were all early settlers here, Wm Knight, H.O. Haslam, K.C.; Geo Simpso; W.C. Miller; T.A. Murray; and C.E. Tillotson. Geo W Ringrose had charge of the funeral arrangements and interment was made in the Claresholm cemetery.

Mrs Moffatt had been in frail health for several years, particularly since the death of her husband a little over five years ago.

She has two surviving sisters, Mrs McLaren at Carlton Place, Ontario and Mrs J.W, Buchanan at Pilot Mound Manitoba
