• Notes

  ?b?Woodridge?/b? is located on the ?u?Ontario ?/u?side of the ?u?Ottawa River?/u? about a mile upstream from the ?u?Quyon Ferry?/u?. Its name was changed from Whetstone Point in 1898. Emma married John Wray on 24 Sept 1877 in Woodbridge Ontario. They came to Manitoba with four small children in about 1891, farming in the East Mountain District southwest of the village of Cartwright. When John died, two of their daughters were married but Emma had four children ranging in ages from 5 to 16 years old to raise. She married John Asa Baumwort on 11 Nov 1908 in Winnipeg. They relocated to a farm near Badger Manitoba until returning to Cartwright where three of Emma's children had remained with their own families. The family's story is well told in the local history book "Memories Along the Badger Revisited" (1985) page 525. Emma's death is recorded under registration number 1933-012168 in Manitoba Vital Statistics.
