James Stanfield

Notes


47. Edith* (Edythe) Frances Stanfield

Baptismal certificate shows "Edith Frances" but she went by "Edythe" later in life.


Webster* Meerks Watson

The name Webster Meerks is derived from two sides of the family. On the Watson side, the Meerks name comes from the grandmother, who was mistakenly assumed to be Jane Meerks (see the note under her correct name "Jane Marks"). The given name of Webster comes from his mother's side. Her parents, Samuel Webster and Amelie Desjardins had 2 sons and 6 daughters. The youngest son William died young from drowning in a well. It is presumed that the oldest, Peter, died before getting married since "the girls in the family were asked to name a boy "Webster" in order to keep the family name alive.

Lived in Town of Mount Royal, Quebec, prior to Charles' death and then moved to Islington, Ontario

Clarkson Stanfield) were both born in Kavieng, New Ireland, Papua New Guinea. (source: Anne Peters)
