1401 Birth Source: OPR Aberdour 401 Births 1811
" Nov. 16 Born to Ms William Dick Banks & Isabel Wilkie, his spouse a son - John"


Source for this family is Andrew S. Bowman and OPR, Aberdour/Kinglassie

2nd source is from Alta Pennington Dick, daughter in law, as Margaret Kay Dick recounted her memories.

"The John Dick family in the United States, landed in Boston, MA in the spring of 1866. They crossed the Ocean in a sailing vessel and were six weeks in crossing; the ship was driven from its course in a fierce storm which took them into the Bay of Biscay. Walter Dick's fourth birthday occurred (Mar 20th) while they were crossing and the Captain invited him to eat dinner with him but called him "Paddy", which made him spunky and Sandy (A.K.Dick) ate dinner with the Captain instead.
Coming in a sailing vessel enabled them to bring many of their household effects with them; and as they had become acquainted with many sea captains who boarded with Aunties - Anna Law and Belle Kay, sisters of Mother Dick, who kept an inn in London on Tower Hill. They came by ship. The family had moved to London on account of reverses suffered from the loss of money. James Finley, a brother-in-law, and Robert Finley, his son, forged a note on Father Dick, by which he obtained quite a sum of money, enough to cause them to leave Milldeans, their home, and go to London where Father Dick worked for a wine merchant and William Dick, his oldest son, kept books for the firm. William was 14 at this time and had a voice. He and his sister, Agnes Blythe Dick, often played together, she playing the piano. Their mother also played the piano and sang. She had been educated at boarding school. Robert Kay Dick, the second son, was not as serious minded, thought more of having fun and playing jokes. Isabella Dick, the second Daughter, was called 'Easy', a jolly, fun loving girl. John Dick, the third son, loved music and had a beautiful voice, also a beautiful character. He died at twenty-two years. James Dick, fourth son, was a serious young man, had a good bass voice but was too timid to use it. Alexander Robertson Dick, 5th son, was the finest one of them all, acting as second mother at different times to many of them, always willing to go and help out, although in the later years his hearing became a hindrance and made him timid. He also loved music and lead the choir for a number of years. William used to jokingly liken him to 'Andre Mauckum', an old choir leader in Scotland. Walter Scott Dick, the 6th son, was a fine upstanding man, good looking and good acting. He taught school for a number of years, everyone liked Walter. Maggie Kay Dick, the 3rd daughter, was spared to be a help to Mother Dick in her declining years. Mother Dick's older sister, Auntie Law, kept a little shop. She and Aunt Bella Kay took an 'Inn' where sea captains boarded. They did a thriving business for awhile. Auntie Law had married Robert Law, a Sea Captain, and settled in London a few years before the Dick family went there. Aunt Bell Kay made her home there. Robert law died after he and Aunt had been married eight years. The younger Dick children went to school in London, all except Walter and Maggie. Maggie had a cleft palate and never could talk very plain.

After landing in Boston, the family came to St. Charles, MO, where
they lived for two years, coming to Jasper Co., MO in 1868. They landed at Peter Orrs, he and his wife, Agnes (Shanks Thom) Orrs, being Scotch, welcomed them as relatives and made them feel at home at their farm on North Fork near Medoc, MO., where was formed a friendship which lasted during the lives of both families.

Father John Dick died soon after coming here. This part of Missouri was full of malaria at that time, and the change, with too strenuous work and worry and insufficient and unsuitable food did their work. The family had chills, at one time all were down but Sandy, who ministered to the rest. Father Dick had a congestive chill, he died the next fall after coming to Medoc (1869).



Father John Dick, son of William Dick and Isabella (Wilkie) Dick, was born about 1813, at Croftsgairy, near Aberdour, Feleshire (sic) Fifeshire, Scotland. He married Margaret Kay Dick of the parish of Markwich - sic- Markinch, February 1st, 1848, at Balhernie Mills, Fefershire, Scotland by Rev. Johnston, Minister.

Emigrated to USA
Settled in Vincennes, Indiana, then in Illinois. Info from Marg. Kay via daughter in law Alta Dick, Unconfirmed as factual, as can't find the marriage in IGI, but given other stories of a move to London by the family - and Margaret's relis being there, there is the birth of a child Jemima Jessie to a James Dick and a Williamina in 1836 in Southwark.

Immigration:
Anne's first arrival was in September 1912 - to Nova Scotia to join her husband Dave - working in the Springhill Mines
I'm not sure of all the details but a combination of their Daughter Nettie's (Janet) poor health and perhaps Anne's homesickness, the miners Strike in Springhill - a decision was made to return to Scotland in April 1914
Shortly after arriving back 'home' War broke out, Grampa was mining once again as well as loading the ships coming to the Firth of Forth. Conditions were not better at 'home' like Anne had remembered or hoped - Grampa was very unhappy here and couldn't wait to return to Canada. In the meantime, Grampa Dave's Sister - Jennie (Janet) had migrated to Canada - to Alberta - Garden Plains District. - married James (Jim) Easton
Eventually Anne, Dave, Nettie & Andrew returned to Canada - to Garden Plains and shortly afterwards Castor. Grampa came early in 1920 but Gramma was unable to join him until October of 1920, aboard the ship Pretoria
While Grampa Dave was enroute back to Canada, their 3rd child - Son John died of whooping cough

Obituary from Castor Advance Paper
Death came as a release from a long illness to Mrs. David Wilkie, on Saturday morning. Daughter of Mr. & Mrs. John Scott, Ann Scott (Wilkie) was born February 9, 1877*, in the parish of Tranent, County of Haddington, near Edinburgh, Scotland, and was one of nine children. She leaves to mourn her loss, her loving husband, David; one son, Andrew; three grandchildren, Allan, Richard and Heather Wilkie and two great-grandchildren Deborah and Kevin Wilkie. One daughter and a son predeceased her. She also leaves a brother and three sisters in Scotland.

In 1912 Mr. and Mrs. Wilkie moved from Scotland to Nova Scotia, returning to Scotland in 1914, where they remained until after the First World War. In the fall of 1921, they again came to Canada , settling in the Garden Plains district of AB. A few years later they came to Castor, where they have since resided.

Haven't found David since 1891 Census - there are some strong possibilities in the USA but without some clues as to parents names, children cannot identify for sure they are 'this David'.

April 03, 2011 I feel strongly that some of the immigration names I have found for a David Wilkie could well be one of 'ours' as yesterday I found Robert Wilkie (David's brother) - married to Marion Drysdale, and members of their families living in Salineville Ohio, with one file from ancestry.ca saying Robert's son David - married to Ann Cunninham died in 1976 in Allegheny Pennsylvania. SSN for son David verifies that date. hw

November 2013; continued to look for David Wilkie, birth 1872 Orwell, Kinross, Scotland; No luck on ancestry, ScotlandsPeople of familysearch.org. Will try to follow some David Wilkies and study their / his children naming patterns to see if I can spot a close match hw

A Wilkie researcher has contacted me, shared some info and also had a family tree on ancestry.ca
One of her statements is that a David Wilkie - Son of John Wilkie & Janet Stevenson - died Jul 25 1831 in Aberdour Fife Scotland
More research required by me to prove that this David Wilkie - is my Great Great Great Grandfather Robert Wilkie's twin brother
Is it possible that David Wilkie died the same day as my Great Great Great grandfather Robert? same place too - like Aberdour Fife Scotland?

** Andrew would be the son born to Andrew Wilkie & Mary Sharkey, both deceased soon after his birth, then he lost his stepmother or adopted mother Janet in 1913.
According to Janet (Laing) Wilkie's death certificate, her Father and Andrew's grandfather was also deceased by 1913.

*There is a strong possibility that Andrew Wilkie, Son of Andrew & Mary (Sharkey) Wilkie was raised with the Laing family until his adopted or stepmother died, then it seems I have located an Andrew Wilkie - living with William Brown Wilkie & Mary Ann McGregor - and no births of children found for this couple. hw

This couple never had a family, as none mentioned on any of the census. Considering the timeframe in which this couple lived - it seems so notable that there weren't any children and I haven't come across any births / deaths of offspring for this couple. It makes me wonder if Robert or Janet were subjected to rumours, superstitions pertaining to them - as they remained a childless couple. hw

According to the Poor List(1845) the documentation for Elizabeth Wilkie notes she (Elizabeth) had 4 brothers & 2 sisters of which 3 Brothers & one Sister were married and 1 Brother & Sister that were in service. As Elizabeth lived with Isabella & Andrew Arnot in the 1840s, that is one known marriage, Charles probably was married to Agnes Paton re the birth dates of their children, subsequently it appears John was married to Barbara Hay, living in England and William Dick Wilkie was married to Margaret Fraser.

I have found 2 possible marriages for Janet Wilkie, Daughter of Robert Wilkie & Christian Paul.

a) July 25, 1834, Contracted David Hay, Private Soldier in the 2nd Royal North British Dragoons or Scotch Greys at Present stationed in Piershill Barracks, Edinburgh and Jane Wilkie in this Parish and after regular proclamation on the 27 th currt. Witnesses were David Wilkie & John Wilkie

Argument for this marriage, Jane or Janet did have 2 brothers named David & John, the fact that David's name is first I would think he was the eldest and that isn't the case in Janet's family - John would have been 22 yrs of age and David 8 yrs old - so this leaves me pondering. Referring to the entry of the Poor List in 1845 - I don't know if that info of 4 bros, 2 sisters is accurate. Another source (IGI) states Jane's Father as David Wilkie, in which case would not be 'our Janet Wilkie' dtr of Robert Wilkie & Christian Paul

b) July 26th, Contracted to William Deans, Labourer and Janet Wilkie, both of this Parish and after regular proclamation on the 27th currt were married on 1st August by Rev Wm. Dalziel, Dunfermline. Witness was Hugh Blaik. The witness Hugh Blaik is unknown to me, but Janet sounds more like our family rather than the previous case of Jane.

Death
This entry is followed by another entry in the OPR 401/3 Deaths naming Janet Wilkie, age 22 died 23 December 1834, Wife of Wm Deans, Labourer Burnbrae. Janet was interred on 26th currt in Old Church Yard. Janet Wilkie's Father - Robert Wilkie was Farm Servant, at Burnsbrae and he died there in 1831, her Mother died there in 1834, thus seems likely Janet may have been employed here as well. This seems a closer match, but at this point I don't know where else I might find further proof to say this Janet's parents were Robert Wilkie & Christian Paul. The age is correct tho.

I continue (December 2010) to look for another Janet Wilkie, none has surfaced with any other researchers as well, so again, I am taking an educated guess at this point to say she did marry Wm Deans and subsequently died a few months later in December.

*** Note there isn't a 'child named John' or at least I haven't located one - however on the 1911 Census, Catherine states she had 10 children with 6 living and certainly the census date for 1911 was taken on 2nd April 1911 and thus Catherine wouldn't have counted Jemima's death in July 1911.

I am presuming for the time being a probability exists these may be the parents of my G G Great Grandfather Robert Wilkie. My reasons being that the dates jive and the naming pattern is familiar. Further descendants used the names of Dewar as a middle name for one of the children, suggesting that John Wilkie & Margaret Dewar may also be connected as poss. parents. Further research required to truly verify as fact however.

As of January 2011, many Wilkie researchers are still clinging to this strong probability - that John Wilkie & Janet Stevenson are indeed the Parents of Robert Wilkie married to Christian Paul,
Isabel Ann Wilkie married to James William Dick
John Wilkie & Christian Ross , then Helen Main
William Wilkie & Henrietta Aiken Philp
The sources being used are Old Parish Records, Aberdour Parish; IGI, various individual birth, marriage, death records kept by various family descendants and family stories or legends HW

However going back from John Wilkie married to Janet Stevenson, the possibilities and probabilities are many - some researchers choosing John Wilkie & Margaret Dewar, others William Wilkie & Margaret Donaldson !!! On and on goes the puzzle HW

One Birth notice is as follows from my cousin Laura Stenhouse
Extract from OPR
"Ann, Daughter to William Brown and Magdalene Butters, born May 1st 1839 and baptised Kinneston."

Data from a Linda states Ann was born in Orwell, Kinross, Scotland

Ann is on the Scottish Church Records as christened in 1839 to Parents William Brown and Magdalene Buttars. On Anne's marriage certificate in 1966, her parents are listed as William Brown and Mary Wanton, with Magdalene Buttars as witness !!!!

Since Mary and Anne Brown's marriage certificates state their Mother as Mary Brown, ms Wanton, it looked as if William and Mary Wantan had been married, even though no marriage registration can be found. There is also no marriage registration for William Brown and Magdalene Buttars.

On the 1841 census in Portmoak, William Brown and Magdalene Buttars are living with Children Anne and William. Mary Wanton / Winton is in Orwell living with her Mother and Sister, and daugher Mary Brown. It is not clear which set of parents belong to Ann, The only thing I can think of is she is Mary Wanton's daughter who gave her up to her father, William Brown, since she already had one illegitimate child - Linda Nov 2003

Family Legend by Ross Weeks and Pearl (Weeks) Strome
In the spring of 1905, Ira Weeks came from Tillsonburg, Ontario to Lacombe AB. He found work there for the winter, lived in a tar paper shack, and filed on a homestead. The next spring, his wife Roxy( ANDRESS) and five children came by CPR to join him. They lived for a month in Lacombe then put their belongings onto a wagon, hitched up the cayuses, Polly and Gin, and headed for the homestead, a 101 miles to the East.
For two nights we slept on quilts out under the stars and got to the homestead on May 08, 1906. On the way Dad had to buy a loaf of bread, costing 35 cents, a very high price in those days.
Dad had only $35.00 in his picket, no house and no well. The first thing he did the next day, he took his spade and went to draw about a quarter of a mile away and dug a shallow pit that soon filled with water so we had a temporary well. We unloaded the packing boxes and the cupboard and then set up a sort of shelter. It was just four big quilts fastened to upright poles, with a canvas over top, and we called it the "Quilt House". It stood right out on the open plain, just a little shelter for all of us and we lived in it until early winter.
To start our house, Dad dug a trench one spade-width all around a rectangle 6'x24'. Then all summer long, Mother dug the dirt out to a depth of five feet. While she was doing this Dad was busy cutting logs and hauling them from Beaver Dam Creek - 3 1/2 miles North of the homestead which was on NW 1/2-22-38-12-W4, about 6 miles NW of Bulwark. The neighbours came and helped put the logs up and the roof on. Chinking had to be done with small pieces of wood nailed over the cracks and then smeared with mud. The dirt walls were covered with rough lumber to keep them from caving in. We had just a plain dirt floor that winter.
When it came to digging the well, Dad dug while Mother pulled the dirt and mud up out of the well in a heavy bucket attached by a rope to a big windlass. It was heavy work.
It was beautiful country and we enjoyed going barefoot all summer. We had a good garden because Dad ploughed up a garden patch and we planted potatoes right in the fresh sod.
The following year, Dad bought four oxen, for which he paid $35.00 each. He had earned money by hauling freight loads of lumber and supplies from Stettler. He still had the cayuses, which he kept for many years. The little blue roan, called Polly, lived a long life for a horse, 38 years and raised many fine colts. Dad finally gave her to a neigbhouring family, the Stoffers.
Father ploughed sod for a barn and built it. He bought a roan cow from Mrs. (Maxfield) Williams who had a grocery store at Brownfield. Ross never liked the milk because to him it had a peculiar flavour. Besides the cow, we had some chickens and 2 guinea fowl.
Ross remembers an old song on the gramophone that said "J stands for Jersey City where the mosquitoes weigh a pound" and that, he says, certainly applies to the ones on the homestead. He remembers going with his father on one trip when they had to camp out for the night and sleep under the wagon. The oxen were turned loose to take comfort in a slough. The mosquitoes were so bad, that you couldn't leave your head uncovered or they would grab you by the ear or throat, and you'd have quite a battle going.
In the fall, Mother was really sick. She had pneumonia, and we though that she wasn't going to pull through, but God spared her for us. One windy night Mom and Dad carried all of us to the dug out part of the new house as they thought the Quilt House would blow away. We didn't know anything about it until the next morning. Three-day rains were a problem too, in the Quilt House, and that summer we had three of them, everything getting soaked but one big bed. For firewood we had only small brush and green wood, so it had to be kept dry somehow.
Winter 1906-07 was sure a hard winter. Six feet of snow on the level. Bitter cold. Snow came October 16 and snow was still around the bush until June 12. Mr Kelly, a neighbour, had gone to get us a load of wood as we had no coal. By the time he had the wood loaded, twas dark, the snow was deep, his team tired, it was snowing and blowing, but he stayed all night in the bush. He cut branches to keep a little fire going to keep from freezing. Next morning, he came to our place nearly blinded with smoke. He wouldn't come in the evening as he knew Dad was away to Stettler for freight. Mother gave him a good breakfast.
Next spring when the French Creek was flooding, the oldest Doering girls had a horse and buggy and were on their way to see their sister Bertha, who was working for Mr. Gorrell. The current was so high and strong that the girls were thrown into the stream and drowned. The horse broke loose and was found grazing in the coulee. Mr. Chabrier lived in a little log house near the coulee, and he showed the folks where the girls were in the creek. They were buried on a high hill on the Doering homestead. Later on in the summer, the mailman called Shortie, lost his team and mail sacks in the same creek when the water was high. He managed to swim to safety.
For the first few years, we got our mail at O'Delville, 18 miles W of our place. There was a grocery store there, where we could get our supplies. In 1909, we got our mail at Lindsville, where there was also a small store and post office. There was, also later, a post office at Lorraine, on the old Seamans place, and we have several postcards with that address.
In the summer of 1908, Knob HIll school was built, just a mile west of our place. Miss Lord was the first teacher and she boarded with the Ellis Warrens. Other teachers were Miss Pearl Howe, Mr. Purdy, and Jack Haynes.
The families that started that year to attend Knob Hill wre those of:
T.C. Gorrell (farmer): Roy Lawsen, Charlie Grover, Laura Gladys, Bert and Alice. They lived 3 miles NW of the school.
Charlie Coyne (carpenter) Cyril, Ila, Lillian, Thecia, Bernice. They lived 2 miles W. of us.
White: Eldon, Thorton, Floyd. Lived 1/2 mile East of us.
Tom Gordon: Louis, Gregory, Fay. Lived 1 mile SE.
Chabrier: Emile, Edmond, Marcel. Lived 3/4 m SE
Martin Ice: Ruth, Amry, Marjorie. Lived 1/2 m West.
Mrs Hall, Albert and Hilda.
Mrs Fred Logan: Laura, Lucy Rosie, Mabel.
Ira Weeks: Clara, Pearl, Ross, Elsie, and Hazel.
We had a good time with the neighbours. In 1909, Ross, Clara and I became janitors at the school. Ross built the fires, Clara and I did the cleaning, and generally had to split wood besides. For pay we received 5 cents a day in the summer, and 10 cents a day in the winter. When we quit, the pay went up to 25 cents a day and has kept spiralling to what it is today. Quite a difference.
We walked to school summer and winter, and didn't have many warm clothes for the cold weather. We had to spread lard on our bread instead of butter, and the Chabrier kids and Ross used to go North of our place about 2 miles on Sunday and shoot bush rabbits for food.
For entertainment, we had Box socials once in a while, or square dances. Sometimes a group would get up a big debate and try to outdo each other with logic. There were not many sports days, but on July 1st, we were given about 15 cents to spend and we had a good time on that. Maybe an orange, an ice cream cone, and 5 cents worth of all-day suckers.
T.C. Gorrell and his three boys all had homesteads in the Knob Hill district. Tom had a saw-mill and sawed the lumber for T. J. Coppock's big house, where Doug now lives and for the houe that the Gorrells lived in, in which M. K. Christiansen lived in until spring 1973. I well remember when George Sullivan worked at the saw mill and had one arm cut off. They hitched the driving team to the buggy and took off for Stettler and the doctor.
In 1908, Mother took a milk pail, several small pails and five kids, and walked 3 1/2 miles to the beaver Dam Crek to pick Saskatoons. She made three such trips and canned 40 quarts. In the summer Dad had Mr. Gorrell break thirty acres of land with the big steam engine and 14-bottom plough. The crop in 1911 was good, but frost wiped out the hopes of nearly all the neighbours. Dad's crop was not frozen and he sold it next spring for seed wheat.
In 1911, Mom's mother (Charity Sophronia) took very ill, so Mom and the four smaller children went back East (Ontario) for a visit. On the trip home, Mom became ill, lived for a month, passed away, leaving Dad with seven children. Clara was 13, I was 11, and the youngest Omar was just two. But we baked bread, and scrubbed clothes on the washboard and helped to cook and look after the family. Dad bought a windmill and a grinder and we used to grind grain for the neighbourhood at 10 cents cwt. Many were the sacks we ground. Ross was especially good at the mill.
In the fall of 1911, Ross had an accident. He jumped off the slant-roof shed on the back of the school barn, caught his foot on the top wire of the fence, and broke his elbow. He had to be taken to Calgary to have it set and as Dad didn't have that much money on hand, Dr. JJ McPherson loaned him $50.00. Ross was away three weeks at the Holy Cross Hospital, Dr. McPherson wa a very kind man.
Somebody must have complained about us to the authorities, because that fall, the police and one man came to see us. Dad was away so they looked the house over. We had just baked 14 big loaves of bread, and had a quarter of beef on the table. Someone wanted to split the family up, but Dad wouldn't hear of it.
When Dad sold his frozen grain the next year, he got only 35 cents a bushel. but he repaid Dr. McPherson. However, Dad had a loan on his homestead and because he couldn't meet his payment in 1913, he lost it and we had to move into a tent for the summer. ( The loan was taken at the time Roxy went East to see her family, also to Gorrell to clear more of the homestead, as required by the Homestead Act, then later when Roxy died, more financial troubles, poor crop) A most difficult time.
That year the CPR and CNR were both putting railways into French Coulee. Grade was built and track was laid from Coronation to Bulwark, and this was used for some years. However the track from Bulwark to Lorraine Bridge was abandoned and the bridge was removed a few years later. Crews that were working on the projects were those of Sharkey and Homes, who were camped down in the valley; Foley and Coughlin, who were up on the level, and Sandeens, who had a big steam shovel working in French Coulee.
Ross adds the following information:
Clara, who married Charlie Quaife in 1915, lived in Bulwark for quite a few years, where Charlie did blacksmithing. They moved down to Taber.
Pearl maried Milton Strome in 1917, and moved to the Castor district.
Ross married Zillah Irene Troyer.
Elsie worked for the Kishes who lived up near the river. She took an attack of appendicitis and died when she was about 17.
Hazel married Andy Wilkie, and lives in Castor. She was Matron of the Paintearth Lodge from 1968-1973.
Two brothers were born in Alberta, George and Omar.
George died when he was about 12.
Omar lives in Vancouver. He married Dorothy Dettlaff, whose family lives South of Throne.


That was our start in Sunny Alberta.

PS: Many early settlers describe the mosquitoes as being so bad in the 'early days'. The mosquitoes could be so bad, that a team of oxen would not plough, but if a farmer tried, the oxen, plough and all would just head for the sloughs. Source: The Ice Family Story

Also the bad winter of 1906-07 was the worst ever. Snow was so deep that the buildings were all buried. One could walk right over the top of the house, barn and henhouse.

Farming schedules or routines; The day would start at 3 am, and lasted until 9 am when the oxen were rested for the next shift that started at 3 pm and lasted until 9 pm. Usually 20 half mile rounds were made each day.
