I leave to my daughter, Hannah Weeks, when of lawful age, one bed with the furniture thereunto belonging, her mother's wearing cloaths, all my pewter, chest with draws and the kittle. I direct my executors by the first day of May next to sell my dwelling house, and all my lands, and personal estate as soon as they can and pay my debts there from, and what remains to let out on interest till my three sons come to lawful age. To my said sons, namely amos, John and Lewis, said money equally divided, only to my son Amos ¹5 the most. I constitute my trusty friends, Joseph Webster and Robert Bostwick, executors.

Witnesses, Jonathan Weeks, Zephaniah Miller, "shoemaker" Sept 12 1774 Proved Oct 3 1774 *** Some earlier research I found on Rootsweb had an Ahnentafel with the following info. I have not been able to verify any of this data, nor do I accept it as 'fact' or determine that these names are or could be our ancestors. It serves merely as a starting point because of the wills, time frame for when GGG grandfather Amos arrived in Canada. Also IGI mentions a Jonathan Weeks and Anna Miller with Son Amos - so again a starting point to see where it leads. As yet I am no further ahead in determining a link to our ancestors.

| 666 | (Research):I confirmed ( strong probability ) Amos Weeks was the Father of Joseph Weeks, Daniel Weeks, Amos Weeks Jr. when I located the Land documents that went to Daniel (eldest son) as heir upon Amos Weeks Sr. death by drowning. Daniel Weeks soon sold the parcel of land to his younger brother Amos Weeks Jr. There were also photos of Daniel Miller Weeks in the family collection in Ontario. I have not been able to link a possible brother Cyrus or Silas and Peter Weeks to this Family I have not found Amos Weeks Sr. wife's maiden name or christian names. One possiblility would be the name Rhoda as Joseph called his first child Rhoda and also Joseph's son Amos Weeks named his first child and daughter Rhoda | Weeks, Amos Sr. (I142)

LOCAL BARBER OMAR WEEKS DIES AT 71 Source: The Chilliwack Progress - Wed., Dec. 1, 1954; page 5 One of Chilliwack's pioneer residents and one of the first barbers in town, Omar Amos Weeks, 426 Mary Street, collapsed Friday and died in Chilliwack General Hospital. He was in his 71st yar. Mr Weeks was born November 25, 1894, at Tillsonburg, Ontario. He had lived in B.C. for 41 years. He was a familiar figure to many who visited his barber shop on Yale road west and well known for his various club activities. He was an active member of the Oddfellows. Mr. Weeks belonged to Chilliwack Lawn Bowling club and was keen on the sport. He contributed press reports on the club's activiites for some time. Surviving are two daughters, Mrs. T. M.

Omar Amos Weeks 1954, Nov. 26; age 69 Chilliwack, B.C., Canada Reg # 1954-09-011685 B.C. Archives # B13222, GSU Microfilm # 2032968 COMMUNITY PROJECTS - CHILLIWACK PROGRESS NEWSPAPER - MARCH 30, 1949 OMAR A. WEEKS ...... barber Pay as you go is the unwritten motto of a man who has carried on a successful business in Chilliwack for more than 38 years. "This not only applies to individuals but also to governments. If we keep abreast of financial and moral obligations the rest of life takes care of itself." Briefly stated, this is the philosophy of O. A. Weeks: barber, bowler, bicyclist. At 64, Omar - known to many as simply "O.A." claims he is still too young to use the sit-down type of barbering adopted by many shops. He was born in Tillsonburg, a small Ontario town which has grown to be ... a small Ontario town. "Nothing ever grows in Ontario," says Mr. Weeks. "It's too cold." "Sure I like the West," he says convincingly. "I like the way young people get out on their own and progress. They make mistakes but they profit by them. and," says Omar wryly, "they don't elect Conservative governments." Why does a man become a barber? Omar Weeks was born and spent his early youth on a homestead farm carved from the Ontario timberland. The few hours away from the rigors of clearing land, plowing and tending stock, he spent in or near the town's only four -chair barber shop. Here in the nostalgic atmosphere of perfumed hair off and singed moustaches was the center of masculine gossip, the dispensary of travelled eloquence and harbingers of fascinating monologue. Mr. Weeks had few regrets when he turned from strenuous agrarian labor to an apprenticeship in the four-chair shop. His conversations with travelled customers soon filled his imagination with the opportunities of the West. Lock, stock and scissors he moved to New Westminster. That was 1910. a year later he caught the steamer for Chilliwack. Omar's shop - the second tonsorial parlor in Chilliwack - consisted of two chairs and a thriving business. Gasoline lamps hung hissing from the ceiling and hand clippers cut their labourious way over the gnarled pates of loggers, homesteaders and ranchers, and the conversation was the most painless part of the operation. There were never any moustache cups in Omar's shop, despite the fact they were still a fashion necessity for gentlemen during the early 20th century. "O.A." had definite ideas about moustache cups. As a matter of fact he claims without hesitation to be one of the instigators of the downfall of barber shop ceramics. Twenty years ago Mr. Weeks' business reached the four-chair stage and his establishement was twice as large as it is today. Then came the depression. Two months ago his shop - still in the Hart block where it was originally located - lost its third chair, an unused reminder of busier days. Memories of Omar Weeks, from Granddaughter Myrna Peacock, 2003. My grandfather was always a hard worker. When we were around him, he was not exactly a happy go lucky fellow, but rather serious to we his grandchildren. He was loving, but also stern, as was Grandmother Margaret too. Grampa Omar always wore a wig; his barbershop was open 6 days a week. He never owned an automobile, but rode his bicycle everywhere. His pattern for the week was Monday to Saturday, go to his barbershop and open early and close late. On Sundays, he and his wife Margaret would attend the United Church morning service. After his lunch he would cycle to the local hospital where he voluneered his barbering services to those that were hospitalized - haircuts and shaves. | Weeks, Omar Amos (I111)

Born March 13, 1900 at Tillsonburg, Ontario, her parents, Roxy and Ira Weeks and five children travelled out west in 1904 by ox-cart to the Bulwark District east of Castor, where they took up farming. Two more children were born into the family after settling in Alberta. In 1911, their mother became ill and died at the age of 35 years, leaving seven children and their father to carry on. One sister Elsie age 16 and one brother George, age 11 died in 1922. Her Dad died in 1951 and one sister Clara in 1957. Pearl received her schooling for the few years she was able to attend at Knob Hill School. In 1917, she was united in marriage to Milton Strome and lived on a farm North of Castor. To this union were born 14 children, six boys and 8 girls. Later in 1947 they moved to a farm South of Castor and finally into Castor in 1960 when her husband's health was failing and he could no longer farm. Pearl did a lot of sewing, making clothes for the kids and quilts for the beds, and she could always be heard singing her favorite hymns while she was sewing. She loved putting quilts together which she did right up until her last year and even though she had little spare time she always read her Bible and kept in touch by sending cards and letters to relatives far away. She liked canning, baking and cooking and she lived to have folks come and join the family at meal time. Her greatest joy possible, was her family, relatives and host of friends visiting her in her home, which she always enjoyed. Predeceased by her husband Milton in 1968, one son Henry in 1952, one grandson Robert in 1978 and a son Walter in 1979, Pearl is survived by four sons; Clarence, Ernest and Daniel (Elda) all of Castor and Wesley (Marjorie) of Red Deer. eight daughters, Mrs Mary Ann (Art) Pedersen of Lacombe, Mrs Hazel (John) Annett of Fleet, Elsina of Castor, Mrs Dora (Dan) Morasch of Halkirk, Mrs Violet (Graham) Clark of Vancouver, Mrs Susanna (Jim) Bedson of Brownfield, Mrs Beatrice (Vic) Tschritter of Ardrossen and Mrs Ruby (Dave) Lopetinsky of Edmonton, 50 grandchildren and 56 great grandchildren. She is also survived by two brothers - Ross of Stettler and Omar of Kelowna, B.C., one sister Hazel Wilkie of Calgary and numerous nieces, nephews and many other relatives and friends. Funeral services were conducted at 3 pm onTuesday July 28, 1987 in the Castor Community Hall with Rev.Lance Duncalfe officiating. Interment followed in the Castor Cemetery.

Some time ago, while working in the woods, the deceased received a slight scratch on the right wrist, Nothing was thought of it until the Sunday previous to his death, when he became ill and the arm began to swell. Blood poisoning, ensued which resulted in death a week later. Mr Weeks was 71 years old the Saturday previous to his death. He was the son of the late Joseph Weeks of Dereham and was the eldest of a family of seven boys. He was born in Charlotteville. Over sixty years ago he came with his father to the old homestead on the 9th concession of Dereham, the road in to the wood farm being followed by blazed trees. Forty-six years ago he married Miss Adeliza James, whose father lived on the adjoining farm. After their marriage they settled on the farm in Middleton where Mr. Weeks resided until his death. Twelve years ago his wife died and he afterwards married Mrs. Nicholas Stillwell of Eden, who survives him. The deceased was a Conservative in politics and had been a member of the Methodist Church 23 years. The funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon and was very largely attended. The services were conducted by the Rev. Dr. Brethour assisted by the Revs. Cuthbert and Weaver of Eden. The pallbearers were Amos, Joseph, Walter and Isaac Weeks, brothers of the deceased, and Ransom and Andrew Weeks, nephews. The interment was made at the town cemetery. The following from the members of the Trustee Board of the Methodist Church was read by Dr. Brethour at the funeral. Resolutions of Condolence We the members of the Trustee Board and of the Quarterly Official Board of the Methodist Church, Tillsonburg were deeply pained on hearing of the decease of our late brother and fellow worker, John Weeks. He had gone in and out amongst us as a member of the Church for twenty-three years, and for twenty-two years he has been an interested, active and faithful worker on the Trustee Board of our Church. He was always present at the Board meetings when it was possible to be there. His matured and good judgement was always reliable and helpful. In the Providence of God our brother Weeks was the first member of our Church and Board to be taken from us in the new year and new century, thereby leaving a vacancy in our ranks not easily filled. We herewith place on record the high esteem in which we held the memory and life of Brother Weeks, and gratefully recognize his consecration to Jesus Christ, his Master and ours, and his unswerving loyalty to the Methodist Church of which he was for so many years an approved and honored member and Trustee. We tender to Mrs. Weeks this heartfelt expression of our regard and esteem for her late beloved husband and humbly pray our Heavenly Father to sustain and comfort her in this time of great trial through which Divine Providence has called her to pass. Signed in behalf of the Board, D. L. Brethour, Chairman J. A. Caverhill, Sec. Official Board Thos. T. Brown, Sec. Trustee Board Tillsonburg, Jan. 14, 1901 Notes from Margaret Rouse 2005 Driving West of # 19 road, a little hill on the right, a house that was John Weeks land. Andrew Weeks lived in that house, he passed away in 1939. Opposite the land, on the East of # 19, was Walter Weeks land. | Weeks, John (I71)

The most popular and enduring of the female names throughout Europe. It was a popular name at the time of Christ; there was Mary Magdala, Mary - the mother of James etc. Its popularity in later centuries was due to the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus. It was a common Christian name at first, witness several early Christian saints; then for several hundred years the name of the Mother of God was considered too holy to be used. It was not until the 12th century that it gradually came to be used throughout Europe and grew in popularity. Many other female names are derived from 'Mary' Nancy - Its origins are uncertain but it first emerged as a familiar form of 'Ann'; then in the USA became an independent name. | Westbrook, Mary Nancy (I108)

I have not been able to confirm this as no monument to reveal his presence there; but one for Polly Ann (Hall) Westbrook his wife. Cemetery records mention his name but no date of burial nor specific location; merely his name but no other data available. Will pursue Michigan records in 2010 for possible death/burial in that area thus Benjamin's name would be present to confirm the family tree per se. In the 1901 Cdn census, Polly Ann (Hall) Westbrook is a widow, thus the time frame for Benjamin's death would be between the years of 1880-1900 | Westbrook, Benjamin (I109)
