5667 Rev. Henry Michael Clarke FOWLER was first married in 1891 to Catherine McCRAE who died in 1906 at Heathcote VIC. Issue of this marriage was Florence Annie Letitia FOWLER b. 1892 at Numurkah VIC (d. 1973) and Victor Henry FOWLER b. and d. 1898 at Cohuna VIC. Florence married Thomas Edgar WILLIAMS (b. 1889 at Wandiligong VIC, d. 1976 at Bright VIC) in 1913 and had issue of Henry Thomas WILLIAMS b. 1919 at Bright VIC.

West Wimmera Mail, 5 Mar 1915

The late Rev. Mr. FOWLER
Brief mention was made in our last issue to the death of the Rev. Mr. H.M.C. FOWLER, who was at Noradjuha in charge of the Methodist circuit for three years, leaving there after his marriage with Miss WALTER five or six years ago. From particulars supplied by our Noradjuha correspondent it appears that Mr. FOWLER went to bed as well as usual, but shortly afterwards was seized with violent pains in the body. It was thought at first that the seizure would pass off, but the pains became more acute. Everything was done to relieve him, word was sent to the nearest doctor, Mr. FOWLER died before the doctor arrived. At the enquiry held in the cause of death it was found that death was due to inflammation of the kidneys. The Rev. Mr. FOWLER was twice married. The son (recently married) and daughter were the issue of the first marriage, but there was no family by the second marriage.
__________
The Late Rev. Mr. FOWLER.
From the "Alpine Observer" (Bright) of February 26, we take the following report of the magisterial inquiry concerning the sudden death of the Rev. H. M. C. FOWLER:--
Bertha Alinda FOWLER deposed that the deceased, Henry Michael Clarke FOWLER was her husband and was 52 years of age. Generally he enjoyed good health; the only illness that called for the attention of a medical man was in September when the deceased had a continual bleeding of the nose. On the 20th he was in his usual state of health, and in the afternoon went to Bright to attend a tennis match. He returned home about 5 o'clock. About 10 o'clock deceased and I retired to bed, and about 12.30 he awakened me and asked me to get a lamp, as he felt ill. I gave him some brandy and water, but he kept on making a choking noise, and after bathing his face I went to Mr. STEPHENS, a neighbor for assistance, after attending him again I sent a telephone message to the doctor, who on his arrival pronounced life extinct. Herbert Ernest STEPHENS, deposed that he was next door neighbor to deceased. About 12.30 on the 21st, Mrs. FOWLER called him and said that Mr. FOWLER was very ill and she thought he was dying. Witnesses wife went to her assistance while he went to acquaint deceased son-in-law, Thomas Edward WILLIAMS.

After waking Mr. WILLIAMS witness hurried back to lend assistance. Deceased was lying in bed and making a choking noise. I was with deceased about three-quarters of an hour when he died. Dr. BENNETT arrived a few minutes after. Constable John POWER gave evidence of a formal nature. Harold Vincent BENNETT, duly qualified medical practitioner, deposed that about 1 o'clock he was called to the residence of Mr. FOWLER by telephone, but on arrival found that life was extinct. Later on that day witness made a post mortem examination of the body, and as a result formed the opinion that the cause of death was inflammation of the kidneys, and uremia resulting there from. The deputy coroner returned a verdict in accordance with the medical testimony.

Mr. FOWLER was born at Numurkah, in 1863, and was, therefore, 52 years of age. In 1884 he entered the Methodist ministry, and after being stationed in various centres, came to Wandiligong just about three years ago from Walhalla. During the term he had resided there Mr. FOWLER had gained the esteem and respect of all shades of religious belief. He took an active interest in many matters of a public nature, as far as his duties permitted, and was a constant and ardent worker in the interest of his church. These with many other estimable qualifications made the Rev. gentleman very popular, and on all sides expression of deep sympathy have been made at his untimely end.

The funeral took place at the Bright cemetery on Monday afternoon. Prior to leaving for the cemetery the remains were taken into the Methodist Church, where a service was conducted by Mr. MORSLEY, Home Missionary from Myrtleford, assisted by the Rev. W. ANDERSON (Presbyterian). There was a large attendance and the proceedings thereabouts were most impressive in character.

5672 Richard and Ann WALTER came to Canada West, (Upper Canada) against the wishes of their families in England. Ann's brother Abel MOORE, had earlier emigrated to Canada and had cleared land and built a home on land granted to him in Alma, Pilkington Township, Wellington County, Canada West. Encouraged by his success and others praising the opportunities of low cost and abundant farmland, they decided to leave England and together with their four children they sailed from Plymouth on 14 Apr 1857 on board the ship, 'Gipsy Queen'. Recent information has come to light that Richard's second cousin Mary and her husband, John MAY were passengers on the 'Gipsy Queen' at the same crossing. They were on their way to Goderich to take up farming in Goderich, where Mary's older brother Charles WALTER, had previously come to live.

Ship arrival records indicate that the 'Gipsy Queen' did not arrive at Quebec City until the 2 Jun 1857. There is no record of the ship being quarantined or docking at any other port, so they must have been on board for 47 days. This crossing obviously took an unexpected length of time because the 'Gipsy Queen' was scheduled to be back at Plymouth on the 12th. of June. It is quite likely that they were not prepared for the cold of the North Atlantic or the unexpected length of time that it took to make the trip. Records indicate that the weather conditions in the North Atlantic caused many delays because of ice, fog and rough water. It is speculated that these conditions, combined with an outbreak of scarlet fever, caused the death of their youngest child Ann, who was buried at sea off the coast of Newfoundland on the 15 May. Charles E. WALTER is quoted stating that "they were only one day sailing from sight of land when his baby sister died".

The family spent the first year with Ann's brother Abel MOORE, who had earlier came to Canada and owned a farm near Alma in Wellington County, Ontario. The following spring they purchased a one hundred-acre lot with a house and barn. This property was located, in Townsend, Norfolk, north of Talbot Road near the source of Black Creek, 5 miles west of Jarvis. They had sailed from England aboard the 'Gypsy Queen' with a member of the IVEY family and it is believed, that they became friends and maintained correspondence after they arrived in Canada. The IVEY family owned a farm on the Talbot Road, (later known as # 3 Hwy.) near Jarvis, which seems likely to have been the reason that Richard decided to live in this area. It took all of Richard and Ann's resources to finance the purchase of this property and when winter came they ran out of money and food. Payments for the farm were due, so they wrote to the family in England and asked for help but the urgency of the request was ignored. Richard's parents returned a letter which offered only this popular advice, "Don't grab a bull by the horns unless you can hold him." It is not clear, if this was in retaliation for Richard leaving home against his parent's advice but they definitely misunderstood the seriousness of the request because they were in danger of losing the farm.

It was Easter Sunday when John IVEY came to call on them and discovered their desperate situation. He returned the following day to bring food and informed them that he had personally, guaranteed the loan against their property. A second letter was sent to the WALTER family in England explaining the severity of the situation. Money was eventually sent, but that appears to be the last correspondence they had with Richard's parents. Apparently, they believed that anyone with that amount of low cost, good farm land should become wealthy if they applied themselves to farming. They couldn't understand how anybody could be hungry, living on a one hundred-acre property. Charles E. WALTER is quoted as stating, "on the day John IVEY came to visit them, the only food they had left was three potatoes."

John IVEY's family later moved to Port Dover and began a green house business, growing and marketing roses. Ivey's Roses, became a successful company that survived until 1992. With financial assistance from the family in England and a loan guaranteed by John IVEY, Richard and Ann managed to plant grain and in the summer of 1859 and they harvested a good crop. After four or five years of successful farming they were able to repay their debts and decided to relocate to a larger property. In 1864 they sold that farm and purchased a one hundred and fifty-acre parcel of land approximately three km., east of Jarvis on the south side of the Talbot Road (#3 Hwy.). It was recorded that they paid $3,600 for the farm which they called "Elm Grove Farm". They lived there until Richard died and their youngest daughter Clara, and son-in-law James DAVIDSON, purchased the farm. The house was enlarged in 1913 and is still there as of this date in 2010, although the barn is gone and power lines from the Nanticoke power plant occupy some of the original property. The last member of the family to live in Elm Grove Farm was Charles E. DAVIDSON who died in 1966.
