1601 she lived with Sidney & Lucy Baggs 1935 at Bluff Head Cove. BUT also listed with her widowed father in 1935 Census at Back Harbour Twill. Dove, May (I2408)
 
1602 She married  Roberts, Esther Ann (I4073)
 
1603 She married  Roberts, Olivia (I4077)
 
1604 She married  Campbell, Louisa (I4112)
 
1605 She might have been adopted when she was four years old by William and Florence.
A message (which I cannot see all of) is on Ancestry. 
Mitchell, Daisy (I3257)
 
1606 She resided Purcells Hr 1921, widowed, with daughter Clara. Census data also said that Louisa Anstey, dau of Peter Anstey, b. Oct 1890 and Rowena Anstey, dau of Peter Anstey; b, Jul 1900, resided with Bessie L. Hicks. However, Peter Anstey, by my records, did not have a daughter Rowena. Perhaps they meant Rosanna.
 
Anstey, Bessie Laura (I2239)
 
1607 She was a cousin to Horace Holstead. Her Parents were George and Esther.
Died at age 33. - Isabel Elliott
"Ontario Births, 1869-1912," index, entry for birth of Florence Caroline Hyde, 02 Dec 1870; citing Carleton, Ontario, Canada, registration number 21708; FHL microfilm 1844888. cites mother's name as Sarah Holstead. 
Holstead, Sarah (I45)
 
1608 She was a midwife for Rowsell's Island and area, travelling by boat, dog and sled, horse and sled and showshoes.

1921 Census says she was born at Shoe Cove as does Olive Upshall in an article entitled "Midwife of Leading Tickles" in the book "Savour of Things Past". I had perviously had her birth place as King's Cove and birthdate as Aug 1875,

Headstone reads: "In loving memory of Frances, beloved wife of Israel A. Rowsell Died May 14th 1945 aged 69 years." Viewed Summer 2004 at Leading Tickles Old Methodist Cemetery. 
Foster, Frances (I395)
 
1609 she was baptized as Helen Melina, dau of John Ward & Selina Peddle.. Ward, Leah Ellen (I3892)
 
1610 Shipbuilder 1921 at Springdale Is a tentative son of William Wells Hull and Sophia Anstey Married to Ethel Unknown (bc Oct 1901 Springdale) Hull, Andrew (I1871)
 
1611 Silas and Lillian originally from Catalina. Lillian (I811)
 
1612 Since Cyril was buried with his brother Gordon and sister Florence and her husband, it is likely he never married.
 
Field, Cyril (I40)
 
1613 Since I have no evidence to support her name being Sarah (I did have a question mark by it), and since D. Hogge lists her name as Julia as does another source, I am changing it to Julia.
 
Julia (I170)
 
1614 Since the son is George Slade, it is likely that her surname was "Slade" since it was the custom to give the mother's surname to the son as a second name. Mary (I834)
 
1615 Since there is another brother Andrew (born 10 years later) this Andrew likely died in childhood. Anstey, Andrew (I2573)
 
1616 Single in 1921, living with parents.

A quiet but very pretty wedding took place on Monday night at 6:30
at Methodist Church, when Miss Elsie PIKE, daughter of Mr. & Mrs.
John PIKE, was united in holy bonds of matrimony to Capt. Sidney
T. JONES, son of Mr. And Mrs. George JONES, M.H.A. by the Rev.
Wm. HARRIS. The bride was charmingly attired in blue silk with hat
to match. She was attended by her sister, Miss Belle PIKE. The groom
was supported by the brides brother, while Mr. James TITFORD acted
as father giver. After the ceremony they motored to the home of the
bride's parents, where a supper was served in the presence of a few friends,
and a very happy evening was spent by all. The bride was the recipient of
many valuable and useful presents, amongst them being a purse of gold
from the Girl Guides of which she was a member. Mr. and Mrs. JONES left
by Wednesday morning's train for St. John's, there to connect with
the Prospero enroute to their future home, Little Bay Islands. The
Standard wishes the happy couple many years of wedded bliss.
- H.G. Standard.

1620 Solomon's son William Armstrong, residing at Jackson's Cove died of pneumonia while still in his forties and his oldest son, Charles, was left to support the family at about eighteen years of age.


Barbara Pederson reported that William died at age 43 on December 22, 1903 and was buried at Three Arms.

William was born at Three Arms. Sarah was born and died at Jackson's Cove.

Their headstone is at Jackson's Cove.

His obituary (source unknown) :

Dear Greeting, Just a few lines to say that death has presently paid us a visit, and has taken from our ranks a dear brother in the person of William Strong.

He was one who was highly esteemed by all who knew him, and we are also pleased to say that his home was always open to the Methodist minister whenever he came that way.

His sickness, which was unto death, did not last but a few days, but the many friends who visited him and heard his dying testimony, felt confident that his feet were firmly fixed upon the Rock of Ages.

The obsequies were largely attended by friends from Three Arms, South West Arm and Nipper's Harbour, and a very appropriate sermon was delivered by the Rev. W. J. Morris from the words, "There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God".

He leaves a wife and five children to mourn their sad loss. To the bereaved we extend our deepest sympathy. The deceased died at Jackson's Cove December 19th, 1903.

P. S. At the grave was sung the lines:
"At the margin of the river
Lay we every burden down
Grace our spirits will deliver
And provide a robe and crown".

Story has it :- (Source - Susan Mitchell)
John was a fisherman who had his quota of fish, he gave it to Crosby fish merchants who in return were supposed to exchange it for a parcel of food . For some reason this did not happen and John and Hettie starved to death.


A Tragedy
Come gather round me fisherfolk.
And listen unto me.
And I will tell to you a tale of want and misery
A tale to make your hearts be sad.
To make your eyes go wet.
Relating how John Mitchell and his wife had met their death

They found them in a squalid shack.
Their eiderdown a sail.
Their medicine some epsom salts.
Twas never known to fail.
But daily they grew weak and gaunt.
Till but the bones and skin.
Remained a tribute to the sole.
And a merchants medicine.

Yet day by day in bitter frost.
They fought their fight for life.
So they could ease their childrens plights.
John Mitchell and his wife.
But flesh and blood cannot survive.
On six cents dole per day.
And death to them was merciful.
They slept in hallowed clay.

Good people as you sleep tonight.
Remember in your prayers.
John Mitchell and his faithful wife.
And the hardship that was theirs.
And if you charity be touched.
And you would aid the poor.
I need not tell you where they are.
You'll find them at your door.
