• Notes

  C.W. Strong's Memoirs, "[Charles was] a miner who worked in the mine at Tilt Cove, Notre Dame Bay, until it closed. He then moved to St. John's and worked as a carpenter. I understand the family had moved to Tilt Cove from Jackson's Arm, White Bay." Edwin Aposhian reported, "He [Charles W. Newhook] resided at St. John's on LeMarchant Road, the north side, just west of the white house where the nuns resided. The house that was bought by Ralph and Martha Strong was later torn down to provide space for St. Clare's Hospital. Charles died of blood poisoning sometime between 1913 and 1916. Their marriage was witnessed by Martha P. Newhook, M. Landown, Charles Batstone & John R. Batstone."
