William Armstrong.  A quartette, comprising of Charles Watson, Arthur Craig, Elwood MacLean and Wilbur Jones sang two selections, "The Beautiful Land" and "Abide With Me".  Mrs Carl Byers was accompanist.  The bearers were five nephews, Hugh Thomas, Allison Thomas, Wilfred Kilpatrick, Brockway Vail, Charles Vail and a neighbor, Harold Langley.

 

    She married Charles William Vail, 19 Nov 1895 in York Co., NB. Born 1859. Died 20 May 1934 in Brockway. Buried in Brockway Union Cemetery.

 

    From newspaper obituary - 1934:

    Charles William Vail

    Brockway, NB, May 23 -- It was with sorrow that this community learned last Sunday morning that Charles William Vail, a life long resident of this place, had passed away at the age of seventy-five years.  He had been in failing health for nearly a year but only the last three weeks was he confined to his bed.  Mr Vail was a prominent Mason and Oddfellow and was also an ardent fisherman.  Besides his wife and adopted daughter, Miss Elsie Hunt, he is survived by one sister, Mrs Alfred Thomas, and two brothers, James Vail and Solomon Vail, all of Brockway.

    The funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon and was one of the largest ever held in this place.  The service at the house was conducted by Rev. William Armstrong of the United Church and the pallbearers were six nephews, Lem Vail, Brockway Vail, Oscar Young, Everett Vail, George Vail and Charles Vail.  The many beautiful floral tributes testified to the high esteem in which he was held.

 

   They had the following child:

139 i. Elsie Hunt
