Notes

Sailor and Barber. In 1901 City Directory listed as Imperial Barber Shop 10 Market Square living at 24 High St. When he was a boy he was very strong. We have been told at 5 he could lift 2 pails full of water at arms length out from his sides. Also at 5 he carried his father, who held a baby in his arms, across the room. Older men have told me that at 9 he lifted heavy anchors at the docks and the men bet on him. As an adult he was 5?" tall. Obituary says he was in poor health for 6-7 years, enthusiastic Mason/Shriner, St. Georges Society. Survived by 2 brothers, Stephen in Malden, MA and Andrew of Boston and Saint John. The funeral was from 281 Princess St.

If you notice any errors, let me know! There are probably quite a few, but I'd love to get this as accurate as possible.
