J. Ruth. (2)Miss Mattie is at home. (3)Edgar Wilson, a farmer of Orford township, married Eva Evaline Congo. (4)Frank Cornwall, a physician of Vancouver, B.C., graduated from Toronto University with the degree of M.B., after which he entered Edinburgh University; he next went to London, England, where he received the degree of L.R.C.A.; and then enlisted in the Imperial Yeomanry, as surgeon, spending two years in South Africa. Returning home at the close of the war, after a few months he returned to England and took the degrees L.R.C.P. and M.R.C.S. In July 1903, he married Grace A. Brown, of Niagara Falls, and since his location in Vancouver has rapidly risen in his profession. (5)William Alexander is a physician of Olds, Alberta. (6)Miss Edith Marilla, of Woodstock, is a trained nurse. (7)Hiram Roy is a student at College. Mrs. Hannah Marilla (Cornwall) McTavish was born in Orford township, Aug. 13, 1844, daughter of Joseph and Bethany (Wilson) Cornwall, of England, who were reared in Canada. They were among the early settlers of the Dominion, and soon after their marriage, which took place in 1837, they located in the County of Kent. The father died Aug. 27, 1885, aged sixty-five years. Both died at the home of the son-in-law, Mr. McTavish, and they are buried in the Morpeth cemetery. Their religious connection was with the Methodists. The children born to their union were: Hiram, a farmer of Ellensburg, Washington; Nicholas, a farmer of Assiniboia; Mary, who married Archie McTavish (a brother of our subject), a farmer of Howard township; Hannah Marilla; Percilla, who married John Sinnington, of Howard township; Emily, who married Rev. C. Burdett, of Ridgetown, Ont.; and Jane, deceased.
Alexander McTavish spent his life upon his farm and was frankly and justly proud of his beautiful home and fine land. The dwelling is one of the modern model farm houses of the county, fitted with all modern improvements, including hot and cold water, baths, gas, etc., and handsomely furnished. One of the conspicuous features of the furnishings is the collection of various South African curios, including some magnificent tiger rugs, brought to his parents by Dr. Frank C. McTavish.
