Saunders and Sadler — Genealogy

Lorraine Nephin just sent me this .. thank you
Beatrice Saunders age 17. Later she married Howard Sadler. They ran a fruit and vegetable farm in Almonte

Lila Leach-James-— Beatrice’s brother was James Saunders and married my fathers older sister, Eva Leach and they lived in Westboro…..He designed and was in charge of building many of the railroad stations in Ontario! He designed his beautiful stone house which I believe is designated heritage and still standing at 300 Elm Grove Avenue, Westboro….

Jim Saunders had a barn in his back yard! Nowadays that would not be allowed! His hobby was raising chickens, exotic breeds. They were every colour and design! He won many ribbons at the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto…He had many, sometimes 50 different breeds! The ones that didn’t win sometimes found their way up to our farm!

This is a photo of James and Eva Saunders….probably taken in early 1900’s…I remember being at their 50th anniversary around 1960….

 

Jason Porteous I have a copy of this picture of her parents. I got it many years ago and can’t remember who shared it with me. Its of Albert Saunders and his wife Minnie Hoerle.

Wayne Poirier Lena Berenice Saunders is my 2nd cousin 2x removed.

 

 

Jennie, Violet, Florence, George Saunders at their grandmother’s house near the CPR station in Carleton Place. They were the children of William Joseph Saunders and Emily Tanner and the grandchildren of Robert Saunders and Marie Anne Lewis.

The photo posted is from the Porteous family collection. I have put up other photos before taken by Pat Allan’s Mom, Muriel (nee Porteous) but this is from Jason Porteous’s family photo collection. Thank you for preserving history! Amazing photos!

Childbirth Court Case — Saunders Vs Dr Downing

January 1900 Carleton Place Herald–
Found by Josh Greer- and property of Lisa Occomore and Brad Occomore of Valley Granite and Tile

Without calling upon Mr. G. F. Henderson, K.C., counsel for the defence, to produce argument, Mr, Justice Wright sitting in the Ontario Supreme Court at Ottawa on
Wednesday dismissed without costs the action brought by Mr. M. A. Saunders, who was  a resident of Carleton Place, against Dr. A. Downing, physician, of the same town, for damages -amounting to ‘$10,000, for the death of his wife on December 28th, 1923, which he alleged was due to malpractice on the part of the physician.

Mr. Saunders, through a number of witnesses, medical and lay, sought to prove that Dr. Downing who as the family physician, had been called upon to attend Mrs. Saunders, upon her confinement, had not properly attended upon her with the result that she had died the same day as the birth of her child from an excessive hemorrhage. Downing was also accused that has conduct had been unprofessional in that he had used offensive language towards the sick woman and members of the family assembled at her bedside. Hard to believe, but in those days words came out easy with no thoughts in the heat of the moment.

 

January 1900 Carleton Place Herald–
Found by Josh Greer- and property of Lisa Occomore and Brad Occomore of Valley Granite and Tile

Mr. G. F. Henderson, K. C., for the defence submitted medical testimony from Dr. Campbell Laidlaw and Dr. Walter whose opinions based upon general medical practice, went to show that she had been subjected to what is ‘known as pulmonary embolism’, which had caused practical asphyxiation, rather than excessive hemorrhage.

Dr. Campbell Laidlaw explained to the court that pulmonary embolism was a rare
occurrence, but was met with in childbirth cases, and that it meant the forcing of a clot of blood through the arteries to the right chamber of the heart where it lodges, causing
suffocation. There is today, no known preventive or cure in medical science for this disease, which almost in every case results in death, it was asserted.

May 23 1924

Dr Johnson House

Address: Bridge Street, Carleton Place, Ontario

Originally owned by Robert Bell, the property first held a white frame home.

The present house was built in 1902 by Dr. M.A. MacFarlane, who fashioned the red brick home after a house in Scotland.

After Dr. MacFarlane’s death, the house was rented to Doctor’s Downing and Ferrill.

In 1924 Dr. Allen Johnson bought the home, and with his wife Annie established a medical practice  that was to last 45 year

Thanks to John Edwards and then the sleuthing of Jennifer Fenwick Irwin.. this is Mary Peden from Bell Street in front of St. Paul’s in Almonte and not St Jame’s in Carleton Place.

Albert Saunders and Wilhelmina Hoerle-50th Wedding Anniversary 5 Catherine Street Carleton Place, ON.

All Photos- from Debora Cloutier

From Debora Cloutier

Last April my father Cal Saunders passed. When we cleaned out his house I was the one entrusted with anything of historical significance. So I have some photos that I think should be shared as well.

My great great grandfather was Albert Saunders and he built the house at number 5 Catherine St in Carleton Place. His wife was Minnie Harley and he was a carpenter in town. Most of the family lived there, or in the area. My great grandfather owned a house on Townline Rd . He had 5 children there with his first wife and she passed giving birth.  Just at the corner of Catherine St . Richard Arthur Saunders. Great grandfather remarried and had 4 more children.

These photos are tins . They were an amazing treasure to find. My great uncle gave them to me .

My goal is for the family members to have access. It would take me to long to track them down. Hopefully someone sees them. I can be contacted at pakedermsrule@gmail.com

Please note– Debora is only interested in info regarding the pictures .

 

Thank you Debora!!
