The Death Roll
Mr. Isaac B. Clark died at his home in Sunny Brae this morning after a painful illness of two months.The deceased, who was 56 years of age had been in the employ of the I. C. R. for 30 years.For 14 years of that time he was the night car inspector, but 4 years ago he was promoted to day car inspector, which position he held until his late sickness some two months ago.
If anyone knows of this Isaac Clark and has a provenance of his Birth Record and proof of who his parents are; I would love to hear from you.We have been told that his parents are Charles Howard Clark who was born Aug 6, 1806 in Studholm, New Brunswick and Rachel Bonnell (Bunnell) who was born in 1814.I have not been able to find a birth record anywhere to proove this.
