2. JABEZ2 BARNARD (THOMAS1)1 was born Mar 06, 1788 in Alconbury, Huntingdon, England1, and died Jun 22, 1859 in Charlottetown, PEI1. He married CATHERINE (KATE) HAWKINS1 Dec 31, 1810 in St. Paul's Anglican Church, Ch'town/Rev. Thomas DesBrisay1, daughter of JOHN HAWKINS and CATHERINE MCCONNOCHI. She was born 1791 in Charlottetown, PEI1, and died Sep 25, 1854 in Charlottetown, PEI1.
Notes for JABEZ BARNARD:
Jabez was a carpenter and contractor (Islander Nov. 16, 1849). He emigrated to Prince Edward Island in 1809 from London and has resided nearly ever since in Charlottetown. Soon after his emigration to Prince Edward Island, he was granted land at Lot 47( July 3, 1809-Land Petition, requests a grant of town Lot 47, 5th hundred pasture lot #348 in the Royalty of Charlottetown that he may build on and improve them.). The petition is dated # July 1809, signed 7 July, 1809. Also, he was allowed pasture lot #348 in Charlottetown Royalty and improved them). April 22, 1845, Page 3 of the Royal Gazette he is listed as a Fireman.
In the census of 1848 Jabez and his family are enumerated there. One person was born in England (Jabez) and 7 others were PEI born. The family practiced the Methodist religion. The age breakdown was two females and one male under 16, three females from 16-45, and one male and one female over 60. Jabez was a participant in the "California Association" to search for gold in California.
Jabez and Catherine are buried in Elm Avenue Cemetery, Ch'town. PEI.
Examiner, 27 June, 1859: Jabez Barnard, on the 22nd, age 71. Emigrated in 1809 from London, England: obtained from "From England to PEI" by Peter Gallant, published by the PEI Genealogical Society.
Jabez Barnard owned a house at 348 Euston Street, situated on the north-east corner of Weymouth and Kent Sts. It is strange that the house he built for himself has windows tight to the eaves, almost no roof overhang, and is in a saltbox shape, all characteristics we associate with New England architecture. Ref Pg 70, "Charlottetown The life in its Buildings, written by Irene L. Rogers. Book is in my library of reference books.
275 Kent St., and 277 Kent St. Jabez Barnard, senior, intent on giving his two sons a good start in life, divided lot 41 in the fourth hundred of town lots and gave each son half. The sons Jabez Alder and Silas, carpenters, erected substantial houses from the same pattern as their Fathers and put them up for sale. These houses passed through several owners and all early exterior details of the houses have been eliminated. Inside, however, are mouldings and doors of the pre-1850 period. A photo of both houses is on page 158 of "Charlottetown The life in its Buildings, written by Irene L. Rogers. The Book is in my library of reference books.
In 1831 Isaac and Henry Smith, Nathan Wright and Jabez contracted to build a new Episcopal church in Charlottetown. Through some hardships the building opened on February 10, 1836. This building was torn down when a new one was erected in 1895-96 by William C. Harris.

Notes for SARAH AMELIA MOORE:
Sarah Amelia Moore, married John Robert MacKenzie Sept. 28, 1870. On their wedding day Edward Moore presented his Daughter with a bible and stated that it was "A Gift", this bible is in the possession of Shelly (Boekema)MacLeod(Janet, William Elton, Wm. Maxwell MacKenzie,John MacLean Robertson).
Photo copies of the pertinent pages is in my "Document" file in my Library(Rita Offer) They lived on PEI in Alberton, as Alice Rachel was born there in 1873, some time thereafter they heading to the USA, where in Sept of 1875 twin girls were born, Georgina Paschal and Mary Wilson Larue (Laroc). Some time in the next two to three years they travelled to Goshen, Henderson County, Texas where Mattie Snow, named after the Dr. Snow who assisted at her birth, was born in June of 1878. The next year in January 1879 Mary Wilson passed away and is buried in the Goshen Cemetry which is the only reminder of the town that once was there. in July of that same year Edward Robert "Bob" was born and shortly after John Robert was killed on Aug. 9, when he gave up his life to stop a runaway team of horses. Ironically enough some thirty-two years later John Herman Robertson, Matties brother-in-law was to suffer the same fate, both widows lost husbands and gained? medals. John Roberts widow was given a medal to honor him and sometime within the next year Sarah, with baby Bob, Mattie (just over 1 year) and Georgina (about 4 ) travelled back to Canada and PEI. The 1881 Census shows Sarah as living in Alberton, where she taught piano lessons in her home to help support her. Tom Offer (grandson of Mattie) possess the school bell that belonged to Sarah and was believed to have been used by her to teach school in Texas, as told to us by Nannie, Mattie Snow "MacKenzie" Robertson.

Mattie S./F./3,/ USA Edward R./M./2/ USA., shortly thereafter Sarah married Alexander Meggison and sent Georgina to live with her Grandfather Edward Moore in Charlottetown and Mattie and Edward were sent to their Grandfather MacKenzie in Cavendish.

Notes for JOHN ROBERT MACKENZIE:
In the 1871 Lovell's Directory for Alberton John Robert is listed as Blacksmith, and later as a Carpenter.
ON FILE A letter received from the Henderson County Historical Society for the Goshen Cemetery: In volume 1, Cemetery Records of Henderson County (Out of Print) on Page 94, the following notations: Goshen Cemetery McKenzie, J. Robert, Died Aug 9, 1879 Age 32 yrs. 7 mos. "To My Beloved Husband" Knights of Honor Lodge #1135. also see Mary W. L. daughter. It is unknown why John Robert would leave Alberton, PEI and head to Saginaw Michigan with a wife and young daughter Alice, and after the birth of twin girls and the death of Alice, then 2 yrs of age, would once again travel farther south to Goshen, Texas, now a ghost town. Goshen, located on the Smith Robinson Survey on the Tyler to Porter's Bluff Road (6 miles east of Eustace). One of the early major trading centers in Henderson County. The first business was a general merchandise established in 1870 by Murchison, Coleman and Warren. The second business was established by John K. Jones which dissolved in 1881, and reopened and continued until 1885. Another business was J.O. Gossett, Carpenter and Cabinets, unknown when started, could this be where John Robert worked. See documents in Document binder in Library.
One of the twin girls, Mary, passed away in Goshen, at the age of 3 1/2, and two more children, Mattie in 1878 and Robert in 1879 were born. John Robert died in August of 1879 stopping a team of runaway horses and shortly thereafter Sarah his widow left Texas to return to Canada. This was a spunky lady to travel the length of the continent with 3 small children in tow. More on Sarah's life is in her file.

Notes for MATTIE SNOW MACKENZIE:
The name "Snow" in Nannies name came from the Doctor who delivered her. I remember the times that Tom and I used to go out to Louthers in Bedeque to visit Nannie, she was always a sharp old lady and if the paper was hidden she would say "What's going on that they won't let me read the paper". When we told her that we were getting married (Me being a Catholic and Tom a Presbyterian) Nannie laughed and said "And what does McKay (Pronounced McKie/Presbyterian Minister) think of that. Nannie loved her "Spoonful" of brandy before bed and Tom and I took her a bottle about every month and it was not until after her passing that we found out that other relatives were doing about the same so Nannie had more than a Spoon before bed. Just before her death she was in the hospital with pneumonia and the Nurse went into her room one night to find her sitting up in a chair. "What are you doing in that chair, you'll have to get back in bed", "No" said Nannie "I'm not getting into that bed as I can't sleep with all that crackling and I haven't had my Brandy" (Nan was in an oxygen tent and they were like a huge plastic bag around the bed and they did crackle). I remember the night Nannie died, Tom, Paul and I were having supper at our apartment on Granville St. and Paul dropped his knife and it landed in his milk glass, handle down, and no milk spilled and the glass didn't break. Right away I turned to Tom and said "Someone in your family is going to die tonight", this was my Irish upbringing - fore runners they were called. It was just a half hour later that Tom's Mom phoned to say that Nannie had passed away.

Notes for WILLIAM ELTON ROBERTSON:
The Robertson's lived on the farm of Grandfather John McLean Robertson who willed the 83 Acre farm in Cavendish to Elton, with the stipulation that Elton look after his Grandmother Isabella. When the farmhouse burned down the only things that were recovered were the Family clock, which now belongs to William Ernest Robertson, and is being kept for him by Tom Offer, the organ was also saved and later made into two tables, one is owned by Frances Offer, daughter of Elton, and the other by Enid Boekema, daughter of late Janet Mill, daughter of Elton. The other two legs of the organ were given in payment to the maker of the tables for his labour. Grandfather, "Pa", Robertson moved to Summerside from Cavendish in 1913 and ranched at St. Patricks Ranch on the Pope Road in St. Eleanors, in 1920 he became a mail courier for Sherbrooke and Travellers Rest retiring in 1940.
He then looked after horses for Elmer Offer, husband of Frances, that were used for Milk delivery for Ideal Dairy and the horses were housed in a barn, since torn down, on St. Stephen Street, behind the Guardian Office. Pa loved horses and was an expert horseman, we have a photo of him on a cart with one of his horses.
He taught Tom, grandson, son of Frances, how to swear and one time Pa told Tom to tell Mr. McKenna, who operated a bakery in the old Agricultural Building that used to be on Central Street, that he was a "Dirty Son of a B----". Tom ran up to Mr. McKenna and said "Pa said to say you were a Dirty Son of a B----". Needless to say Mr. McKenna chewed out Pa.
"pa" was a mail carried for the Travellers Rest area and we have the Renewal contract for 1937 on file, in the Documents binder in my Library. He was 66 at the time.
