Biography
- Birth: 10 July 1850; Meelick, Queen's County, Ireland
- Christening: 10 November 1850; St Peter's Church of Ireland, Maryborough, Queen's County
- Death: 20 August 1900; Nassagaweya tp, Halton County, Ontario
- Note: "Edward J. Clarke
"Was born in Queen's County, Ireland, in 1850; was converted to God in 1866, and died on the Nassagaweya Circuit, August, 1900. In 1853 he came with his parents to this country where his family settled, first in the township of Garafraxa, and later in the township of Peel, County of Wellington.
"In 1866 the Rev. Nathaniel S. Burwash held special services at Mount Hope, on the Alma Circuit, at which several young people were converted, among whom were three who became ministers of the Gospel, namely, Edward J. Clarke; his brother, Thomas R. Clarke of our own Conference, and Henry Norris who became a Presbyterian minister.
"Bro. Clarke at first fitted himself for a school-teacher, obtaining a first class certificate when twenty-one years of age. He taught school about five years. During the ministry of the Rev. Robert Phillips he acted as a steward, leader and local preacher, and did much to lay the foundations of the present Arthur Circuit. He first entered the ministry as a supply at Grimsby. Afterwards, early in 1878, he was sent by the Chairman of the Sarnia District to Oil Springs. He was received by the Conference in the following June, and stationed at Watford. In 1887 he was married to Miss Lottie Lee, of Brantford, who with his aged mother, five brothers and one sister, survive him.
"Bro. Clarke's circuits were Marthaville, Drumbo, Plattsville, Lynden, Fenwick, Lowville, Smithville, Ancaster, Burford and Nassagaweya. About the first of August, 1900, he was taken down with typhoid fever. When at church, which proved to be his last Sabbath in the pulpit, following weakness coming over him, he sat down and requested the congregation to sing "A Charge to Keep I have." The symptoms at first were not considered alarming, but he gradually sank, and on the 20th of the same month passed peacefully away to a better clime. As a preacher Bro. Clarke was thoughtful, earnest and evangelical. He neither held nor uttered uncertailn opinions on Methodist theology. In building churches, paying off church debts, raising Connexional funds, or in pastoral visiting, Bro. Clarke was always "in labors more abundant." But above all, he loved to hold special services for the conversion of sinners and edification of the Church. A large part of his ministerial life was employed in these laborious, but delightful exercises, and through his instrumentality many souls were born into the kingdom of God who today rejoice in His saving grace." (Bio. file at United Church Archives, from Minutes of the Hamilton Methodist Conference, 1901)
Edward's will, dated October 1892, listed property in the village of Brigden in Lambton County, and also the Peel tp. farm where he had grown up (see notes for his father, James) and where his brother and mother were living at the time. His survivors were his widow and brothers and sister. There were no children.

Edward Harvey Cull
M, #2952, b. about 1844, d. 28 February 1927
Parents
- Father: Harvey Cull (b. about 1820, d. 6 May 1898)
- Mother: Rhoda Luter (b. 20 August 1823, d. 26 September 1902)
Biography
- Birth: About 1844; Wellington County, Canada West
- Death: 28 February 1927; Larimore, Grand Forks, North Dakota
- Burial: 2 March 1927; Saint Thomas, Pembina, North Dakota
- Note: Edward was listed as 8 years old on the 1851 census, indicating he was born about 1844. His age at marriage is inconsistent with that, and I am opting to go with the earliest 1851 estimate. Edward remarried after Elizabeth died. There is no Edward Cull listed in the 1881 Census CD--he probably had moved to North Dakota by then. His son James was living with his parents in Ontario at that time. North Dakota naturalization records indicate he filed his notice of intent to seek naturalization July 26, 1886 in Grand Forks and that he was granted citizenship June 14, 1890 in Walsh county.
- Note: Helen Ann McQueen; Witnesses were John McQueen of Peel Tp and Hannah Cull of Garafraxa, both bride and groom were Wesleyan Methodist. Rev. John Duff.
