Thomas Meredith

M, #10380, b. 010 or 16 May 1861, d. 7 August 1928

Parents

Biography

  • Birth: 010 or 16 May 1861; England
  • Christening: 14 July 1861; Maryborough, Queen's County, Ireland
  • Death: 7 August 1928; Yorkton, Saskatchewan
  • Note:
    The 1881 and 1901 Censuses indicate Thomas was born in England, although he was christened in Ireland only two months after his birth (Baptism Register, p. 84, # 671). He also lists himself as of English origin? IGI record has him born 29 March 1862 in Yorkton (obviously an error) and died 7 August 1928.
    In 1891 Thomas, his wife and eldest son were living in Broadview, Assiniboia district (now Saskatchewan), as were his parents. In the 1901 census his birth date is recorded as 20 April 1862 and he is said to have immigrated to Canada in 1868. He lived in Yorkton, Saskatchewan (Yorkton was part of the North West Territories until 1905). In 1911 he and his family were living at 515-5th Ave. in New Westminster, BC and his occupation is listed as Lumber Merchant. There he is said to have been born in March 1858. The family was said to have had a lovely summer home.
    A news item in the "Daily Building Record," Sept. 26, 1912 (the official publication for the Architectural Institute of B.C.) notes that his New Westminster residence was "partially destroyed by fire at a loss of $12,000., covered by insurance." October 25 in the same paper notes that bids are being received for "additions and alterations to a residence for Mrs. Meredith at an approx. cost of $10,000. This building was almost entirely destroyed by fire several days ago. The altered building will be of stone and frame const. containing a hot water heating plan, billiard and reception room, etc."
    In August 1904, while a resident of Yorkton, he was a member of the board of the Arrowhead Lumber Company ("Kootenay Mail," 6 Aug. 1904). On the 25th of February, 1905, the Kootenay Mail noted that Thomas had "arrived on his way to the company's mill, where he will remain for a time." And on July 29th, 1905 it was noted: "Thos. Meredith, of Vancouver and Saskatoon, and director of Arrowhead Lumber Co., is making an extended visit to Arrowhead. Mr. Meredith is a large ranch owner and has numerous other commercial undertakings in the Northwest. He is a cousin of Chief Justice Meredith, of Ontario, and has risen by his own exertions to his present position." [note that his relationship to the Chief Justice is very, very distant]
    In 1921 Thomas and his family were living at j1419 Pendrell St., in Vancouver. Children still in the household included Gertrude, Caroline, Edwin, Fred and Howard. Thomas's occupation was lumberman.

John (of Cappagh & Ontario) Meredith

M, #10384, b. about 1790, d. 15 October 1859

Parents

Biography

  • Birth: About 1790; Queens County, Ireland
  • Marriage: 7 October 1812; Jane Wilkinson; Coolbanagher Parish, Queen's County, Ireland
  • Death: 15 October 1859; Essa tp, Simcoe County, Canada West
  • Burial: 17 October 1859; Christ Church, West Gwillimbury
  • Note: We have no documentation proving inconclusively that John was from The Oak--the baptism records for his children indicate they lived in Cappagh. In 1838 John was said to be a farmer in Cappagh. He is probably the John Meredith of Cappagh who was registered as a voter in Maryborough West 20 October 1840. In Ontario it is clear John was closely related to the Merediths who are known to have been the daughters of Thomas of The Oak . However, there are substantial discrepancies between the Irish baptism records for some of the children and the ages later recorded for them on various Canadian censuses.
    However, overall we conclude this must be the John Meredith who held Blocks 2 (49 acres), 3 (49 acres) and 4 (53 acres) in Cappagh on the Griffiths Valuation in 1850. He occupied a house on Block 4. By 1855 Blocks 2 and 3 were held by John and Edward Dunne, and Block 4 by Mary Delany. It appears likely the family came to Canada approximately 1855, the immigration date son Edward gave on the 1901 census. Canadian land records reveal John purchased his Canadian farm from his brother-in-law, William Carter.
    Extracted from: "The Petition of James Meredyth [sic] and Edward Meredyth, both of the township of Essa in the County of Simcoe, Yeoman, the second and fourth sons of John Meredith, late of the same place, deceased" (Simcoe County Surrogate Court, Vol. C, p. 282, file #33, 20 October 1859).
    John Meredith died 15 October 1859, Essa township, "a widower leaving 7 children, viz., 4 Boys Thomas, your Petitioner James, John and your Petitioner Edward; and three Girls 2 of whom are married, viz. Rebecca married to her cousin John Meredyth [sic]; Susanna married to James Hovenden; and Jane Meredyth spinster, all of whom are of age [illegible] surviving and Intestate."
    John and Thomas renounced any claim to the estate, which was valued at about $500 (note, they signed the petition spelling their last name "Meredith"). James and Edward were both residents of Essa at the time. Witnesses to the petition were R. T. Banting (Robert) and John Banting (the Bantings were cousins--their mother was a Meredith).
    Entry #105 in the Christ Church, West Gwillimbury register. John Meredith, age 66, was buried on Oct. 17, 1859. Cause of death was not known. Place of burial, Christ Church, West Gwillimbury, the funeral was conducted by J Fletcher.
  • Note: Jane Wilkinson; John Meredith of the Parish of Clonenagh married Jane Wilkinson, "daughter of James Wilkinson of Cappakill."

Family: Jane Wilkinson (b. about 1792, d. November 1850)

Parents

Biography

  • Birth: About 1820; Queens County, Ireland
  • Death: 1 December 1886; Queens County, Ireland
  • Note: Rice was a farmer and resident of "The Fall," at the time of his marriage. Rice and family lived at "The Oak" until at least May 1864, when Frederick was baptised. Two years later, in August 1866 they resided in Derrykearn, Abbeyleix parish. It appears they left The Oak due to Rice having had financial difficulties:

  • Death: 1915; Queen's County, Ireland

  • Note: 1901 Census Meelick Townland, Rosenallis Parish. Jeremiah Meredith, head, aged 72, farmer, widower; Jeremiah W., son, aged 28, farmer, not married; Jane, daughter, aged 30, not married; Marion, daughter, aged 25, not married; plus one general domestic servant. The house had 13 rooms occupied, with 8 windows in front. Landholder was Jeremiah Meredith (extracted by KW). The 1911 census: Jeremiah, widower, farmer age 83; son Jeremiah [Jr] single, farmer, age 37; daughters Jane age 39? and Marion age 32; and niece Lucy Wilkinson age 20, all single. Records concerning Jeremiah's children are a bit muddled--need sorting out.

  • Marriage: 2 December 1837; Thomas Meredith; Mountrath Parish, Queen's County

  • Note: Mary was a resident of Clonenagh Parish at the time of her marriage to Thomas Meredith.Her death at age 68 was registered in 1875 in Mountmellick; death record gives cause of death as "cerebral and hepatic congestion"--sounds pretty weird!
    We think Mary may have been the daughter of John Meredith and Esther Hill. Her second son was John and her second daughter Esther. Moreover, they had a daughter Mary baptised in 1809, who could be this person? Still showing as a separate entry for now, however!

Biography

  • Birth: 1 March 1866; Queens County, Ireland
  • Death: After 1930
  • Note: 1900 US Census, Lincoln, Massachusetts: Rice Meredith, 32, born Mar 1868 [sic], immigrated 1887, single, boarder, occupation Coachman. In 1910 Rice 43 and Catherine 40 are in Lincoln, Rice still a coachman for a private family. They have no children. This entry must have been informed by a third party--surname listed as Merith, ages at time of marriage said to be unknown, Rice said to have been born in Massachusetts and his parents in Scotland! Ancestry has indexed his name as Axel Meritt!
    There is a Rice Meredith, no age or other details, listed as a boarder in a household in Worcester, Mass. in 1920--probably this Rice, but where is his wife? In 1930 both Rice (56) and Catherine (59) are in Worcester and had been married since ages 30 and 33; Rice is a gardener for a private family. Places of birth are again wonky: Rice New Hampshire, his parents, Catherine and her parents all said to have been born Northern Ireland (but should have been the Republic, then referred to as the Irish Free State in 1930 USA census).

  • Marriage: 2 June 1827; Deborah Carter; Roskelton Parish, Queens County, Ireland
  • Note: Samuel was a resident of Clonenagh parish at the time of his marriage to Deborah Carter. I think it likely he was the son of Samuel Meredith and Sarah Ince, and also the Samuel who married Margaret Vanston in 1829 and later emigrated to Canada.
  • Note: Deborah Carter; Roskelton paris register, p. 1, #4. This could be the son of Samuel Meredith and Sarah Ince--no further information.
