i m A History of Canoe Cove

infancy from a mastoid infection. Myrtle also died

when a young woman. Edith Anne married Dugald Currie, as noted

under the Curries. Florence married Kenneth MacRae as stated

under the MacRaes. Phoebe went to the States and married Donald

MacFadyen. Alberta also went to the States and married

there. The Richard Rogerson house is long gone and the lot reunited with the MacKinnon land that now belongs to

Lester Shaw. The Artemus Rogerson house is gone and Charles

MacNevin owns the land. There are no Rogersons left in Canoe Cove but Velma

MacPhee, Florence MacCannell, Elvit and Edith MacLean are descendents.

SAMUEISON. . Jodee Samuelson is a very gifted lady, as I mentioned

before. She teaches art at the Confederation Centre but more prestigious is the award she won for her film making. That she is an expert in the art of film making is attested to by the fact that she won the Linda Joy Busby Arts Foundation Award in 1990.

THE SHAWS. Gus and Louise Shaw moved from Bloomfield to the

Ewen MacKinnon farm in the early 1940’s. What was remarkable about this family was that there were eleven sons and ten of them served in the Armed Forces during World War II, as well as a brother in law. All survived and after the war Gordon took over the farm from Gus, later seling it to Cecil MacKenzie.

Perley, Gus' son bought the Big Donald farm after the war. He married Ruth Costain and they raised a large

family.
