Obituary: "CANNON, Cassie Ruth (Llewellyn) It is with deep sadness and enduring love that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, sister, grandmother and great grandmother, and friend on February 12, 2009. As she departed this world Ruth was surrounded by family and friends. Born on July 3, 1913 in Sherbrooke, Prince Edward Island, Ruth moved to Victoria, B. C. in the mid 1940's. Victoria continued to be her home until 2002, when Ruth moved to Langley, B. C. to be closer to her family. Predeceased by her sisters, Mildred Olsen and Jean Van Alstine, Ruth will be sadly missed by her brother Charles Llewellyn (Wanda) of Halifax, Nova Scotia, sons, Roger (Hilde), Alan (Gail) John (Mitzi), daughter, Ruth Pepper (Hal), eleven grandchildren and twenty-nine great grandchildren. During her years in Victoria, Ruth gained many close friends. Ruth loved her garden, and her work selling ladies clothes at Reitmans, Taylors and Grace Wilson. Ruth also volunteered as school treasurer, sat on Anglican Church committees and spent several years helping with Meals on Wheels. During her later years living in Langley, Ruth spent more time with family and her good friend and caregiver Linda Wyatt. Ruth was a devoted mother, offering unconditional love and support to her four children, their spouses, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Ruth's legacy, the nurturing of important relationships and her courageous character, is evident throughout her family and will be passed on in generations to come. A celebration of Ruth's life was held on February 17th at the Parish of St. George in Langley, B. C.". Obituary: "CANNON, Cassie Ruth (Llewellyn) It is with deep sadness and enduring love that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, sister, grandmother and great grandmother, and friend on February 12, 2009. As she departed this world Ruth was surrounded by family and friends. Born on July 3, 1913 in Sherbrooke, Prince Edward Island, Ruth moved to Victoria, B. C. in the mid 1940's. Victoria continued to be her home until 2002, when Ruth moved to Langley, B. C. to be closer to her family. Predeceased by her sisters, Mildred Olsen and Jean Van Alstine, Ruth will be sadly missed by her brother Charles Llewellyn (Wanda) of Halifax, Nova Scotia, sons, Roger (Hilde), Alan (Gail) John (Mitzi), daughter, Ruth Pepper (Hal), eleven grandchildren and twenty-nine great grandchildren. During her years in Victoria, Ruth gained many close friends. Ruth loved her garden, and her work selling ladies clothes at Reitmans, Taylors and Grace Wilson. Ruth also volunteered as school treasurer, sat on Anglican Church committees and spent several years helping with Meals on Wheels. During her later years living in Langley, Ruth spent more time with family and her good friend and caregiver Linda Wyatt. Ruth was a devoted mother, offering unconditional love and support to her four children, their spouses, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Ruth's legacy, the nurturing of important relationships and her courageous character, is evident throughout her family and will be passed on in generations to come. A celebration of Ruth's life was held on February 17th at the Parish of St. George in Langley, B. C."1,6

Biographical Note

"Peter and Janet lived in the Bedeque-Wilmot area. No deed appears on record that would identify the property, but Janet's death notice (in The Royal Gazette for Tuesday, March 25, 1851) gives her place of death as Wilmot Creek; we know that Peter's father owned the farms now in possession of Elmer and Colin Waugh and Alder Large on the south side of Wilmot River. It seems probable that Peter had settled on this tract when Janet died at the age of thirty-two. The four children were dispersed among relatives and the widower went to Shediac, New Brunswick, to manage a tavern-hotel for the widow Hanington. Her husband, George Hanington, had established the tavern in Shediac some years before, and his death left his wife with four young children and the business on her hands. Mrs. Hanington was a Kennedy, her mother a Darby. Her uncle Isaac had married Peter's cousin Mary; the Kennedys, Haningtons, and Darbys would be back and forth from St. Eleanors to Shediac and no doubt this is how Peter, his home broken up by the death of his wife, was secured as successor to Mr. Hanington. Successor he was, not only in the tavern, but in the home. He married the widow in 1853 and continued to operate the tavern, which according to F.R. Sayer, historian of Shediac Cape, stood on property afterward owned by Robert Murray adjoining the old Madras school grounds." More information is listed in the Schurman book page 141.4
