| Birth | William Franklin Glenn 'Frank' Ennis was born on 28 January 1887, in Grenfell, Saskatchewan, CanadaG.1 |
| Note | William Franklin 'Frank' Glen Ennis got his first paying job in 1907, helping build the Wolseley-Reston railway line. Each employee had to supply his own team of horses and his own sleeping quarters. Frank and his Dad built a mini cabin 6' X 10' from scrap lumber and put it on skids. With the railway completed, the village of Baring, Sask. sprang up in 1909. Being handy at working with metal, Frank started a blacksmith shop in Baring. He later moved to Grenfell where business was a little more inviting. Frank always had the desire the invent things from cast-off materials. In 1913 he built a car from scraps he could find, and when he cranked it up one day, it started like a charm! From the picture in his scrapbook you will notice that there are no frills. A car seat bolted to an old buggy frame and a few other bare necessities. It didn't even have floor boards in it, so when he took his cousin, Ellen McDonell, for a ride, her long skirt got caught in the drive shaft. When they got to Ellen's aunt's house, Ellen had to back up into the house because she was missing the back of her skirt. As this incident repeated itself, Frank and his car weren't too popular with the girls! From 1915 to June 1919, Frank served in the Canadian Army overseas. When he returned from overseas, he farmed at Glenavon with his brother, Johnny, until 1925 when he bought his own land. Frank and his mail-order bride, Maude, moved to their new home on the farm. One partner answered the other's lonely ad in the paper and they corresponded for a while before they actually met in person. Maude had the most beautiful dark red hair as a a young girl and as she was telling us, in one of her letters to Frank, she told him that she had something to tell him but that she was afraid that it would ruin their relationship so she'd only tell him in her next letter for fear that she wouldn't hear from him again. Curiosity got the best of Frank and he replied by return mail. Maude sat down and wrote the tragic news that she was a red-head. Now with glitter in her eyes, Maude told us that again Frank replied by return mail to inform her that he would love her all the more for it. Frank and Maude's union was blessed with a son, Ralph. Many a story Frank has told us about the hardships of the depression years, but he always seemed to see a funny side to them. When one-way discs were the latest in farm implements, he built one from scrap metal he had lying around the yard. In 1953, Frank and Maude retired to a house he had built in Glenavon.Their son, Ralph took over the farm. Frank kept himself busy making tables, lamps, and numerous other articles from diamond willow and caraganas. After Frank passed away, Maude lived in their little house for a few years but now (1979) she has her little unit in the Senior Citizens home in Glenavon. |

| Biographical Note | Victor Burton Ennis was born on the 23rd of October, 1894 at his parents'farm. He attended Summerhill School until 1903 when Wolf Hill wasopened. After he left school he stayed on the farm and helped his Father. Vic also enjoyed doing little jobs around the house. One time he evenattempted baking bread while his Mother was out. He soon learned thateven if the flour is a bit cold, he could not warm it up in the pan onthe stove. In 1915, he bought land from his father. With his Dad's help, he wasable to build a house and barn the same year. A year later he movedinto his new house, and his sister Ollie kept house for him until he andMuriel were married in July 1917. On June 23, 1918, Vic was conscripted into the army, being stationed inRegina. He would come home on leave to do the fall work. Muriel wasvery lonely on the farm alone, so took their 4 cows, 1 sow and 10 littlepigs, the hens and 1 horse and moved to her parents' farm. At harvesttime Vic was given time to come to take the crop off. With extensions onhis leave, Armistice was signed before he had to go back. Only 6 dayslater their first child was born. In Vic's early farming days, all field work was done with horses. Helater owned a Titan tractor which he used to break up more land. A fewyears later, he traded a team of horses for a rubber-tired tractor. Nowthat was quite an improvement! Vic and his brother, Nels, bought thefirst combine in the district in 1938. They got the telephone on the farmin 1921. Vic was very handy at making things. In 1922 he trapped enough muskratsand bought a kit from Eaton's to make his first radio. He made severalafter that and sold them. He was good at repairing machinery. Manyneighbors brought the tractors, cars, etc. for him to over haul. Beforethe hydro days, Vic wired the house and barn for lights run offbatteries, and fixed up a windmill to charge the batteries. In 1947, Vic and Muriel sold their farm and moved to Regina where he and2 of his sons, Verne and Al, bought a woodworking shop. There wasn'tenough business to support 3 families, so Al later went to workelsewhere. This shop was sold in 1956. Then Vic and Verne built boatsuntil Vic retired in 1960, and Verne moved to Ontario. In 1965 they sold the house in Regina. Vic and Muriel then spent a yearin Calgary with their youngest daughter, Joyce, and her family. InAugust 1966 they moved back to Grenfell. Vic passed away in 1974.Muriel is now (1979) living in a unit at the senior citizens' home there,and keeps very active.

At the age of 12 she was baking white muffins and baking powderbiscuits, gradually working her way up to baking a gingerbread or a plainwhite cake. She recalls that these cakes were seldom iced. When rhubarbor saskatoons were in season, she would make 5 pies on a Saturday. Laundry, as Fanny remembers, was done with a tub and scrub board until1908, when her Mother got her first washing machine. The fence was theirclothes lines. Fanny's first job was working in a dressmakers shop in Grenfell. Shestayed with her brothers Frank and Johnny who were also working inGrenfell. She sometimes went into homes for a week at a time to dosewing. When her brother Gil went farming, Fanny kept house for him for2 years, then Gil was married. She then kept house for her Father untilshe and Billy were married in 1919. Fanny always had many hobbies. Her major triumphs were probably inneedlework and baking. Over the years she has been a keen competitor inmany categories at Agriculture Fairs, starting at the age of 14 byentering a print dress she made and some baking powder biscuits. Fromthen on she continued showing her many exhibits with consistent successuntil 1972. Among her achievements were prizes won at the C.N.E.

| Name | Margaret Olivia 'Ollie' Ennis was also known as Margaret Olivia 'Ollie' Warwick. |
| Note | Ollie's first recollections of home life were their little log housewhich was plastered on the inside with mud and had a plain dirt floor.The second house which was built of lumber in 1902 was considered to be amansion by the children. Some of the rooms even had linoleum on thefloor. The downstairs rooms were a kitchen and dining room combined anda front room which was used only when company came. There were threerooms upstairs - a small room for the parents, another small room for thetwo girls and a large room for the six boys and the hired man, oldCharlie. Charlie worked for his room and board as his only pay, slept onthe floor on a straw mattress as did the boys. These mattresses were made of flour bag material and tightly stuffed withhay. How we looked forward to having time each year so that we couldre-stuff our mattresses with the fragrant new mown hay. There are also memories about her mother driving to Grenfell, a distanceof 10 miles, with a horse and buggy to trade butter and eggs forgroceries and coal oil for lamps and lanterns. Butter was worth about 7¢per pound eggs were 7¢ per dozen in those days. The kids all ran togreet their mother when she returned from town to see who would get thegum drop off the spout of the coal oil can. Ollie remembers getting therefirst one time and getting the candy. It was a bit oily tasting but atreat as they didn't get many candies. One winter Ollie and Fanny decided to catch muskrat to make some money.They set their traps on their way to school and picked up their catch ontheir way home. They skinned their catch and stretched and dried thehides on homemade stretchers. One day they were thrilled to find a minkin their traps. Fanny did the skinning while Ollie held the animal bythe legs but this mink turned out to be a smelly critter and Ollie was atthe wrong end of the beast When they got back the returns from theirfurs, the girls decided to buy black gunmetal wrist watches worth $4.99each and ready made dresses worth $2.98 each. It was the first time theyhad had a boughten dress. John Ennis told his children that work never killed anybody. Olliebelieves that this is true if you go at it the right way and enjoy doingit.

Jean is 2nd born toBilly and Fanny, see 'ENNIS HISTORY', by Jean Agnes (nee Ferguson) Smith,published by Jean in1979, Information on Jean can be found on pages 2 -9, 65, 66. The following is a copy of a letter that Jean had typewritten and mailedto John Jay Ruhlman -- -- 8868 184 St. Surrey, B. C. Can. V3T 4W2 Dear Mr. Ruhlman: I have a letter written by you June 29, 1970 to my aunt, Mrs. JohnWarwick of Grenfell, Sask. Canada. She was ill at the time she receivedit and it got misplaced but with her better health now, she found it andforwarded it to me yesterday. I am working on our Ennis family tree and hoping to get enoughmaterial to have a book of some sort made for our next family reunion ofthe John Ennis descendents in 1980. I started with Robert Strain Ennis,the father of Frances Jane Coy. My statistics from then forward arealmost complete except for the Coys. I have written to Mrs. L. R.Fletcher of Seattle and we are to exchange info. I have sent her oursbut she hasn't sent theirs yet as she said she couldn't get the info. ofRoy's family. Now I hate to be pushy but time goes by so quickly andwith each tiny piece of info. being so difficult to come by, I am afraidI'll never make our deadline unless info. starts to come in faster. Now Ibelieve you are the one who is handing the info. on to Mrs. Fletcher sodoes it help any to know that someone else is digging for family info. aswell ? I am trying to go further back than R. S. Ennis but this info. isdifficult to find. Of late, I have been reading micro film copies ofcensus papers of 1851, 1861, and 1871 of Counties Grey and Muskoka inOntario. Tiny bits of info came to light from this. I have phoned Ennis' in phone books and while in Victoria, found adescendent of R. S. Ennis' brother who was lost in New York when theyarrived from County Armagh, Ireland in 1846. They are now working ontheir family history to add to our book. I am very anxious to find the names of R. S. Ennis's brothers andparents as I have a family tree of an aunt of Jack Ennis and Frances Coybut don't know exactly where it fits in. We visited May Barber this past winter and many of her first cousinslast summer on our way to Ontario where we were seeking family info. Onthis trip we found one of R. S. Ennis' farms in Muskoka Co. atBracebridge at the land titles office so drove out to see it and talkedto folks in the neighborhood. One half mile from his farm is an EnnisIsland and Ennis Bay. A Wm. Ennis lived directly across the road fromhim. I believe this Wm. could be a brother of his. I have bits of 4other Ennis families in Ont. but they don't seem to fit with our familyunless it is further back. Besides family statistics we are gathering family history andpictures. I have spent all of my spare time at this project since Sept.1974 and will continue to do so until the project is complete. I do hope that this letter is forwarded to you wherever you may be,as I am very anxious to receive your family statistics, history and anysuggestions you may have on getting further family info. Please don'tlet this go to press without the very important Coy branch of our familyhistory. R. S.
