Notes:

By the time he was 18, David Nunn had four convictions for poaching, according to the Bury Prison Register dated 23 Sep 1846.
The fourth conviction earned him a fine of 20 shillings, costs 13 shillings. It's not clear if the 20 shillings included the costs but either way it was a substantial fine for "an offence against the Game Laws at Chevington".
We can surmise that he may have been poaching to feed himself and other family members but whatever the truth, it was against the law and he was caught. The record describes David as 5ft 5ins, pale complexion, brown hair, grey eyes, long visage, of good health with clean clothes. He could not read or write.
Four years later, it was reported in the Bury and Norwich Post on 16 April 1851, p2, in a list of convictions at Chevington that ... David Nunn and Wm. Death, offence against game laws at Chevington; 2 months.
So, he spent time in jail for his misdeamours as well.

My take on Napoleon's life: https://oznunns.com.au/napoleon-nunn/

---

The following letters were written in response to the accidental death of BK1257 Alfred Nunn, son of Abraham Nunn.
The Napoleon Nunn mentioned was the base child of a Naomi Nunn, daughter of John Nunn and Sarah (Sally) Silverstone. There is no relationship yet established between the two Nunn boys although a family connection seems highly likely.

This letter published in the Bury and Norwich Post, and East Anglian, November 29, 1843, was in response to one published earlier regarding Alfred Nunn's accidental death.

Alleged ignorance at Chevington and Whepstead.
To the editor.
Sir, - Will you oblige me by inserting in your next paper the following statement, which I trust will be found a sufficient answer to the letter of "One of the Jury," on the inquest upon the body of Alfred Nunn, appearing in your last.
Napoleon Nunn, who occasioned the death of Alfred, is not a son of poor parents; he has been brought up by his grandfather, until lately an occupier of a farm of above hundred acres in Chevington, and never was an object for admission into a Charity School.
Abraham, the father of Alfred, has had seven children, of whom six have been taught to read, and received religious instruction in my schools; the remaining one is afflicted and incapable of learning.
All poor parents in the parish have the opportunity offered them of placing their children, at the age of seven, in the day-school, where they may remain at least three years, and be thence transferred to the Sunday School, where they are allowed to continue till the age of fifteen, or more: the object of the Sunday School being chiefly religious instruction; and, although the parents are often compelled to put their boys to work at a very early age, and, I grieve more to say, that there are some that neglect or refuse to send their children to school, who consequently grow up ignorant and vicious; yet, I believe that the number taught, about sixty, is quite equal in proportion to that prevailing in other places; the schools are supported by me and members of my family, without assistance from any endowment or Society.
The other two boys, Henry and Arthur Wittam, who were examined on the inquest, aged thirteen and ten, live in Whepstead, and belong to the Sunday School there; but being at a great distance from the church, and often necessarily employed on the Sunday in the care of stock, &c., their attendance has been very irregular, and they have but little knowledge of their catechisms; the eldest, however, can read the Testament decently, and has a distinct knowledge of retribution hereafter; and stated that his parents always instructed him so.
It cannot, therefore, be said, that these boys "have not the remote idea of a future state."
Your obedient servant, John White, Chevington Rectory, Nov.24, 1843.

---

The offending letter follows: Bury and Norwich Post 22 November 1843
Ignorance of the peasantry. To the Editor.
Sir, - You will no doubt report in your columns of this week the result of an inquest held at the Suffolk Hospital on Wednesday last. The facts are simply these: that one boy carelessly caused the death of another boy by a gun-shot wound.
But the grave and important question is the worse than gothic ignorance in which the rustic population of Whepstead and Chevington appear to exist.
The coroner in his charge was justifiably severe in describing the absence of all moral instruction, were removed but by a slight degree from the position of a savage state.
One lad, the principal in the accident, acknowledged that he did not know the Lord's Prayer; that he had no knowledge of the name of the clergyman of the parish, and, in fact, that he knew nothing of responsibility with respect to good or evil.
The two other lads stated they belonged to the Sunday School; they knew the Lord's Prayer, but had not the most remote idea of a future state.
And is this the education of the people, for which so much money is paid?
If it is, look at the result; one harmless lad is hurried into eternity, and the innocent cause of it. untutored and uninstructed, knows nothing of the responsibility of hastening his companion to another world.
But are the clergy, the paid educators of the people, wholly blameless? Was the rector or curate of these villages wholly ignorant of the existence of these boys, or were they negligent in endeavouring to lead their minds and cultivate them to the pursuit of virtue, or leaving them in reckless idleness to tread the path of infamy and crime?
Sir, we frequently marvel at the spread of crime in the rural districts, at incendiarism, and acts of violence; but when we see the germ of human intellect thus untutored, neglected, and even crushed, - can we wonder that the mind, thus brutalized, its energies cramped and contracted, should in the moment of supposed or real injuries rush to the perpetration of wild and savage revenge?
Yet when any plan of educating the people is proposed, it is generally met with all the fury of orthodox resentment?
Take this instance of proof of the careful teaching of the rustic population, and it there is a feeling of moral reflection amongst your readers, they will in unison with me blush to think, that within a range of six miles from a town like Bury, with a church in the village, and, I dare say, a tolerable benefice, that human beings should be found, whose ignorance, as far as Christianity and morality are concerned, would disgrace the savages of the wild, or the Hindoo worshippers in India.
Yours respectfully, One of the Jury.
[We insert this letter for the lamentable facts which it relates, but not admitting the justice of all its inferences. Unless a minister had the power of compelling the people to come, and send their children to be instructed, there may be instances of such ignorance as is here described, in spite of all the efforts of the most faithful pastor. - ED.]

Notes:

Based on following report, Azariah did not want defendants to be harshly treated:
Bury Free Press 14 August 1869, p5
STEALING STRAW AT HAWSTEAD.- Lucy Bumpstead and Sarah Holden, married women, Hawstead, were charged with stealing a quantity of straw.
Azariah Prewer, farmer, Whepstead, deposed that last Monday night he had some straw on his father's farm, at Hawstead, and having had some suspicion he secreted himself about nine o'clock near the stack, and saw the two defendants take some straw off the strack; Mrs Bumpstead tied some up in a mantle, and Mrs Holden was about to do the same; there was one pound a half or two points of straw in the mantle; the stack was in a field adjoining the road at Melling Green; the defendants both asked him to forgive them, but as he had several times had straw stolen he thought he must summon them as an example; he did not however wish to be severe upoon them, as they had families.
The defendants said they had only taken a little straw to light their fires.
The Bench retired to consider the case, and after a long absence, they returned into court, and the Clerk asked the prisoners if they consented to have the case tried at once or preferred to have it sent to the Quarter Sessions.
They chose to have it settled at once, and pleaded guilty.
The Chairman said Mr Prewer was quite justified in bringing the case forward, but as he had said he wished them to be treated leniently, the Bench would pass what might seems to be, but what was really not, a light sentence.
They could be called up to receive the judgment of the Court at some future time if they offended again in any way.
This conviction would be recorded against them, and if ever they come up again they would be liable to penal servitude.
He hoped this would be a caution to others not to commit such offences as this, of which there were unfortunately too many complaints.

BUNDAMBA DISTRICT DINMORE. Thursday.
The Late Mr. A. Nunn.-
The death of Mr. Albert Nunn took place at his late residence, Dinmore, on Saturday morning, at the age of 69 years, from miner's phthisis.
Seven years ago he relinquished work at the New Chum Colliery, where he had been employed for a number of years.
He worked underground for a long while, but in later years he was engaged on the pit-top as a carpenter.
He was born at Dinmore, and was the fourth son of the late Mr. David Nunn one of the pioneers of the district, and, one of a family of eight brothers and three sisters.
He took a keen interest in cricket. In the early days he played for the old Dinmore Cricket Club, also with Whitwood Cricket Club. His services as an umpire were much sought after.
Fishing was one of, his favourite pastimes. His widow. and two married daughters Mrs. J. Perrret (Booval) and Mrs A. Freeman (Dinmore survive him. There are also five grandchildren.
The funeral took played on Sunday afternoon. Rev, J.E.Everitt conducting the services at the house and the Ipswich Cemetery.

Saturday's Cricket. -: Favourable weather for cricket was experienced on Saturday. The Whitwood-A.Stars match was, of course, the chief draw, and was watched by a large crowd of spectators. The results of the play in the various matches are given below : SENIOR DIVISION-IVETT TROPHY. STARS v. WHITWOOD A. Between 600 and 800 spectators were present on Saturday afternoon on the St. Helens ground, where two cup-matches were being played, but the chief attraction was the contest between the Stars and the Whitwoodian champions, a large contingent of Ipswichian folk having journeyed thither in cabs and other conveyances. There was also a very fair sprinkling of ladies, and the scene all round presented a pretty picture of animation. The loveliest of weather prevailed from about 2 o'clock until the stumps were drawn, and the cricket display during that time was of the most interesting description. The felding of the Whitwood team was generally very good, the individual efforts of Dan. Carew and A. B. Macgregor calling forth frequent applause, and Charlie Hooper, as is usual with him, gave a careful and really creditable exposition of batting. Play was commenced at about 3 o'clock, Messrs. A. J. Stephenson and R. M'Gill having taken up their positions as umpires, the not-out batsmen being Hooper and Jones. Harry Jones took the strike to Burns, whose first ball nicely placed into the hands of Arthur Nunn at square-leg; 1-7-10. This was a bad start for the Stars, but was duly appreciated by the Whitwood followers. P. Real was the next man, and Burns's second ball came in very nastily from the leg and struck Real in the stomach, causing him to feel somewhat uncomfortable for a time. Whalley opened from the railway end, and both batsmen scored 3 each off the second and third balls respectively, and shortly after Hooper spanked a ball of Burns's beautifully to leg for 4. The Stars followers now began to be jubilant, especially when M'Gregor misjudged a lofty hit, by Real off Whalley, at long-off, the fieldeman over running the catch. Real was, however, well taken at mid-wicket off Burns by Dan Carew -2-12-32 - the retiring batsman having made several pretty carpet drives. Pearson came in to assist Hooper to run a 3-er off Burns and 4 for a fine drive off Whalley, when, after making a single, the Lockyer-cum-Laidley crack batsman was cleaned bowled off his pads by Burns; 3-1-40. M'Murdy was nearly stumped by Thompson off the first ball he received from Burns, and, directly afterwards, he put up a lofty hit off Whalley at mid-wicket but W. Linsday could not get back to it. When the score stood at 50 Lindsay relieved J. Burns, who, in turn, took the ball from Whalley, who then came on at Lindsay's end. M'Murdy did not seem "at home" at the crease, and skied one off Burns to cover-point, but Heiner could not get to it to effect the catch ; he was smartly stumped by Thompson off Whalley; 4-4-52. J. J. Byrne and Hooper ran the score up to 66, when Lindsay relieved Burns, and the fast bowler Lindsay cracked Byrne's fingers (where were the batting gloves?), the batsman dropping the willow in an instant, shortly after which he was splendidly taken in the slips by Dan Carew with one hand, off Lindsay; 6-4-69. Parkinson was the next man, and commenced operations at once, Parkie seeming to like Whalley's slow pitched balls, negotiating several braces of them. The score was increased to 90 when he snicked one off Whalley into Burns's hands at slip; 6-12-90. Once Parkie had a narrow squeak of being ran out, when, without waiting for the umpire's decision, Whalley hauled his hat to the winds and yelled, "Out! Up with the ball." Mr. Stephenson, however, cannot be bluffed that way. Caffrey filled the vacancy, when Arthur Nunn relieved Whalley at the top end, and J. M. Campbell took the ball from Lindsay at the end nearest the railway. Caffrey negoiated a pretty hit to square-leg off Nunn's first ball, some laughter being caused by a lady nearby trying to stop the career of the ball with her parasol. Only 2 were run for the hit. After 5 more runs had been secured, during which a couple of appeals were made for leg-before decisions to Caffrey, Arthur Nunn succeeded in clean bowling Hooper with an excellent length ball: 7-65-107. Hooper was loudly applauded on returning to the pavilion, his contribution being marked by steadiness, and the only chance he gave was when his score reached 23, he then putting up a lofty snick off Burns behind the wickets, which Sid. Nunn tried for but failed to hold. Lossberg went in simply to put up a hit in Whalley's direction off Nunn, and he came back with a blob; 8-0-107. H. Campbell was the next man, and he and Caffrey kept the "ball rolling" fairly well, until D. Carew relieved J. M. Campbell, previous to which T. Campbell drove one back right into Arthur Nunn's hands, and, in his anxiety, the bowler failed to accept the chance, but Bill Lindsay directly afterwards effected a beautiful catch at leg off Dan Carew, thus disposing of H. Campbell: 9-7-124. H. Dalton was the last man, and Caffrey negotiated a brace off Carew, who then clean bowled the tail batsman: 10-17-128. Caffrey playing in nice style for the second highest score, and Captain Dalton carried out his bat for nil. Not much time was lost, and J. Burns and Fred Thompson opened the innings on behalf of the Whitwood Club, P. Real and W. M'Murdy being the bowlers, Burns taking the strike to Real, opposite whom the Whitwoodian trundler did not apparently feel at all comfortable, and after making 6 he was neatly taken in the slips by M'Murdy off Real; 1-6-8. Dan Carew filled the vacancy only to see Fred Thompson cleaned bowled by M'Murdy; 2-2-8. Whalley then joined partnerehip with Dan Carew, which was not dissolved at call of time, although the first ball Whalley received from M'Murdy he, it is alleged, snicked it into Charlie Hooper's hands, when a unanimous appeal from the Stars rent the air, but Mr M'Gill's decision was in favour of the batsman, Whalley again distinguishing himself by a little "bluffing ;" he, however, then became scorer-in-chief, lifting M'Murdy in line style twice over the fence for a fourer each time. In the meantime there were several appeals for leg-before decisions, and Whalley played an uppish one in the slips off M'Murdy, Parkinson trying his hardest to take it. When the score stood at 27, Pearson relieved M'Murdy and had only one over, after which time was called, Whalley being not out 16, and Dan Carew not out 5, the score being-two wickets down for 33 runs. Bowling for the Whitwoodians, J. Burns secured three wickets for 26 runs (he also bowled down seven maiden overs), Dan. Carew two for 12, J. Whalley two for 54, W. Lindsay one for 5, Arthur Nunn two for 14, and J. M. Campbell none for 8 (he also bowled two no balls; there were seven sundries). Bowling for the Stars, P. Real captured one wicket for 9 runs, W. M'Murdy one for 19 runs, and C. Pearson no wickets for one run; there were 4 sundries.

Notes:

Saturday's Cricket. -: Favourable weather for cricket was experienced on Saturday. The Whitwood-A.Stars match was, of course, the chief draw, and was watched by a large crowd of spectators. The results of the play in the various matches are given below : SENIOR DIVISION-IVETT TROPHY. STARS v. WHITWOOD A. Between 600 and 800 spectators were present on Saturday afternoon on the St. Helens ground, where two cup-matches were being played, but the chief attraction was the contest between the Stars and the Whitwoodian champions, a large contingent of Ipswichian folk having journeyed thither in cabs and other conveyances. There was also a very fair sprinkling of ladies, and the scene all round presented a pretty picture of animation. The loveliest of weather prevailed from about 2 o'clock until the stumps were drawn, and the cricket display during that time was of the most interesting description. The felding of the Whitwood team was generally very good, the individual efforts of Dan. Carew and A. B. Macgregor calling forth frequent applause, and Charlie Hooper, as is usual with him, gave a careful and really creditable exposition of batting. Play was commenced at about 3 o'clock, Messrs. A. J. Stephenson and R. M'Gill having taken up their positions as umpires, the not-out batsmen being Hooper and Jones. Harry Jones took the strike to Burns, whose first ball nicely placed into the hands of Arthur Nunn at square-leg; 1-7-10. This was a bad start for the Stars, but was duly appreciated by the Whitwood followers. P. Real was the next man, and Burns's second ball came in very nastily from the leg and struck Real in the stomach, causing him to feel somewhat uncomfortable for a time. Whalley opened from the railway end, and both batsmen scored 3 each off the second and third balls respectively, and shortly after Hooper spanked a ball of Burns's beautifully to leg for 4. The Stars followers now began to be jubilant, especially when M'Gregor misjudged a lofty hit, by Real off Whalley, at long-off, the fieldeman over running the catch. Real was, however, well taken at mid-wicket off Burns by Dan Carew -2-12-32 - the retiring batsman having made several pretty carpet drives. Pearson came in to assist Hooper to run a 3-er off Burns and 4 for a fine drive off Whalley, when, after making a single, the Lockyer-cum-Laidley crack batsman was cleaned bowled off his pads by Burns; 3-1-40. M'Murdy was nearly stumped by Thompson off the first ball he received from Burns, and, directly afterwards, he put up a lofty hit off Whalley at mid-wicket but W. Linsday could not get back to it. When the score stood at 50 Lindsay relieved J. Burns, who, in turn, took the ball from Whalley, who then came on at Lindsay's end. M'Murdy did not seem "at home" at the crease, and skied one off Burns to cover-point, but Heiner could not get to it to effect the catch ; he was smartly stumped by Thompson off Whalley; 4-4-52. J. J. Byrne and Hooper ran the score up to 66, when Lindsay relieved Burns, and the fast bowler Lindsay cracked Byrne's fingers (where were the batting gloves?), the batsman dropping the willow in an instant, shortly after which he was splendidly taken in the slips by Dan Carew with one hand, off Lindsay; 6-4-69. Parkinson was the next man, and commenced operations at once, Parkie seeming to like Whalley's slow pitched balls, negotiating several braces of them. The score was increased to 90 when he snicked one off Whalley into Burns's hands at slip; 6-12-90. Once Parkie had a narrow squeak of being ran out, when, without waiting for the umpire's decision, Whalley hauled his hat to the winds and yelled, "Out! Up with the ball." Mr. Stephenson, however, cannot be bluffed that way. Caffrey filled the vacancy, when Arthur Nunn relieved Whalley at the top end, and J. M. Campbell took the ball from Lindsay at the end nearest the railway. Caffrey negoiated a pretty hit to square-leg off Nunn's first ball, some laughter being caused by a lady nearby trying to stop the career of the ball with her parasol. Only 2 were run for the hit. After 5 more runs had been secured, during which a couple of appeals were made for leg-before decisions to Caffrey, Arthur Nunn succeeded in clean bowling Hooper with an excellent length ball: 7-65-107. Hooper was loudly applauded on returning to the pavilion, his contribution being marked by steadiness, and the only chance he gave was when his score reached 23, he then putting up a lofty snick off Burns behind the wickets, which Sid. Nunn tried for but failed to hold. Lossberg went in simply to put up a hit in Whalley's direction off Nunn, and he came back with a blob; 8-0-107. H. Campbell was the next man, and he and Caffrey kept the "ball rolling" fairly well, until D. Carew relieved J. M. Campbell, previous to which T. Campbell drove one back right into Arthur Nunn's hands, and, in his anxiety, the bowler failed to accept the chance, but Bill Lindsay directly afterwards effected a beautiful catch at leg off Dan Carew, thus disposing of H. Campbell: 9-7-124. H. Dalton was the last man, and Caffrey negotiated a brace off Carew, who then clean bowled the tail batsman: 10-17-128. Caffrey playing in nice style for the second highest score, and Captain Dalton carried out his bat for nil. Not much time was lost, and J. Burns and Fred Thompson opened the innings on behalf of the Whitwood Club, P. Real and W. M'Murdy being the bowlers, Burns taking the strike to Real, opposite whom the Whitwoodian trundler did not apparently feel at all comfortable, and after making 6 he was neatly taken in the slips by M'Murdy off Real; 1-6-8. Dan Carew filled the vacancy only to see Fred Thompson cleaned bowled by M'Murdy; 2-2-8. Whalley then joined partnerehip with Dan Carew, which was not dissolved at call of time, although the first ball Whalley received from M'Murdy he, it is alleged, snicked it into Charlie Hooper's hands, when a unanimous appeal from the Stars rent the air, but Mr M'Gill's decision was in favour of the batsman, Whalley again distinguishing himself by a little "bluffing ;" he, however, then became scorer-in-chief, lifting M'Murdy in line style twice over the fence for a fourer each time. In the meantime there were several appeals for leg-before decisions, and Whalley played an uppish one in the slips off M'Murdy, Parkinson trying his hardest to take it. When the score stood at 27, Pearson relieved M'Murdy and had only one over, after which time was called, Whalley being not out 16, and Dan Carew not out 5, the score being-two wickets down for 33 runs. Bowling for the Whitwoodians, J. Burns secured three wickets for 26 runs (he also bowled down seven maiden overs), Dan. Carew two for 12, J. Whalley two for 54, W. Lindsay one for 5, Arthur Nunn two for 14, and J. M. Campbell none for 8 (he also bowled two no balls; there were seven sundries). Bowling for the Stars, P. Real captured one wicket for 9 runs, W. M'Murdy one for 19 runs, and C. Pearson no wickets for one run; there were 4 sundries.

Notes:

Dinmore Letter. Obituary. Quite a gloom was cast ever the district when it became known that Mr. Sid. Nunn had passed away. He was a victim of the recent epidemic. Deceased was the seventh son of the late Mr. and Mrs David Nunn. The Nunn family are amongst the oldest families of Dinmore, and are well known throughout the whole of West Moreton. Deceased was married to the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E Hawkins, also of Dinmore, and had resided here the whole of his life. During his younger days he was a great cricket enthusiast, having played with the Whitwood Club. For many years deceased worked as a miner at the New Chum Collery. Some 12 months ago it became necessary for him to leave the mine owing to sickness, and he found employment at Messrs. Bognuda, Hudson and Co's pottery where he remained until the protracted dry spell made it necessary for the works to close. Deceased again worked as the New Chum pit up to the time he was taken ill. Deceased was only 46 years of age. He leaves a heartbroken wife and a family of 13, three of whom are married. The deepest sympathy is felt for the sorrowing family who have so suddenly been bereaved of the guardian of the home. The funeral was held on Monday afternoon. A service was conducted by the Rev. A. Tempest, who also conducted the service at the graveside.

Notes:

Bury Free Press 15 May 1943, page 6. A pioneer missionary. West Suffolk man's work in Canada.
The death is reported from Sudbury, Ontario, of Canon George Prewer, a noted cleric of the Anglican Church in Canada, who was born in 1865 near Bury St. Edmund's, being son of Mr and Mrs. A.Prewer. A brother, Mr E.E.Prewer, resides at Riverside, Brockley.
A Canadian paper describes him as "one of the North Country's most colourful characters."
He farmed for a time with his father in the Whepstead district, went to Canada in 1885, and entered the Church there after studying the language of the Cree Indians, his first appointment being the far-flung parish then known as Rat Portage, in the Lake of the Woods territory and now known as Kenora. He built the foundations of the Anglican Church in that vast territory and held subsquent appointments in which the directed the affairs and worship of white and Indian people.
His work was marked by progress and explansion all round. Indian schools, parishes, stores and roads being opened up and developed under the sway of his influence, and the natives trusting and relying upon him implicity. Returning to Chapleau, the new school stands as a monument to his work.
In 1923 he went to Sudbury, Ont., as general missionary and canon organiser for the western section of his diocese, and in this 60th year, forsook canoe and portage, foot and horse travel, for the more modern and speedy aeroplane.
The Canadian Governtment leaned heavily upon him in administration of Indian affairs and he spoke both the Cree and Objibway languages in 50 years of life devoted to the welfare of the Indians and to the spread of the Gospel, which made him of the Church's most energetic and enthusiastic missionaries.

Obituary,The Sudbury Daily Star, 1943
DEATH OF CANON PREWER ENDS EVENTFUL LIFE
Ministered for 50 Years in North County
The death late yesterday afternoon, March 10, in St. Joseph's Hospital, Sudbury, of Canon George Prewer, noted cleric of the Anglican Church in Canada, removes one of the North Country's most colorful characters.
Beginning his work at the time of the Riel Rebellion the zealour evangelizer had carried the gospel, by canoe, portage and foot, and more recently by airplane, to Indians and isolated settlements of the vast North hinterland from Manitoulin Island to Winnipeg and Hudson bay for upwards of 50 years. He had been the church's most energetic and enthusiastic missionary. If a record had been made of his travels in the interests of Christianity it would undoubtedly show him as outstanding in Canada, at least, in the number of miles covered, per person solaced.
Canon Prewer had been in failing health for some two years, and recently suffered an attack of influenza from which he failed to rally. The survivors, and immediate members of the family who were with him during his last illness, are; Mrs. William-Martin (Marguerite), of 104 Drinkwater St., Sudbury; Miss Ann Elizabeth Prewer, of Newport News, Va., and Lieut. Vincent H. Prewer, stationed at Camp Borden. His wife, the former Mary Vincent, daughter of the late Archdeacon Vincent of Fort Albany, predeceased him in 1936. They were married while the bride was a student at Bishop Strachan School in Toronto, from where his daughter Marguerite later graduated. Miss Ann Prewer attended St. Hilda's College, a branch of the Univeristy of Toronto. In addition there is a sister, Mrs. A. Farmer, of Toronto; a brother, Aubrey Prewer, of Reno, Nev., and two sisters and one brother in England.
Canon Prewer was one laborer in the vineyard who saw his work bear fruit. Indian schools, parishes, stores and roads were opened up and developed under the sway of his influence and altogether a great part of the colonization of Norther Ontario and Norther Manitoba was due directly to his efforts. The Indians learned to trust and rely on him. One instance of this mutual respect and co-operation is typical of his life. It occurred in 1923 just after his retirement to Sudbury. A few days prior to Christmas that year, from a remote reserve, came word sent by an Indian chief asking Canon Prewer to hold services on Sunday. The Indians had returned from trap lines and they wanted him to conduct divine worship. Other arrangements had been made for that particular Sunday by the canon, but he cancelled all, and did not fail them. With dog teams, the Indians were at the train to meet him and he spent that Christmas with them in the deep bush of the Rainy River district.
Canon Prewer was born near Bury St Edmunds (Suffolk County), England, on January 14, 1865, a son of Mr. and Mrs. A. Prewer. His birthplace was the locale of Dickens' famous Pickwick Papers. He attended school there until 14 years of age, and after farming for a time with his father, came to Canada in 1885, the year of the second Riel Rebellion. (Among the late canon's extensive collection of Indian mementoes and relics, and early Canadiana gathered through a lifetime of service in the Ontario and Manitoba areas, is one of the guns used by Louis Riel at the time of his first revolt, 1870. It was taken from him at that time by a Hudson's Bay Company factor and given to the canon years afterward as a souvenir of his work in the factor's particular district of Manitoba.)
A youth of 20 years, Canon Prewer arrived at Winnipeg in the autumn of 1885, determined to enter the ministry of his church, an ambition which found ready encouragement from the prefect of St. John's College, at Winnipeg immediately, undoubtedly as a test of his zeal, ability and endurance, and remained there for three years, teaching and studying the language of the Cree Indians under the auspices of the Church of England. He returned to Winnipeg in 1888 and set about to prepare himself for the ministry, graduating in divinity in 1892 from St. John's. He was ordained by the late Robert Machray who lived to become primate of all Canada and who was one of Canon Prewer's sources of encouragement and inspiration in the early years of his Christian endeavors.
His first appointment after ordination was to the far-flung parish then known at Rat Portage, in the Lake of the Woods territory, and now known as Kenora. He was stationed at Dinowick and saw communities established at Dryden and Ignace, as well as the building of churches in all three centres. At the same time he established a new missionary outpost at Lac Suel. He truly built the foundations of the Anglican Church in that vast territory, which have grown into enduring structures of influence today.
At the end of seven years the territory was ready for sub-division and the creation of two new parishes, with Canon Prewer being asked to move eastward to greater duties. In 1899 he became rector of St. John's Anglican Church at Chapleau, where he remained for three years. In 1902 he was appointed rector of church endeavors on Manitoulin Island, being stationed at Sheguiandah, from where he directed the affairs and worship of both white and Indian people. His missionary endeavors branched out to all parts of Manitoulin and to Whitefish and Birch Island on the mainland, and again his efforts were blessed by marked progress and achievement in his faith.
In 1913 he was prevailled upon to return to Chapleau and undertake the reconstruction of work across a wide territory from that point. His success may probably be best measured by the new Indian school which stands as a monument today to his work in Chapleau. It was a feeble institution when he took over as principal, but within five years it had developed to such an extent that there was an enrollment of 102 pupils under the supervision of a large staff. Buildings had been erected, with the assistance of government grants, to the value of $150,000. The department appreciated the worth of the school to this extent, which was an unusual amount for a subsidy in those days. Apart from the usual governement school grants, accorded every public school, the Chapleau institution during Canon Prewer's administration became self-supporting.
During this time, Canon Prewer was also the agent of the Diocese of Moosonee, but he retired from his active labors centred in Chapleau in 1923, and came to Sudbury to reside. For the years from 1923 to 1930 he continued as general missionary and canon organizer for the western section of the diocese, being particularly concerned with the progress of his church in Gogama, Foleyet and Elsas.
It was during these years, when near his 60th milestone, that the canon forsook canoe and portage, foot and horse travel, for the more modern and efficient airplane. He made many flights of mercy to distant Indian settlements, to settle distress and difficulties which no other man could have handled.
An interpreter of note, he proved a stout staff upon which the Canadian government leaned heavily in its administration of Indian affairs. For years he accompanied the official Indian agent in the paying of treaty money, and in settling the many differences which came up from time to time between red men and white. He spoke both the Cree and Ojibway tongues.
Fifty years of his life were devoted to the welfare of the Indians of this division of Canada and to the spread of Christian gospel. The imprint of his teaching and example will be found in thousands of lives today. He was one of the colonizing spirits of civiliazation in the district. Now he has gone to his eternal rest.
The remains are resting at the Jackson and Barnard Funeral Home with services to be held in the Church of the Epiphany to Friday, March 12, at 2 p.m., under the direction of the rector, Rev. P. Beattie.

One small town houses two Anglican churches
By Julie Strain
Sheguiandah-The little town of Sheguiandah, a few miles south of Little Current on Highway 6, has the unique feature of having two Anglican churches.
It all began in 1862, when Manitoulin was thrown open to white settlers. The Sheguiandah and the Sucker Creek Indian reserves were set aside for the protestant Natives. Reverend Jabez Waters Sims, one of the first missionaries to Manitoulin, moved with the Native people to Sheguiandah.
Historical document at the Little Current-Howland Centennial Museum say that Reverend Sims immediately erected a combination church and school. However, it is not clear whether they were built on the present day sight or by Ten Mile Point, where the priest lived.
Reverend Sims had a large parish extending from Manitowaning to Killarney and from Whitefish River to Sagamuck, including Little Current and Birch Island.
According to Reverend Clifford Dee, the present day Anglican priest for the Sheguiandah, Sucker Creek and little Current area, Reverend Sims drowned in 1869 while on his way to a baptism in Killarney.
The history books state that Reverend Sims was buried in the churchyard of St. Andrew's after a large funeral. However, it is unclear whether St. Andrew's was the combination church and school or the church that is standing today. This is why it is unknown when the present day church of St. Andrew's was constructed.
Upon the death of Reverend Sims, Reverend Sims, Reverend Roland Hill came to Sheguiandah and took up Reverend Sims' parish. Hoever, the only stayed for seven years before he went to the Mindemoya area to take up farming. Sandy McGillivary, a councilor of the Town of Little Current, said that he heard Reverend Hill left the church because "he had a falling out with the bishop."
Reverend Frederick Frost then came to Sheguiandah and it was during his time in the area that St. Peters Church is found on the right hand side of Green Bay Road just after the four corners in Sheguiandah. It was built in 1883 and Reverend Frost acted as priest for both of the churches. As well, he also travelled to Little Current to act as a missionary.
Reverend Frost was very interested in the Ojibway culture and during his time on the Island wrote a book called Sketches of Indian Life. As well, he translated a hymnary book into the Ojibway language.
It is unknown why Sheguiandah has two Anglican churches. Reverend Dee felt that it was possible that two churches were needed to accommodate the the size of the congregation. "I know there was a lot of going back and forth," he said. "The congregations did mix."
Reverend Frost's home burnt down while he was in Sheguiandah and the basement containing brick work is the only structure remaining. It can be seen by wandering to the right of St. Andrew's church. Reverend Dee said that it was at this time that the rectory was moved off the reserve and to the village of Sheguiandah.
Vivian Baxter, a member of St. Peter's congregation all her life, remembers the rectory being Jim Ferguson's present day home on Sheguiandah Bay. She recalls the first minister to live there as Reverend George Prewer and the last to be reverend Frederick Jewel.
St. Andrew's, situated in the heart of the Native Reserve and St. Peter's, situated off the highway in the village of Sheguiandah, are very similar in description. Both have a small entrance way, a bell, a working pump organ and an almost identical alter. As well, both churches host a plaque in memory of Reverend Frost's wife, and an array of photographs of the priests and congregations through the years.
The only feature in St. Andrew's that recognizes its Native congregation is a pair of hand-made Native dolls by Simon Esquimaux at the front of the church. As well, Mr. Esquimaux' paintings of churches are hanging on the walls.
Reverend Dee attributed the lack of Native symbols within the church as a part of the churches' history. St. Andrew's was built, he said, "Before Native spirituality was recognized. There was a time when any type of Native spirituality was demonic." He explained, "That's something that has changed now, at least in some parts of the church, so that there's a blending in terms of Christian work."
Mrs. Baxter said "St. Peter's unique feature is the beautiful alter and cross. She said St. Peter's is the church where she feels comfortable. "It's just kind of cosy," she explained.
The St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, better known as Cold Springs Church, celebrated its 103 birthday this year. over 100 people from Little Current, Rockville, Honora, Green Bay and across the Island travelled to the tiny church on Highway 540 last Sunday to participate in the once a year service.

Notes:

A native of Whepstead drowned in Canada
The Wabigoon Star, of the 12th October, published at Wabigoon, Ontario, Canada, contains particulars of the sad circumstances attending the death of Mr A.R.A.Prewer, the sixth son of Mr Azariah Prewer, of Whepstead, aged 25, who has lost his life by drowning in Elm Bay.
The deceased left England four years ago for Canada.
He was greatly beloved and respected by all who knew him, and his death is deeply mourned by his sorrowing parents for whom much sympathy is expressed.
The account of his sad death is as follows:
Last Saturday the news reached town that Mr Aga Prewer, of Elm Bay had been missing since Tuesday, and everything pointed to the fact that he had been drowned that night.
On Tuesday he had been out with his team to in a load of potatoes from the field and returned just at dusk.
Learning that the S.S.Widgeon, from Wabigoon, was in the bay at the fishing camp, he seems to have tied his team in the stable, without unharnessings, and run down to a birchbark canoe in order to paddle to the steam and make arrangements for taking some produced to Wabigoon.
He never reached the steamer, nor was his his absence from home noticed, till Friday night, when the canoe was discovered, floating full of water on the edge of the bay.
Then it was recalled that cries had been heard on Tuesday night, just after dark, by people both on the Widgeon and on shore, but they were not at the time thought to come from anyone in distress in the water.
It is supposed that by some means the canoe was upset, and Mr Prewer being unable to swim, perished in the darkness.
On Saturday and Sunday, parties with drags searched for the boyd, and his brother, Rev. G.Prewer, of Chapleau, who had just been married a few days previously, was telegraphed for, and arrived her on Saturday night.
The efforts made to recover the body have, however, been so far unavailing.
Mr Prewer was a young man of sterling qualities who was deservedly held in very high esteem by all who knew him in this vicinity, and his sudden and tragic end has caused the deepest sorrow for his many friends.
Besides his brother, who was for many years missionary at Dinorwic, he leaves parents in England to mourn his loss.

Notes:

Bury Free Press 30 June 1894, p. 5:
The affairs of Mrs. Aston. - The day fixed for the first meeting of the creditors in the bankruptcy of Emily Aston, widow, 7, Meat Market, Bury St. Edmunds, was Friday, at the offices of the Official Receiver (Mr. F.Messent), Ipswich, but no creditors attended. The gross liabilities are 678 pounds 13 shillings and threepence, expected to rank 598 pounds, 13 shillings and threepence, and the deficiency 597 pounds 7 shillings and sevenpence, the assets consisting of good book debts, 5 shillings eightpence, and doubtful 2 pounds 5 shillings and 11pence, estimated worth 1 pound. The official receiver states that the debtor's husband died about two years ago, and the photographic business was then carried on for the benefit of the debtor by her son until his death last autumn. The debtor attributes her failure to the illness and death of her son, and also to losses incurred through sending out a traveller with drapery. Many of the creditors are professional money-lenders, with whom the debtor's transactions appear to have extended over a considerable period. Early last month one of the creditors execution, and to get the bailiff out of the house the bankrupt have a bill of sale over her stock-in-trade and furniture. If this document is valid she has so managed her affairs that one or two of her creditors have been paid in full, and the others can never receive anything. She has kept an account of her daily takings in the fancy business but no account with her creditors. On July 6th the public examination will take place at Bury.

The affairs of Mrs. Aston. - The gross liabilities were shown as 678 pounds 13 shillings and threepence, expected to rank 598 pounds, 13 shillings and threepence, and the deficiency 597 pounds 7 shillings and sevenpence, the assets consisting of good book debts, 5 shillings eightpence, and doubtful 2 pounds 5 shillings and 11pence, estimated worth 1 pound. The Official Receiver states that the debtor's husband carried on business as a photographer for many years, the debtor also keeping a small fancy shop. Her husband died about five years ago, and the photographic business was then carried on for the benefit of the debtor by her son until his death last autumn. The debtor attributes her failure to the illness and death of her son, and also to losses incurred through sending out a traveller with drapery. Many of the creditors are professional money-lenders, with whom the debtor's transactions appear to have extended over a considerable period. Early last month one of the creditors issues execution, and to get the bailiff out of the house the bankrupt gave a bill of sale over her stock-in-trade and furniture. If this document is valid she has so managed her affairs that one or two of her creditors have been paid in full, and the others can never receive anything. She has kept an account of her daily takings in the fancy business, but no account either of her expenditure or of her transactions with her creditors-Debtor now stated that when her son died in December, the photographic business was let. To carry on that business she had to spend a good deal of money. As to the deficiency of 600 pounds, she did not think she owed much at the beginning of 1893. Owing to financial embarrassment she had had transactions with advertising money lenders, and she had had to pay them at the rate of 30 pounds for 20 pounds. Executions had been put in, the first being in April. She had given a bill of sale to the Bedfordshire Loan Company because she was two instalments back with them and they had pressed for their money, and execution resulted. Before then she had been advised to file her petition. The first time she had she had recourse to money lenders was about a year and a half ago. She thought that at that time she could have paid her creditors in full. About last Christmas she knew that she could not pay them in that way, but thought she could be instalments.-It transpired that after the bill of sale creditors had been satisfied only 17 shillings was left for the benefit of the estate. -Mr. J.W.Greene appeared for the petitioning creditor.-The examination was closed.

There is a possibility that Emily had a base child herself. See the following entry.
Chevington OPR: No 262 20 Apr 1866 born 18 Feb 1866 Eliza dau of Emily Nunn of this parish.
I am yet to find any other record of this Eliza Nunn, so there is a possibility she died as an infant or was assumed into another family.
