GRANTDavid F    1898 – 1969

Dave Grant owned the property next to ours on the east side and I  probably met him and his wife a time or two.  A son inherited the farm, and they had a bus business for awhile. A second house was built across the laneway from the main building.  Today the original house is falling down. The Deer River ran close to the buildings, and pasture land to the north is all now trees.

Apparently David F Grant was a soldier in both World War I and World War II.

GUNTER, Charles `Howard`, Born Jan 14, 1910 in Coe Hill, Wollaston Twp, Hastings County, Ontario, Died  Feb 14, 1997.

His wife Hazel nee Sobey. March 26, 1916 – April 17, 2005. Two children: Heather & Allyn.

Howard did  many things over the years, and  developed the local telephone service.  I remember our party line was 3 long rings. People on the same phone line might pick up their phone when they heard a call and listen into the conversation to learn the latest news. Howard also ran movies weekly at the Town Hall when I was a child and I often begged Mom for the 25 cents entrance fee. It was our only entertainment. He also showed educational films when visiting schools. He went fishing,  and enjoyed snowmobiling in winter. I would occasionally see him inside the Post Office, as he delivered rural mail. He also developed an insurance business with his wife. The family lived in a house in the centre of the village, just below the hill from the Gospel Church. Hazel would collect funds to buy a community wreath and a card for someone who had just died. I remember stopping at the house a number of times to add funds to our account. She would make out a card with people’ names on it, and arrange to have a wreath purchased. Thank you.

Their  daughter, Heather Campbell has written several books about her memories of Coe Hill and area, and has written a humorous collection of experiences in a weekly column in several newspapers.

Howard’s siblings included: Mary (Neil Whitmore), Roscoe (Doris Fisher) and Marjorie (Hubert King).

Howard and Hazel are buried in  St Andrew’s United Cemetery, Coe Hill, Ontario

Howard was the son of Henry Gunter (Hank) and Cora Wilson. Henry was one of seven children of William Henry Gunter & Clara Ingram.

On his mother’s side: The Empeys left New York and settled in Eldorado. Ivan’s great-great-grandfather received 200 acres of good farmland on the ridge that runs through the rocky hills north of Madoc. Ivan’s grandfather was John Empey, whose daughter, Laura, became a school teacher.  She took a job in the village of Coe Hill. where she met Richard Gunter. They were married in 1919.
