    3. Hello Patricia, I was raised at Ashmont & have the book "An Era in Review". Following is the write-up. In about 1940, Howard Whitman and his wife Mona came to Ashmont from Radway, Alta & took over the agency for the Federal grain elevator. For a number of years they lived in the little housebehind Pearson's store. Howard had a great love for gardening, his speciality being flowers. He was also a great baseball fan. They would travel many miles to see a game.Another enjoyment was playing pool. Mona will always be remembered for her musical ability. She served as organist for the United Church for many many years. She led the choir, played for weddings and funeralsand oother special occasions. She was a very active meember in the United church.In the late 40's the Whitmans bought the house on the corner across from the Legion Hall. Mr. & Mrs. Learmonth lived next door. Mona & Howard were highly respected in the community. Moan passed away April 19, 1974 at the age of 83. Howard died in 1976 at age 81. Both are buried in Ashmont Cemetary. Hope this helps in your research.

I replied to your E-mail request but <"Joshua Cud"@ubsw.com>... was returned with the following message, "User unknown" Please send your correct address if you want more information. Martha In TRAILS WE BLAZED TOGETHER, (history of High Prairie, Alberta & surrounding areas), I found a story about; HENDRY, Robert Thompson (BRADWELL, Annie). It was compiled by Jean BITTLE, John HENDRY & Bernardine KRUEGER. What exactly is it that you would like to know - the story is fairly long? There is also a very long story on HENDRY, John (MARX, Elsie) which was submitted by Ellen SAVILL. Where are you E-mailing from?
