One last one on the Rawlings clan: RAWLINGS, John Nixon, b. 6 May 188, St. John, NB, Canada I've listed the information I have on him below and I'd love ot add to it if possible, but what I really am looking for is information on a South African/Boer War memorial statue located in St. John, NB, Canada. I have a postcard of the statue. A family story says that John Nixon posed for this statue. Does anyone know who the sculptor of the statue was or where records pertaining to it might be located? I'm also interested in any railroad records. Anyway, here's additional info on John Nixon Rawlings: Two tours in British military - 3rd Regiment Canadian Artillery, 1899-1900 - 2nd Mounted Rifles, 1901-1903 Worked as locomotive fireman for Intercolonial Railway in 1903.
