Allan John Langstaff lived between 1888 and 1891, at Ottawa City Directory, , Carleton, ; Working as a blacksmith for W. Ahearn.
The house was on the north side of the street between Cumberland and what was then King St. which I assume is now King Edward.
William Torrance and family was living with them as well.

They left for Kenora after 1891.
The Canadian Atlantic Railway completed its line to the Chaudiere in late1888 and a ticket office on Bridge Street (later Booth Street) was built at that time. The Ottawa Evening Journal talking about the Chaudiere Extension plans on 3 October 1887 said:
The station house, which will be the termination of the extension, will be constructed on the property now occupied by T. Ahearn's blacksmith shop. From this point, branch lines will be constructed into all the lumber yards, thus enabling the lumber men to load their cars with lumber right in their yards. It is also the intention of the company to do away with the small passenger station on Broad street, and use the new station house on Bridge street as a central passenger and freight depot for the Chaudiere and Hull.²

Gertie: 12 August 1897 and I had 13 August 1897.

The family that year moved to Beaver Mills (Rainy River) (As told by Ruth Boissoneault in letter July 98), probably after the birth of Jack.

Allan John Langstaff 7 July 1960
Evening with Jim Crackel brings out interesting facts on local History.

The presentation was in connection with the dedication of a set of Encyclopedia Britannica to the High School in the name of Mr. J. A Crackel, one of Rainy River’s oldest established citizens. Encyclopedia Britannica of Canada Ltd. donated the books. What was supposed to be an interview of Mr. Crackel’s life in rainy River turned out to be an interesting chapter in the town’s own history. It is printed here for the enjoyment of those unable to attend the Awards night
                         .

“On behalf of the students I wish to thank the Encyclopedia Britannica for their gift and add our thanks to Mr. J. A. Crackel for his many years of community activities.

Mr. Crackel was born in Shallow Lake and lived in Fort Frances before coming here by river boat in 1900 with his father to help build the C.N.R. bridge. Since then Mr. Crackel has kept in close contact with the affairs of the town and is well acquainted with its history. In interviewing Mr. Crackel, I realised how little the students and even some of the adults knew about the early days in rainy River.

Beaver Mills a, as the town was then called, was located near the present Customs offices at the bridge. This was the scene of the Hughes and Long Sawmill from Bemidji, brought overland from the Rapid River in 1896. This was later sold to the Cameron family of Kenora and became known as the Rat Portage Lumber Co. In 1903 the rainy River Lumber Co. Was managed by George Parker and J.A. Matieu and employed about 200 men and produced approximately 300,000 board feet of lumber a day. In 1903, Mr. Crackel and gene Karaim worked together at the sorting table. Other employees were Albert Bourgeois and George Gruchy, who was on the receiving end of the gang saw.

In the early stages of Rainy River’s development there were a number of hotels: Lynches, the Commercial Hotel (recognized only as the mad house), Connors Hotel, the King Edward (located north of Atkins lumber yard), and Harry Green’s Hotel (at the site of the present Legion building). Because of the increase in population during the summer months, these hotels were full, as well many private homes became boarding houses for the workers. During the winter it was almost a ghost town. At its peak, the population of Rainy River reached approximately 2800-3,000 people.

In Pinewood in 1898 there was an uprising of the Indians from Brule Island on Lake of the Woods. It was considered so serious that American troops were brought up from Duluth to quell the disturbance.

The homes at this time were houses built for the mill employees, almost entirely of wood. Meyer’s home, originally the Northern navigation Office, is one of the oldest houses in town, built with 8" drop siding instead of 6". Due to creosote and faulty stoves at least ten fires were common each season.

The first school was a log building built on the site of the present day Power Plant. It was not until 1905 that Alexander School was built and named for Queen Alexander the wife of Edward VII. The first teacher was Miss Hay from Lyons Head, Ont., who stayed with the Crackel family. She was followed by a red head ed Miss. Bell who married the son of the local postmaster. Still later came Mr. Gormanely. Mr. Crackel remembers one of his teachers , an elderly lady of 50, who burnt to death during a fire.

The Catholic Church was the first built in Rainy River on the river bank approximately opposite Martin’s (GUS) lumber yard. Its first priest was ST. Amant, who died only recently in St. Boniface at the age of 86 years. It was he who brought the French settlers from Quebec to populate Pinewood.

In 1896 Rev. Johnson founded the Anglican Sioux Mission between Barwick and Stratton. In 1903 the Methodist church was built, and is now used as the Rebekah Hall. The Presbyterian Church was built in 1905 at the site of the present United Church.

The first cemetery was located on the Baudette side of the river opposite the catholic Church. In 1904 land was bough for a cemetery here. This was considered a bad investment because it was too large. The town was expected to expand in that direction and no one wanted it in the centre of the town. Beside Rainy River was a healthy part of the country. The cemetery lay unused for six months. It was rumoured that the town council killed a stranger with an axe one night, to become its first occupant. It has been used regularly every since.

In 1902 the Rainy River Lumber Co. built a General Store were Percy Parker now lives (1st Street) and in 1904 the Robert Block was built containing a jewellery store, a bank, a dance hall, and Masonic Chambers. In 1905 McQuarrie and Grimshaw moved their store from the river bank to main street (This in now the liquor store (corner of 4th and ? Ave.)). In the same year the Binder Block was built on the opposite corner, then called the Busy Corner. In 1906, Calvert bought out the other drug store and began taking Doctors out on the lake in a sailboat (containing an emergency one cylinder gasoline engine). The town Hall was built in 1909. The first theatre was The Empire, run by the Blackmore Bros. Built in 1909 near the Legion it showed silent movies. Mr. Crackel recalls the first talking picture in 1915 that used record for the sound.

Other entertainment was Indian pow-wows, on the river bank, and medicine shows with from 500 to 600 people attending.

Rainy River progress steadily acquiring sidewalks, water works and a telephone exchange. Mr. Crackel mentioned that his brother Frank was one of the telephone operators at one time.

Rainy River was not without it’s share of crime. In 1940 three men held up the Bank of Nova Scotia and stole $10,000., which was never recovered although one of the posse was shot in the leg during the chase. The first jail was built where Frank’s tailour Shop ow stands (corner 5th street and ? Ave.). It was built of 2x6's laid flat , and boulders beneath the floor discouraged escape. The boulders are now at the ferry landing to prevent erosion.

In 1905, Mr. Crackel’s father worked as a car inspector and road repairman for the C.N.R. and Mr. Crackel himself was the “callboy” (used to notify running crew when to report for work)at the station. At this time there were 30-35 crews going west. H.G. Gorman was the first roundhouse foreman. There were 50 men employed in both the roundhouse and the rip tracks. Since then diesels have cut down the traffic from car cars per train to about 167.

Friday, Oct. 7th 1910 it hadn’t rained for weeks and a bush fire occurred. This quickly spread and burnt out the R.R. lumber Co., the saw mill and the entire area, going all the way to Rouseau, Minnesota. It is reported that 34 were buried in one grave. This perhaps marked the first decline of the town. The second was the closing of the C.N.R shops(early 1960's).

Rainy River has enjoyed many sports. The present curling rink is the fourth, the first being built in 1904 in the fair grounds. It was burnt and replaced by one near the creamery followed by a third built beside the Alexander School (this is the only one I remember).

Rainy River has also had a baseball team, and a lacrosse league. In 1913 there was an active football team made up of mainly Scotsmen wearing uniforms identical to the ones worn by the Sing-Sing prison team.

During the first World War, Mr. Crackel was a sapper with the Canadian Engineers. He also cooked for 2000 men and claims never to have lost a man.

The Depression had a great effect upon Rainy River. It was caused by the 25 Nov. 1929 crash of the New York stocks. But the real responsibility was placed on a local citizen who painted his own house instead of hiring a painter.

Work was scarce and wages were low. Tamarack wood was selling for $2.25 a cord (128 ft³), butter and tea were 40¢ per pound, and sugar was 22 pounds for 1$. Beef sold for 6¢ a pound and pork between 8 and 10¢ per pound. Dan Ewald (local dairyman) was selling milk for 20 quarts per 1$. In the summer kids went barefoot by necessity. Students bought their own books, a slate, reader and perhaps twp pencils per year.

Mr. Crackel remarks that, “These were not the good old days. The good old days are now.” in 1905, at town history, , Rainy River District, .⁶
Allan John Langstaff died on 30 September 1931, at Rainy River, Ontario..
Allan John Langstaff was described as a tall thin man with a handlebar moustache, via Lorraine. He always called Lorraine "Bridget".

Lorraine was in town and saw him drop dead in front of Dr. McBain's office (the funeral home in the years 1960-1997) from across the street. She ran to where the hospital is to tell Aunt Ruth. He seems to have lost his breath and was pretty purple, probable his heart. At that same time Ruth Boiseneault saya that she was there and she helped him to the Calvert Dry Goods Store and had him wait on the steps (between the dry goods and the pharmacy) to catch his breath. He was not that bad since he was able to wave to Albert accross the strret before continuing on. He was apparently heading for Ruth's home. But he assured her that all was well and he continued, but died of the heart attack on the way.

As told by Ruth Boissoneault in letter July 98. There was five brothers and one sister. One brother was Shanly and the sister was Gerturde. The family I am tracing had 9 children, one a Shanley and one Allen of the correct age, and some of the rest could have died. The girls are not listed however as Gertrude.

Gertrude married a Warren, and had a son supposedly called Langstaff Warren and a daughter Ruth Warren. This is from Aunt Ruth Moon who knew them when they lived in Belleville, Ont.

Apparently there was a Langstaff reunion in Kemptville not too long ago. Langstaff's have had a store there some time ago. (Ruth Langstaff (Boissoneault).

Ruth also states that John Allen was a bit of a dandy with fancy bowties and bowler hats.

According to Ruth Boiseneault, the family home of Allen John was a reasonably big house with a nice piano (Albert loved to play this) and that all this was lost in the big fire of 1910. After that the family home was more of a small shack in the area between Sixth street and th bridge as I knew it as a kid (E. Jack). They never did seem to recover from the fire. The new residence can be seen a bit in the pictures that I have of Gramma (Mary) taken at this time.

Ruth also states that John built a boat and named it after Gertie (the Gertie L). Her family had a picture of it but it was lost to water damage. I now have found a copy of the photo.

     
Albert James Langstaff Moved to Emmett, Idaho (1917, year Ruth was one year old) for a short time, but moved back to Rainy River to be close to his mother. His eldest daughter (Ruth) told me this in a letter in July of 98. It was very hard to return to a not so good home and the difficulty of finding a new job. At the time he was involved with the lumber industry.

Apparently lived in Emmett, Idaho. Also spent time in Boise Idaho with appendistis.

Albert died on Monday Mar 26, two days after his birthday (Sat. Mar. 24, 1892) at 1 pm. Ruth and Reggie had both just arrived from Winnipeg.

There seems to be a dispute over Alberts birth date, I had 1892, but Ruth says 1891, I looked at the photo I have of his tombstone, and it says 1891. The inscription also gives Florences birth year as 1892. This dispute goes on as I found his birth certificate and it lists his birth as 14 Sep. 1888. This is the date I will use, The certificate states:
Albert James Langstaff born 14 Sep. 1888 to parents John Langstaff and Mary Johnston;
registered by Rev. W. J. Crothers on 20 June 1890. (Why the long wait? was Allen John a bit thick?) The 1891 census supports the 1888 birth day.
Albert James Langstaff was born on 14 September 1888, at, Carleton, . He was the son of Allan John Langstaff and Mary Anne Johnston.

Mary Lorraine Langstaff was born on 14 September 1923, at Rainy River, Ont.. She was the daughter of Jack Langstaff and Kathern Lucile "Flinn" Flynn.
Mary Lorraine Langstaff Lorraine attended Normal School in North Bay, Ont. I think this was about 1947 as I remember her coming home when I (Jack) was sick with the measles or the chicken pox (I was in bed in the dark).

Ruth Boiseneault tells of Lorraines tom-boyish nature. Her mother (Catherine) apparently tried to dress her in dresses, but Lorraine was much more at home playing ball with the boys. One time she became angry over some ball gam wand she threw the bat at Ken and hit hime on the nose. Ruth still thinks this is why Ken has the pug nose. I (E. Jack) think the pug nose came from the car accident Ken was in, but I have never had the nerve to ask him about it.

Patrick Gerald Langstaff Pat did not do well in school. After he failed grade 9 the first time Father arranged for him to work on an EXTRA GANG (CNR types laying track, very hard work). I guess the foreman knew Dad and he really worked Pat hard. He came back brown as a berry and all muscle, even the brain I guess as he went back to school and failed worst the second time around. That was when he started with the CNR as a firemen.

Luck was with Pat in his job however. When the CNR decided to drop the firemen from the trains they cut off all who did not have 5 years seniority. By chance Pat had about one month over the five years. A real break.

Pat too had a mind of his own. When it came time to buy his first car Dad did not want him to buy an expensive big car but that did not stop Pat from buying a big Crysler New Yorker. Dad was not too happy.

The 1901 census (T-6468, page 6, line 18) has Jacob living with his Mother, Martha J. (age 55, born 1826) and his siblings:
1) Robert, born May 8, 1871, age 30, and was listed as head of the household;
2) Margaret, born Sep. 9, 1879, age 21.

They were all born in Ontario and were supposed Methodists. He was a farmer workin on his own. Their farm was Conc. 8, lot 10 of Euphrasia Twp., Grey Co. They had 100 acres of land with two houses. The brother Thomas was still on the the same lot and conc. It would seem they were living in a wood house with only 2 rooms.


Jacob's first wife Letisha died of a stroke while attending the wedding reception of R.J. and Stella Dunn. While driving into town to the Dunn's home, Letisha complained to Clifford who was driving and Jacob that she was feeling very hot. A short time later at the reception, she just passed out and people did not realise at first that she had died.

She had previously been operated on for something to do with her eye. When Ed, Fran's father had his cataracts operated on he was not allowed to do anything physical for almost a year. Maybe Letisha's early death had something to do with the eye operation.

It was while Letisha was in the hospital that Jacob met Martha Woodford, whom he would marry after Letisha's death.

Fran's mother Muriel thought that she was nine when Letisha died. The dates I have substantiate this fact.[Langstaff Jul 26 01.FTW]

Margaret Jane Hemphill died on 4 January 1933.

     Robert Warling was Fact 3; died at 80 years old, found dead in bed.
Robert Warling According to a Frank Warling (1956-1970) the Warlings originally spelt Worling moved from Ayreshire Scotland or Worlington, England to Ireland sometime after the time of Cromwell. This would be in the mid 1600's, after the English civil war.

According to Peter Worling of Edinburough Robert was born in 1818, this would make him 52 in 1870 and that would agree with the 1871 census if his birthday was after the date of the census.

Arrived in Canada probably in the year 1840, from Ebenezer, County Tyrone, Ireland. He came with his two brothers, George and Frank.

Robert and George settled in Nobleton, Ontario and Frank settled in New York, USA.

The 1851 census for York Co., King Twp. part 3, page 216, line 13 shows the family. They were living in a log house and the name was miss-spelled as Werling. See below for ages of children from this census. This must have been just before they moved to Vaneleur.

After moving to Vandeleur, Robert used his house for the Methodist services. A minister came from the south once a month.

The 1861 census (Roll # C-1026, page 22, line 48) gives very different dates for many of the families births. It says they lived in a 1 story log house in district #2 of Artemesia Twp., Grey county. John had not yet married and was living at home.

Roll # C-9952, Grey County, 036 G1 35 59 Artemisia Township.
The 1871 census states that there was a Robert Warling and family as follows:
Robert, age 52, farmer, born in Ireland; age 43 in 1861 census; 1851 has age 30;
Sarah, age 53, born inIreland; age 40 in 1861 census; 1851 has age 30;
Eliza, Elizabeth, age 17 in 1861 census; 1851 has age 9; born 1841-44
John, age 16 in 1861 census; 1851 has age 8; born 1842-46
Annie, age 14 in 1861 census; 1851 has age 5; born 1847-47
Robert, age 12 in 1861 census; 1851 has age 4. born 1848-49
George, age 19, born in Ontario; age 10 in 1861 census; 1851 has age 1; born 1851-51
Sarah, age 17, born in Ontario; age 7 in 1861 census; born 1854-54
James, age 14, born in Ontario; age 5 in 1861 census; born 1856-57
Samuel, age 11, born in Ontario; age 2 in 1861 census; born 1859-60


The older children from the 1861 census were obviously not living at home for the 1871 census.
During the last year the census states they accomplished the following:

The religion listed was Weslian Episcopalian, not Methodist as was stated by Frank Warling.

Many of the results of Frank Warling's work were changed to aggree with the work of Blanche Walker. Deaths and marriages and births from Blanche came from the family bible which she copied on Feb. 3, 1954. She did not tell me who has the bible now.

CANADIAN WORLINGS. There are two groups. The first are descended from Henry's sons John Worling a master plumber in Aberdeen and his brother James. The second from the Worling families in Tyrone, Ireland. Robert Worling, born in Ebenezer, Tyrone, Ireland in1817, with his wife Sarah Allen born 1820 and his brother George emigrated to Canada in 1841 and settled in Vandeleur, Ontario. They now spell their name WARLING. There are also members of the family born in IRELAND recorded in Scotland and England in the 1851 and 1881 census.

GLASGOW WORLINGS. There were a number of families in Glasgow around 1800. One of the earliest records are of Arthur Worling a tanner, and Caldwell Worling a weaver born around 1796 in Tyrone, Ireland and his wife Sarah Edgar born 1795 also in Tyrone. They moved to Scotland around the end of the 18th. or early nineteenth century. Caldwell's daughter Agnes Worling born in Tybo, Tyrone married Arthur's son, her cousin, also called Arthur a tanner, in 1846.The descendents of this family are in Edinburgh today. One Irish family changed their name to WORLIN and they emigrated to Paisley mid 18th. century where there descendants are today and there may be a link..

AUSTRALIAN WORLINGS. Descended from a family recorded in England from the 17th. century. John Worling born in Cambridgeshire in 1832 emigrated to the gold fields in Australia and all the present members of the Australian and New Zealand branch are his descendents. Also descendants of Ann Bruce (my g. g. grandmother) who married Charles Ruther and then James Dyker

Henry WORLING was born about 1819 in Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland. His father was John Worling a cotton weaver. There are no Worlings in Scotland before 1790 but we have traced families born in Tyrone at Sion Mills, and they have been traced to Glasgow and Canada. I assume John came from Tyrone and would dearly love to make the connection. Henry worked as a comb maker in Liverpool, West Derby ( a Liverpool district ) and Sheffield, England, before settling in Aberdeen, Scotland. He died in 1897.


Spinning Wheel List for Donagheady, COUNTY of TYRONE
A List of Persons to whom Premiums for Sowing Flax-Seed in the Year 1796 have been adjudged by the Trustees of the Linen Manufacture.
Pursuant to the scheme offered by them for encouraging the Growth of Flax throughout the Kingdom, viz "To the Person who should sow between the 10th Day of March and the 1st day of June 1796, with a sufficient Quantity of good sound Flax-Seed, any quantity of Land, well prepared and fit for the purpose, not less than 1 acre- 4 spinning Wheels, 3 Roods 3 Ditto,- 2 Roods 2 Ditto,- 1 Rood 1 Ditto.

Every Person preferring Reels may have two of them in lieu of a Spinning Wheel.

The scheme of Premiums offered by the Board for the year 1796, has had so extensive an Effect, that it will require 37,135 Wheels to discharge the One Rood claimants, and not less than 88,719 Wheels, together with 227 Looms, to discharge the whole, which necessarily produces much delay in delivering.

As the highest Price is paid for the Wheels, in order to have them of the best Fabric, of Seasoned Timber, and of Full Size; no claimant is to receive any Wheel deficient in any respect: They all to be stamped with the Board Seal before delivery and with the Maker's name.
