Charles Robert Chugg died  January 27th 1924 in the Weyburn Mental Hospital. There was  a TB annex at the hospital and quite possibly Charles died of TB. He had created his will and sold off most of his property at that time. He placed the assets into a trust for son William Edward Chugg and wife Catherine Julia Thomspon Chugg and wife Catherine Julia. He was declared mentally incompetent in November of 1923.  The will and estate was probated by the named executor: Ebenezer Rogers Chugg - Charlie's brother.  William Edward Chugg died of TB 4 years later in an Ottawa sanatorium in 1928 and left his inheritance to his sister Edith.  His head stone is in Beechwood Cemetery in Ottawa. Charles Robert Chugg is buried in the Mortlach cemetery. Thelma Hartman put together this part of the puzzle late  in the evening of Feb 2, 2014.  Note the signatures of both Charles and brother Ebenezer. Will made Oct. 1918.  Charles died in January of 1924. This inventory valuation does not include the value of land sold, but gives a general indication of the lifestyle of Charles and Julia and their family. Sale of land to J.D. Gardiner and Clement Tregear. Money put in trusts for Catherine Julia and for Eddie. Total assets at date of death $8524.46. Map of the section of land where Charles and family farmed ( arrow is in center of the land: Former farm of Charles Robert Chugg and then William Edward Chugg.  This land is in Mortlach just west of Moosejaw, just north and west of  Highway 735.

The two land parcels are located as NE quarter section section1 - township17 - range 2 -W3rd meridian   and SE section quarter section section 12- township 17 -range 2 -west 3rd Meridian.

Charles Robert Chugg and Catherine Julia Thompson   Chugg Family Generation 2 Canada    Back

Just below the number 10 and listed on the left hand side is the census registration for the family of Charles

Robert Chugg for the region of Moose Jaw Saskatchewan. The family members in descending order are:

Charles Robert Chugg

Catherine Julia  -wife

Gertrude - daughter

Isabella - daughter

Edith -daughter

Edward -son

I believe this is a census from 1920. It is listed as the Fifth Census of Canada.

See right hand column   - Location : Parkbeg, Saskatchewan  The Following also includes Catherine's niece and Catherine's care for the community prior to moving to MacLeod to live next to her sister (who was married to Philip Elisha Chugg) and brother Edward Thompson.

Black box or section east of it was the original land owned by Charles Robert Chugg.

This is on the Trans Canada Highway just west of Caron and Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan.

Charles Robert Chugg family continued... left hand column.

Death of Catherine and Charles son, Eddie, due to TB as described in paragraph three below.

Paragraph four, right hand column below indicates how Catherine Julia took care of neighbor men during the flu epidemic of 1918. Also Dr. Ellis is also mentioned. Was this the Ellis family that the Chugg family followed to MacLeod, Alberta?

According to the pages above: Dr. Ellis lived in Parkbeg for awhile. I wonder if this is the Dr. Ellis of Hull, Quebec that is mentioned in the Chugg Family History Book. Apparently the Chugg brothers followed him out to Alberta.

Catherine Julias parents gravestones back in the Gatineau region of Quebec. Charles came from Hull, Quebec.

Left hand column below: Charles Chugg living in Ottawa at 135 Norman Street, close to where his mother and brother were living on Pamilla. Another brother lived at 504 Maria Street. He is a mill hand here but is listed in other registries as a laborer. He is also listed as head of the household.  This is all prior to moving to Saskatchewan.  His brothers and mother(Cathrine Davis Chugg) moved to  Fort MacLeod, Alberta. His brother John Chugg stayed in Ottawa his entire life.

Florence Bailey was Florence Thompson and was a niece to Catherine Julia Thompson Chugg,  and Annie Thompson Chugg.  She was the daughter of Edward Thompson, the Chugg wives brother. Hi Michael A very kind lady from Fort Macleod had access to some photos from Union Cemetery and she offered to send the ones that were related to us. She has sent Catherine Julia Chugg, Edward Thompson (son of Edward Thompson, brother of Catherine and Ann Jane Thompson) and Florence Bailey (who was the daughter of Edward Thompson, brother of Catherine and Ann Jane). When she has time she will look for others that she may have. Sincerely Thelma Hartman  (She is Thelma Chugg's granddaughter and is the same Chugg generation as the host of this wiki. Thelma is responsible for most of the registry scans in this wiki.) We both descend from Philip Elisha Chugg of MacLeod, Alberta.)
