Donn Fowler: My great grandfather, Samuel FOWLER, was born at Goosehill, near Wakefield, Yorkshire. Samuel’s father, John FOWLER, was a successful “Contractor of Publick (sic) Works” in Yorkshire, UK and was invited in 1850 to come to Cobourg to the first ever non-colonial Province of Canada to complete the unfinished C&PR Railway across Rice Lake to Hiawatha First Nation in Otonabee Township to Peterborough. Jane (PRUDHAM) FOWLER managed their 400 acre dairy farm two miles east of Cobourg, until disaster struck the Family because of the FOWLER home mortgaging to financing the Millbrook Trunk line off the Port Hope (PHL&B) line to Peterborough, thanks to Mayor Cox’s Peterborough interest in the Grand Truck Railway’s Montreal to Toronto Line, and a possible trunk line off it at Belleville to Peterborough. Later Fowler’s O&QR charter had to be sold to the Canadian Pacific Railway. The family moved to Headingly Manitoba and died and are buried there.
