Erratum

A publisher friend once told us that there is no book written that doesn’t have some mistakes. Despite our best efforts to the contrary, Rothesay, New Brunswick The First 150 Years follows that pattern. We sincerely apologize and offer the following corrections:

Pg 49, line six –Nesbitt should be spelled Nisbet.

Pg 110, photo caption should read “ Ingleton grandparents, Elsie Jean and Phillip, with grandchildren”, not Elmer Puddington

Pg 115, line 18 – William McNichol would have been retired by then.

Pg. 183, line five -Ann King served on council from 1983 to 1995 and was deputy mayor for all of those years.

Pg. 184, lower picture. “Helen Watters” is incorrect. The nursemaid is Janet Culverwell (Colpitts).

Pg 124, line seven – The girl was born in 1911 and died in 1920 so she was nine and not 14 when she died.

Pg 127 second photo: The girl in the front is Mae Tapley. The girl in the rear is Hazel McCready Clarke, owner of both horses.

Pg 129, line 13 – Mahoney should be spelled Mahony.

Pg 200, line eight,12, 13, 15, and 16 – Burt should be spelled Bert, as in Herbert.

Pg 202, line 10 – Fitzgerald rented, not bought store.

Pg 247, line 15 – It should say “It wasn’t until the 1930s…” as A.T. Patstone, vice-principal, drove the first school bus for students from Quispamsis and Fairvale. In the 1930s, Renforth and East Riverside children were transported on the regular Saint John bus.

Pg 278, the photo identified as Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Fairvale is actually St. Luke’s Anglican Church, Gondola Point, Quispamsis.
