r Biographies and Autobiographies of Heber Charles and Asineth Jarvis Cottam and Their Ancestors Cottam • Jarvis • Foster • Forsyth Compiled by Ellen Raye Cottam Brown Published December 2003 fc A F *s Tell Them Today If I possessed a castle grand And greatest riches in the land, I'd barter them most any minute For home with Dad and Mother in it. I'd come from any distant land, Once more to clasp my Father's hand, Or give a field of flowers away, For one white rose for Mother's Day. - Mabel Jarvis *£ 0 v fe FORWORD Every family has a story to tell, unique and distinct from all others, and the Cottam- Jarvis family is no exception. As each of our family lines came together to make up the Cottam-Jarvis family, we find a group of people who are carved from some of the best stock of several European countries, primarily England, Scotland and France. Lest the knowledge of who we are is lost, we submit this compilation of histories of our ancestors, written by various people who knew them and embellished with pictures that we hope will entice each descendant to read about and become acquainted with each of our ancestors, whether you are a Jarvis or a Cottam or both. To read about their lives, their hopes, their struggles, their attainments is to feel a love for them and a greater appreciation for the sacrifices they gave in order for us to have the blessings we enjoy today. May each of us live our lives to bring honor to our family and not stray from the teachings we have each received from our parents and from the examples for good set for us by our ancestors. A NOTE OF APPRECIATION Appreciation is expressed to all of those who have helped to bring this book into existence. To Iris who felt that we needed a hard copy of these histories and has supported this effort. To the several proof-readers who have helped eliminate errors including Iris, Merv and a friend of Naomi's. To Darle Fitzgerald for her generosity in getting pictures to us of numerous family members. To each of my family who have been more than willing to share the time necessary to get the text and pictures into the computer (Blair, Kelly, Russell, Sheldon and his daughter Amanda, Ryan, Patricia and Carmen). To Ryan, who has spent the summer running from house to house keeping our computers running so that this project could proceed (this summer seemed to have a jinx on it for our computers) and to Blair and Jocelyn who have overseen the final merging of text and pictures. Without the help of each of them, this book would never have happened.
