     Ernest Irwin McMaster was born on 12 November 1892 at Brighton Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario; Date 1892 per Memorial. Date 1893 & location Ont. per 1921 Census. Date Nov 12 1892 & location Ont. rural per 1901 Census.1,3,5 He appeared on the census of April 1901 at Brighton Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario; Age 8 at 1901 Census: see Elijah McMasters.1 He lived circa 1907 at Swift Current, Saskatchewan; "About 1907 Ernest went west to North Dakota to work for his uncle Wallace in North Dakota. Soon after, his father; brother, sister and families followed. Perhaps the United Empire Loyalist’s memories were too strong for Elijah and he migrated across country to end
up at Waldeck, Saskatchewan. Ernest was too young to take up a homestead so became a cowboy, working for a large corporation known as the Matador Ranch about 50 miles north of Swift Current, Saskatchewan." from page 3 & 4 of "History of Hops and Barley Boom 1860-1890", compiled by Basil McMaster for the 3rd Annual Brighton History Festival, August 2001, copy borrowed from Brighton Public Library, Nov 21 2020.6 He lived in 1913 at Saskatchewan; "Dad took up a homestead when he reached 21 and became a wheat farmer. Several families from the Smithfield area later took up land in the Waldeck area. The drought began about 1920 and most families returned, including Elijah, in spring of 1921. He died from a heatstroke on July 4. 1921, having shovelled coal all day in Trenton in a temperature of 104° in the shade, at age 65 years." from page 4 of "History of Hops and Barley Boom 1860-1890", compiled by Basil McMaster for the 3rd Annual Brighton History Festival, August 2001, copy borrowed from Brighton Public Library, Nov 21 2020.6 He married Estella Evelyn "Stella" Newell circa 1914; per 1916 Census.7 Ernest Irwin McMaster appeared on the census of 1916 at Twp 16 Rge 11 W3, Swift Current Dist., Saskatchewan; Age 23 at 1916 Census: see Elijah McMasters (father.)7 He appeared on the census of 1921 at Sec 20 Twp 16 Rg 11 M 3, Swift Current, Saskatchewan; Age 28 at 1921 Census: McMaster, Ernest, 28, b.

Ont., son (1921 Census: Switft Current, Saskatchewan, Section 20, Township 16, Range 11, Meridian 3 - ancestry.com.)5 He lived in 1922 at Trenton, Hastings Co., Ontario; "Ernest seeded the wheat fields in the spring of 1922 three times, and there was not a kernel of harvest. In December 1922 Ernest with a family of five arrived in Trenton with some Jersey cattle and the western bronco called Dan Patch after the famous standard bred of the same name. I think Ernest could have witnessed a race about 1900 when Dan Patch raced on the track in King Edward Park. This bronco was the colt of a pinto mare that Ernest had captured from the Matador Ranch about 1917, my birth date. This bronco became well known in Brighton until his demise in the early forties. The Matador Ranch ceased in the summer of 1922 and Ernest was called back by Legs Laird to the last great cattle drive of the era to take the herd to a ranch in Montana. The saddle of this story is now in the Harness Shop at Proctor Museum." from page 4 & 5 of "History of Hops and Barley Boom 1860-1890", compiled by Basil McMaster for the 3rd Annual Brighton History Festival, August 2001, copy borrowed from Brighton Public Library, Nov 21 2020.6 He "During Jan. 1923 Ernest helped put up ice for the McGill Co. of Trenton which was big business at that time, soon to cease when electric refrigerators became available. At the end of the ice harvest the next job was at the Wm. Fraser Cooperage Mill. A day’s work was to take a team and sleigh from Trenton to Colborne and get a load of elm logs. These logs were in 12’, 14' and 16' lengths and used to make apple barrel staves. On one return trip and crossing the Trent River, team, logs and driver ended up in a space where the ice was thin, from the ice harvest. Ernest single-handedly rescued the horses and spent the night in the Blacksmith Shop keeping the animals from getting chilled. He later ended up owning this team as they were known as outlaws, having being abused by former teamsters, and Ernest was the only person able to handle them." from page 5 of "History of Hops and Barley Boom 1860-1890", compiled by Basil McMaster for the 3rd Annual Brighton History Festival, August 2001, copy borrowed from Brighton Public Library, Nov 21 2020. in 1923 at Trenton, Hastings Co., Ontario.6 He lived in 1924 at Brighton Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario; "Ernest went west to the harvest the fall of 1923, and returned to the Cooperage Mill for the winter of 1923 and came to the Snelgrove farm east of Brighton at the corner of Boes Road and Highway 2. It was impossible to make a living for a family of five on this gravel hill and swamp, so the winter of 1924-1925 Ernest would get up in the middle of the night, go to the neighbour’s barn and take care of the Jersey cattle. The reason for the neighbour barn of Ernie Potts was that the hobos had burned the Snelgrove Barn in July 1924. (There were lots of hobos that summer.) He would saddle the bronco and ride to Trenton to report for duty by seven, work a ten hour day. for a dollar in wages, and return to do chores again." from page 5 of "History of Hops and Barley Boom 1860-1890", compiled by Basil McMaster for the 3rd Annual Brighton History Festival, August 2001, copy borrowed from Brighton Public Library, Nov 21 2020.6 He "The spring of 1925 Ernest contracted to merge his herd of Jersey cattle with the Holsteins of the Peister family on Scriver Road, to provide milk for the dairies of Toronto. This meant getting the 8 gallon cans at the Smithfield Station for pick up by the milk train at 7 am. This arrangement lasted only one year. The next stop was on the west half of lot 7 Con. 1 west of Brighton just beyond Huff road. This lasted 3 seasons. This is also poor land and the fall of 1928 Ernest again went west for the harvest and returned in November for an auction sale and to start a new career as a truck driver for a.company known as the Red Star Line." from page 5 & 6 of "History of Hops and Barley Boom 1860-1890", compiled by Basil McMaster for the 3rd Annual Brighton History Festival, August 2001, copy borrowed from Brighton Public Library, Nov 21 2020. in 1925 at Brighton Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario.6 He "The highway had been paved in 1926. The first trucks were relics of World War I with solid rubber tires. So again Ernest was a pioneer. He drove transport until June 9, 1937 when he was killed in an accident near Napanee. Ernest raised nine children and could boast he never took a cent in welfare." from page 6 of "History of Hops and Barley Boom 1860-1890", compiled by Basil McMaster for the 3rd Annual Brighton History Festival, August 2001, copy borrowed from Brighton Public Library, Nov 21 2020. in 1926 at Brighton Twp., Northumberland Co., Ontario.6 He died on 10 June 1937 at Richmond Twp., Lennox & Addington Co., Ontario, at age 44; Death Reg'n.#022794: Name: Ernest McMasters; Date: Jun 10 1937; Age: 43; Born: Ont; Place of Death: Richmond Twp., Lennox & Addington Co; Res.: Brighton; Status: married; Occ.: Transport Driver; Wife: Stella McMasters; Parents: Elijah McMasters & Margaret Doonan, b.
