Biography

from http://archives.gnb.ca/Search/VISSE/141A2_2.aspx?culture=en-CA&guid=8D53640F-5E6A-49BE-AB6E-F08176B13B88

"Provincial Archives of New Brunswick Vital Statistics from Government Records Index to County Birth Registers Name COLWELL, ALBERT B. Sex M Date 1893-09-01 Place JEMSEG County QUEENS Father COLWELL, JAMES Mother CURRIE, MAGGIE I. Code 4-1-9-313 Microfilm F14884"

On this document, it states that his father is a Capt. (The presumption here would be that the father "Capt. Jas. Colwell" would have been the captain of a boat, not captain in the military. This was very often the case in that location at that time. This is confirmed by the next column, where he lists his occupation as "sailor".)

Albert was born in 1893. He passed away in 1938. Burial in Jemseg Community Cemetery.
