Surnames: Creamer McIsaac
I found my great grandfather's grave stone in Fairview Cemetery, his name was Gilbert Creamer.His wife Jane (Jennie) and children Alice & Fred are burried there too. There is another relative Etta (Creamer) McIsaac & her husband (either James or Frank) burried there at a gravestone marked for the "Bell" family. I am interested in finding out more about Gilbert's parents, Patrick Creamer & Margaret (McGowan) Creamer, if you can help. Thanks.

On Gilbert Creamer's death registration his father is given as Abraham and mother as Margaret Gowan, both b Ontario. Informant was wife Jane Creamer of Action.

From the 1901 census Gilbert's birth is given as 25 May 1859 so I believe that the below information is your Gilbert plus some census information re his parents.

Wesleyan Methodist Baptism Site
Gilbert Cramer, b 25 May 1859 at Highland, bapt 31 Jan 1862 at Kingston. Parents Abraham & Margaret.
Charlotte Cramer, b 21 Nov 1861, bap 31 Jan 1862 at Kingston. Parents Abraham & Margaret.
Those are the only baptisms with Abraham and Margaret as parents. No Patrick and Margaret.

1851 census Kingston Frontenac County
CREMER
Abram, 17, born Canada West, yeoman
He is with John Gates family.

1861 census Kingston Twsp, Frontenac County
CREAMER
Abraham, born Upper Canada,26, farmer, Wesleyan Methodist
Margaret, 19, UC
Joseph, 3, UC
Gilbert, 2, UC
Beside them are
CREAMER
George, 24, farmer, UC
Maryann, 25, UC
Albert, 3, UC
George, 1, UC

On Joseph's [1861 census] marriage and death regos his parents are Abraham and Margaret McGown.

Don't see them on 1871 census but here is a Gilbert on 1881 in Emily, Victoria South.
Gilbert Creamer, 20, labourer for Robert McQuade.

1881 census Port Hope Durham
CREMER
Abraham, 42, b Ont, German, carpenter
Mary, 38, Ont, Scotch
Edwin, 14, Ont
George, 12,
Rachael, 10
Julie Ann, 8
Minnie,6
William, 2

On Rachel's marriage rego parents are Abraham and Mary Ann.
She is also on WM Baptism site with parents Abraham and Mary Ann.

1891 census they are still in Port Hope.

Abraham died 15 Aug 1900 at Port Hope. He fell off a roof and fracturered his skull and lived for nine hours.

On Gilbert's marriage registration, father is given as Patrick Creamer, mother Margaret McGowan. He was married Emily Tsp Victoria County to Jane Morganson 15 Nov 1882.
The McQuades were witnesses -he was with them on 1881 census.

Did Margaret McGowan die and Abraham/Patrick remarry?
Mary Ann Gordon Cramer died Port Hope 29 Jan 1916. Widow.
