If you are in the Englehart area, the Musum there has some material pertaining to the great fire. There is also a book that was put together on the fire located in Charlton just outside of Englehart. I believe the book is located in the town hall there. You may find the names your looking for in that book too.

Ruby Stevenson was my Grade 5 teacher in 1950. She was either divorced or a widow at the time and had one daughter Judy. If Ruby was a twin, the twin must have died by 1911 as there is only Ruby in the Creighton family in the 1911 census.

Mr. Ufland/Upland is not in the book. However I did get a reference to his death and his obituary on the Paper of Record.
Miss Leone Ufland of Detroit, who came to attend the funeral of her father, David Ufland, left Tuesday for home.

DAVID UFLAND
A resident of Elk Lake since 1908, David Ufland passed away at his home on Friday. He was born at Meaford, December 19, 1860. He had been in ill health for some time.
