NOTES: Charles Jackson Donogh was born in Mount Forest Ontario June 9, 1880. Some confusion existed as he was registered under the name Robert Andrew even though he was always known as Charles Jackson, or "Charlie".

He married Eva Skinner on his birthday in 1910. Eva, daughter of John Skinner and Lucy Charlton, was born September 30, 1888 in Pilot Mound, Manitoba, and died January 07, 1979. Charlie and Eva farmed in the Huntington district of Manitoba until their retirement at which point they moved into the village of Griswold. Three children were born of this union: Henry, John Alexander, and Bertha Charlton. Henry died as an infant.

Eva's sister, Ethel Skinner, married Charlie's brother Milton.

Charlie contracted throat cancer in his retirement years and spent several years attending radiation therapy in Winnipeg. He died Jan. 15, 1960 and is buried in Griswold cemetery.
