Vital Statistics, Vol 2, St. John's Marriages 1892-1893

Notes
General:
03/02/01

According to McAlpine's 1898 Directory, "Clara Isabella McCoubre" was living as a widow (husband's initials R.A.) at 49 Victoria Street in St. John's. She was no longer listed there in 1904. In Lovell's 1871 Directory. R.A. McCoubrey was listed as a printer of the Times along with it appears his brother J.W. and his father, the publisher, editor and proprietor, John Williams McCoubrey. Hutchinson's 1864 Directory gives the names and it is Richard A. McCoubrey. He also shows up in Church receipts in 1849. From all of this I deduce that Clara's husband's name was Richard A. McCoubrey and that he was employed by his father in printing the Times.

27/0203:

Helen Steinke confirmed these assumptions in an email: "2nd marriage- RICHARD ALEX McCOUBRY - worked for the Times Newspaper in St. John's, Newfoundland."
