Notes about Louis Henry Davis Sherren

Louis ran the farm with help from his wife and children, and at the same time maintaining his trade as a plasterer. He had acquired this skill from his father, William, and became very well known for his excellent work throughout the area.

They gave up the farm for a period between 1944 and 1948 so they could focus on their careers in plastering and nursing. Upon moving back to the country, they purchased a cow for their first daughter Mary to milk. Her younger brother, Jack, eventually took over this responsibility. Crops consisted of mixed farming and focused on cucumbers, which Dorothy and the children cropped to be sold to the pickling factories.

In 1953, Louis and Dorothy moved from their homestead in Crapaud, to Charlottetwon, so she could be closer to her work. Louis sold the farm in Crapaud and later, in 1957, purchased a grocery store in Charlottetown. He managed this with the help of his children. During this time he still continued to work in his trade as a plasterer.

In 1971, Dorothy and Louis moved to Ontario where they could be closer to their children and grandchildren who lived in the area. Here, Dorothy worked at the Stratford General Hospital and Whitby Psychiatric Center outside of Toronto.
