NotesIn 1901, John Rotheram, 10, arrived at Quebec, Canada, with a group of 260 Barnardo children from London to Toronto (193), Peterborough, Ontario (6) and to Russell, Manitoba (60).

Thursday, October 4, 1906, Orangeville Banner:

John Rutheram, a 16-year old Barnardo Home boy from England who has been employed at Joseph Kendrew's, Primrose, for the past year and half, was one of those working at Samuel Buchanan's threshing, lot 29, Prince of Wales Road, Mono, on Tuesday. When quitting time came in the evening, Rutheram, who was on a stack of straw, undertook to slide off with his fork in his hand. By some means he held the fork by the tines instead of by the handle, and on landing he fell forward on the tines, which penetrated his abdomen above the lower rib, and doubtless went into his heart, as he put his hands to the injured part and said, "I'm hurt here!" fell forward, gasped a couple of times and was dead before the startled onlookers scarcely realized what had happened. Coroner Steele, of Shelburne, viewed the body, but deemed an inquest to be unnecessary. The funeral takes place to Shelburne Cemetery this morning (Thursday) at 10 o'clock.

His death certificate recorded a Dr. Steel determined his death on October 2, 1906, to be instant due to a fork coming out of mow - accident struck in stomach.
