William John Foote

William and Jessie Foote immigrated from England and arrived on the Quill Plains with their four children in the fall of 1905.  They had secured their homestead on NW.20.31.18 by applying in Winnipeg on their journey across Canada, after crossing the Atlantic from Liverpool on the Royal Mail steamer "Virginian".

The Foote family were honored by having the Foote School District named after them.
