Charles F. McBride (1909-1972)
Charles F. McBride was the manager of the DAR's Digby Wharf and agent for DAR and CPR steamships in the 1930s and 40s. He was also an amateur photographer and collected DAR facts and documents. He compiled a roster of DAR locomotives based on 1930s records and memories of older DAR men. (1)
It is believed that he was still working at the Wharf at the time of his death, although by that time, the wharf was at its current location at the entrance to the Annapolis Basin, rather than in downtown Digby. Charlie was also the Commodore at the Western Nova Scotia Yacht Club in Digby for many years. Charlie was a good friend of and worked for many years with Ted Dakin. (2)
