Charles Coursolles McCaul was a lawyer who lived at 1900 Robson Street in 1904.
Charles Coursolles McCaul was born in Toronto, Ontario, on February 17, 1858. His father was the Rev. John McCaul (1807-1887), who was a clergyman and president of University College in Toronto. McCaul Street in Toronto is named after him. Charles’s mother was Emily Augusta Jones (1821-1896).
Charles went to Upper Canada College. He later studied at the University of Toronto, where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree and won a silver medal in natural science.
He went to Osgoode Hall and became a member of the Ontario bar in 1883. In July 1883 he moved to Macleod (also called “Fort Macleod”) in the North-West Territories, where he established a law practice.
In 1886 Charles became a member of the Law Society of the North-West Territories.
On May 12, 1887, in Lethbridge, Charles married Frances Greenwood. She was born on January 29, 1860. Her father was Edward Godfrey W. Greenwood (1807-1896), who was the city treasurer of Halifax for many years. Frances’s mother was Emily (“Emma”) Belcher Parker (born about 1822).
On June 23, 1887, Charles accidentally shot himself in the chest while cleaning his gun. The bullet entered the top of his rib cage and exited through his shoulder blade. Dr. George Kennedy “treated McCaul conservatively until signs of infection appeared.” Then a Dr. Mewburn “removed parts of two ribs underneath the right armpit, washed the chest cavity and left drains in place.” From then on Charles depended on his wife and the wives of Drs. Kennedy and Mewburn, who all regularly changed and dressed his wound. [“Dr. George Allan Kennedy, 1858-1913; Saving the Life of a Prominent Alberta Lawyer,” in Alberta’s Medical History, by Robert Lampard, https://www.albertadoctors.org/about/medical-history/patients-1st-for-over-100-years/kennedy.]
About 1887, the McCauls moved to Lethbridge, where they stayed until the end of 1891. Charles was named as a Queen’s Council in 1890.
By 1892, Charles and Frances were in Calgary, where Charles maintained his law practice with a series of law firms.
In 1897, Charles visited in Toronto with his sister, Annie Margaret, who was married to Maurice Hutton.
In 1899, Charles left Calgary to form a law practice with William White in Dawson City, Yukon.
The McCauls stayed in the Yukon only for a short time. In 1900, they went to San Francisco for a visit; Frances stayed in San Francisco while Charles travelled to Europe.
Charles returned briefly to the Yukon. Frances was in Toronto at the time of the 1901 Canada census.
Charles appeared in the 1902 Dawson directory.
About 1902, Charles moved from Dawson to Vancouver, and he first appeared in the Vancouver directories in 1903. He was living at 1365 Pender Street. He and Ernest John Deacon (1872-1939) had a law firm at 419 West Hastings Street.
In 1903, Charles joined the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club. In 1904, he became one of the original life members of the club.
By 1904, Ernest Deacon’s brother, William Stearne Deacon, had joined the law firm. Charles was living at 1900 Robson Street.
Shortly afterward, Charles became ill and he dissolved the law firm. He went to England and France for a year.
In 1905, he went to San Francisco, where he practiced law for a short time, but by 1906 he was back in Fort Macleod, Alberta.
In 1907, he moved to Edmonton, Alberta, where he remained for the rest of his working career.
Charles acted on many significant legal cases in Alberta, including the prosecution of two Inuit men, Sinnisiak and Uluksuk, for the murder of two priests. He also represented Nat Bell Liquors in an important administrative law case that went to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council..
Along with his extensive appearances in court, Charles was involved in academic legal matters. He took part in redrafting the Ordinances of the Northwest Territories, which led to the first Alberta statutes in 1905. He edited the Northwest Territories Law Reports. In 1910 he published “Remedies of Vendor and Purchaser,” which was the first major publication on Alberta real property law.
Charles was also interested in natural history, and he wrote a series of articles on the climate of Alberta.
At some point before 1921, Frances and Charles were divorced. By 1927 Frances was living at 79 Oriole Road in Toronto. She died on August 15, 1943.
In August 1921, Charles married Eugenie Marie Lachapelle, who was a nurse. She was born in Lamberton, Minnesota on December 4, 1885. Her father was Luc (sometimes Lucien or “Luke”) Lachapelle (1846-1926), who lived in Beaumont, Alberta.
During the First World War, Eugenie and her sisters, Leonie and Irma, were nurses with the Allied forces.
About 1926, Charles became seriously ill. After travels to London and Paris, he returned to Edmonton, and it appears that he stopped practicing law about this time.
He died at his home in Edmonton on August 10, 1928.
Charles was buried in the Edmonton Municipal Cemetery.
Eugenie’s sister, Leonie, died in Detroit in 1948.
Eugenie died in Clearwater, Pinellas County, Florida, in 1952.
Eugenie’s sister, Irma, died in Rochester, Minnesota in 1956.

Charles Coursolles McCaul fonds, Provincial Archives of Alberta, https://albertaonrecord.ca/charles-coursolles-mccaul-fonds: “Charles Coursolles (C.C.) McCaul was born in Toronto, Ontario, on 17 February 1858. He earned his law degree at Osgoode Hall in 1883, and later that year made his way west to Fort Macleod, North-West Territories. Over the next 24 years he moved a number of times, and practiced law in several provinces, states and territories, before settling in Edmonton, Alberta in 1907. He remained active in the legal profession until 1927, working for several firms including Friedman and Lieberman (1920-1925) and Stanton and Smith (1926). McCaul died in Edmonton in 1928. Over the course of his 43-year legal career McCaul developed a reputation for being one of the best attorneys in Western Canada. McCaul was granted designation as Queen’s Counsel in 1890, and he twice pled cases before the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council (JCPC) in London, England — one being the defence of the Nat Bell Liquor Company. This was a high profile case relating to the province’s liquor prohibition laws of the early 1920s. McCaul was actively engaged in the activities of the Alberta Bar Association, and he was a prolific writer and editor of legal works. He also took a keen interest in all matters dealing with the law, history, current affairs and natural history, writing extensively on the latter.”

Joseph Howe, and it was he who, as foreman of the jury before which Howe was tried in 1835 for criminal libel of the magistracy, pronounced the verdict of “not guilty,” which one for all established the liberty of the press in British North America.”
