Biographical history
The eldest daughter of celebrated early Ontario artist Daniel Fowler, Annie Fowler was born in London, England on 31 March 1837. Brought to Upper Canada by her parents in 1843, she settled with them on Amherst Island, located in Lake Ontario, a few mile west of Kingston, Ontario. Following the early death of her first husband, a Mr. Rothwell, she married the Reverend I.J. Christie, rector of the Anglican Church in North Gower, Ontario in 1895 A prolific writer from an early age, Annie Christie contributed prose, in the form of short stories, to American, English, and Canadian periodicals, and poetry to the "Magazine of Poetry". She published three novels, in serial form: 'Alice Gray' (1873), 'Edged Tools' ("Appleton's Journal", 1880), and 'Requital' (1886); and one in book form, 'Loved I not honour more' (Toronto: 1887). Her later years were spent in Ottawa. Annie (Fowler) Rothwell Christie died in New Liskard, Ontario, on 2 July 1927.
