Calvert Coates Pratt (1888-1963), son of Reverend John and Fannie (Knight) Pratt, was born at Blackhead on 6 October 1888. He married Agnes Horwood, daughter of Ephraim and Jessie Horwood, on 6 July 1916 and had two sons: Ewart and Calvert. Ewart married Yvonne Rorke, daughter of James Rorke and Kathleen (Forward) Rorke. Calvert Coates Pratt died in October 1963. The Rorke Family Photograph Collection contains 301 black and white and 28 colour photographs of the Rorke Family of Carbonear, Newfoundland, as well as the Forward and Bemister families from that area who are linked to it by marriage. Although spanning from the 1840s-1970s, most photos are from 1900-45, showing family events, homes and Newfoundland and Labrador locations. There is also an album of photos taken while James Rorke attended the Leys School in Cambridge, England.
