Horace Watson (“Wick”) Wickenden was born in South Sea, Hampshire, England, in 1901. He immigrated to Canada in 1921, settling in Saskatchewan in 1922. Wickenden attended Normal School in Regina, before earning his BA from the University of Saskatchewan (1929). He continued to take classes in art through the University of Saskatchewan, studying with Augustus Kenderdine (1929-1933), Nikola Bjelajac (1947-1951) and Eli Bornstein (1950-1953). Wickenden served with the Royal Canadian Air Force (1942-1945) and while stationed in Alberta, again used the opportunity to take art classes, this time at Coste House in Calgary, Alberta with Henry George Glyde (1943). Wickenden taught English and art at City Park Collegiate until his retirement in 1964. He also taught at Emma Lake (1952, 1953), and served as director and vice-president of the Saskatoon Art Centre from 1946 to 1948. He married artist Margaret Mary Robertson (born 1915, Winnipeg, Manitoba). Margaret moved to Saskatoon in 1938, and also took evening classes at the University of Saskatchewan with Eli Bornstein and Nikola Bjelajac (1946-1956). She was a member of the Saskatoon Art Centre, and held membership in the Society of Canadian Painter-Etchers and Engravers. Both Horace and Margaret Wickenden had their work exhibited in Saskatchewan and Ontario; Horace Wickenden was part of a group exhibition at the National Gallery of Canada in 1944. Wickenden Crescent, in Saskatoon, is named in their honour. Horace died in Saskatoon in 1995; Margaret died in Victoria, BC, in 2000.

Margaret Elizabeth Hunter, born April 18, 1849, and William Adam Hunter, born June 17, 1845, married in Dumfrese, Scotland on December 22, 1870. A year later they immigrated to Canada, settling first in Cayuga, Ontario. In 1883, Margaret's brother, Thomas Copland, encouraged them to move west with the Saskatoon Temperance Colonization Society and they built a home at Llewellyn. Margaret and William had 7 children; their two oldest daughters, Mary Kerr Hunter and Barbara Elizabeth Hunter, married brothers from the Anderson family - Burpee James Anderson and Newton Joseph Anderson, respectively. Margaret's brother, Thomas Copland, was one of the first settlers in Saskatoon, and was trained as a chemist and druggist. The University of Saskatchewan is located on his original homestead.
