151 | According to his death record, he was to be buried at Fern Hill Cemetery and then reburied at the Methodist Burial Ground in the Spring. | MOSHER, William Albert (I162444)
|
152 | According to his grandson, Warren Wakefield Eisner, Peter Brown's actual name was Dunne (which means Brown). He escaped Ireland as the British had a price on his head. He worked in a logging camp and always had men travel with him for protection. One day he decided to travel alone. He was found dead under a bridge the next day, having been shot . The locals said it was the British who took care of him which Warren stated was untrue. In his words, "The truth of the matter was that whenever he drank he was a miserable bastard to the local Indians. It was they who did him in." | DUNNE, Peter (I186690)
|
153 | According to his great-granddaughter, he was killed in an explosion in Mendocino County. | BODY, Robert (I254852)
|
154 | According to his marker, he died aged 1 yr, 10 mos. | CORKUM, Edward Steadman (I292249)
|
155 | According to his obit, he was age 86 at his death in Jan 1995, which would place his birth in 1908. While this is certainly possible, two facts seem to contradict this. First, he does not appear in the 1911 Census. Also, his sister Edna, who wa born Feb 1991 was born in Berwick yet the family is living in Middelton in the 1991 Census. So it would seem that the family moved from Berwick to Middleton in the Spring of 1911, and Fred's obit tells us that he was born in Middleton. Thus it would seem more likely that the age at death given in his obit is wrong and that he was born after 1911. | PATTERSON, Frederick Gesner (I115267)
|
156 | According to his obit, he was the son of Wallace and Ruth (BAKER) GAULTON. But since his surname was BAKER, Wallace GAULTON may or may not have been his biological father. | BAKER, Walter (I201292)
|
157 | According to his obit, Laurence and Margaret (McKittrick) Himmelman had one son and four daughters, plus one stepson and two stepdaughters.. | HIMMELMAN, Laurence Arthur (I292304)
|
158 | According to his obit, Raymond Brice PARKER met his wife Anne HALL in 1996; so it would appear that his children are from a previous marriage. | (--?--) (I231935)
|
159 | According to his obit, they had four sons and one daughter. | Family: Calvin Eugene NOWE / Patricia Elsie JONES (F124069)
|
160 | According to his son, his birth was registered under both Clarence Adolphus and Stanley Donald SLAUNWHITE; he used Clarence for much of his life, but switched to Stanley in the 1970's. | SLAUENWHITE, Clarence Adolphus (I24449)
|
161 | According to his WW I Draft Registration card, he was living in Kansas City, MO with a wife and three children. | BOUTILIER, Roy Leeman (I63101)
|
162 | According to his WWI Draft papers, he is single and living in Medicine Hat, AB on 8 Jan 1918. | MERSON, Aubrey Harris (I154400)
|
163 | According to local legend, he did away with his wife, wheeled her down to the wharf in a barrow, and dumped her in the dock. | SLAUENWHITE, Redvers George (I1939)
|
164 | According to Minnie's death certificate, she is a widow when she dies in 1964. However, in 1964, her husband is living in British Columbia has has remarried. So either the death certificate is in error and they were divorced, or her widowhood is geographic, not biological. | Family: Egbert Charles HENSHAW / Minnie Minton ARMSTRONG (F100697)
|
165 | According to NSHVS, John Benjamin DANIELS, s/o James and Hattie, was born 29 Aug 1913 at Bridgewater, but he does not appear with the family in the 1921 Census. I had thought that might be simply an omission in the census as a son named John lives on Toronto in 1967. But in looking at son Harry Albert, it now seems that he was born 29 Aug 1913, and although he does not have a birth record, he does appear in the 1921 census. Further, there is nothing to indicate that John Benjamin 1913 was a twin. My guess is that John Benjamin's parents changed their minds about his name and didn't bother to amend the birth record, which takes the count to their children down to 13. But we know that a son named John was living in Toronto in 1967 and if you believe that John Benjamin became Harry Albert, then the count goes back up to 14 and son John was probably born after 1921 as there is a large gap in the birth order from 1921 - 1927. | DANIELS, Harold Albert (I287363)
|
166 | According to one published source, the family moved to Boston in 1860. However, according tot he US Census. they arrived in 1866, which means that Nessy appears to have been born and died in NS. | WHEELOCK, Nessy (I38203)
|
167 | According to the 1871 Census, Annie was born four years before the marriage of Charles and Ann (MORASH) FADER, raising the suspicion that she was the child of one or the other by a previous relationship or perhaps a relative. | FADER, Annie (I129954)
|
168 | According to the 1871 Census, this George LOHNES is age 35 and Anglican, so he may be either George William 1834 or George Michael 1833. | LOHNES, George (I105593)
|
169 | According to the 1901 Census, where she appears as Hazel FORSYTHE, she is actually a granddaughter of Robert and Janet. However, in all subsequent records,she appears as their daughter, Hazel BOUTILIER | BOUTILIER, Hazel Jean (I108519)
|
170 | According to the 1910 Census of Boston, this couple was childless. In 1930, she was a widow living in Revere, MA. | MCDORMAND, Emily (I32550)
|
171 | According to the 1921 Census, he was born 5 yrs before his parents marriage. So, whose child he actually is seems to be an unanswered question. | LEVY, Edward (I216127)
|
172 | According to the 1930 Census, George DURLAND enters the US in 1926, and there is no NS death certificate for son Lee. So, if I had to guess, it would be that Lee dies in a MA hospital. | DURLING, Lee (I33872)
|
173 | According to the 1930 Census, Leda (HALL) McENTEE arrived in the US in 1919; so, it would appear that they married in the US. | Family: Lester H. KINNARD / Leda Belle HALL (F82182)
|
174 | According to the Christian Messenger, wife Rebecca SLAUNWHITE died in the 25th year of her age, placing her death bet. May 1859- Apr 1860. And given the context of the article, it would appear that she dies near the end of that period. Now given that Austin BAKER is born Apr 1860, it doesn't seem even remotely possible that he is the child of Susanna SIMS. So, if Austin's mother is Rebecca, then she has to die in Apr 1860, probably in or shortly after giving birth to Austin. Also, this means that Cordelia and Cyril are the children of Susanna SIMS, and this seems confirmed by an entry in the civil marriage register that has what looks like an "S" as the entry for Cordelia's mother. And finally, it seems almost certain that Jacob he marries her bet 1860-1861, probably in 1861. | LEVY, Jacob (I43462)
|
175 | According to the Complaints Board web site, he also used the name William Nelson CASHEN in conjunction with internet scams. | CASHEN, Nelson Joseph (I312313)
|
176 | According to the death certificate of son Peter HEISLER, she was born at Eastern Passage, NS, but that does nor seem credible. | HATT, Alice Sophia (I137736)
|
177 | According to the family bible (and her NS Late registration of Birth), she was b. 21 Dec 1881. However, she appears in the 1881 Census aged 3 mos! | ZWICKER, Sarah Ellen (I191818)
|
178 | According to the Inscription Survey of Fairview Cemetery, Edna M. WHITMAN, d/o Burpee S. WHITMAN, d. 18 Dec 1884 at age 3 yrs, 7 mos. But this would place her birth in May 1881, which is impossible since her sister, Nellie Ross WHITMAN, was born 5 July 1881. Since Charles B. Whitman has her d. 16 Dec 1887, it would appear that either the stone was inscribed long after the fact or is somewhat illegible. [Bob H] | WHITMAN, Edna May (I8905)
|
179 | According to the Lunenburg Progress-Enterprise, she died leaving three small children. | VEINOT, Harriet Irene (I209722)
|
180 | According to the MA Birth and Death Registers, he was born 1 Oct 1891 and died 27 Sep 1891. As the entries are not sequential in either register and appear to have been done after the fact in Jan 1892, it would appear that one or the other is in error. My guess is that his date of death should have been 27 Oct. | D'AUBIN, Frank Edward (I110118)
|
181 | According to the notes of Thomas Brenton Smith, James Solomon and Waitie ZWICKER had 21 children in all, including four who died in infancy. However his listing of those 21 children does not include two who can be identified from various records and who lived well beyond infancy. | Family: James Solomon ZWICKER / Waitie Elizabeth WEAGLE (F106325)
|
182 | According to the obit for Daughter Annie Mildred, they had a total of fifteen children--9 girls and 6 boys. In Apr 1983, only children Rita, Edith, and Mona were still living. | Family: Arthur James WAMBOLDT / Rosa Gertrude SHATFORD (F38103)
|
183 | According to the obit for grandson Cory, Peter and Patricia had six children--2 males and four females. | PHELAN, Peter Eugene Sr. (I216487)
|
184 | According to the obit for grandson Cory, Peter and Patricia had six children--2 sons and four daughters. Since Cory's father was named Luther, and his grandfather was names Peter, Sr., it would appear that the second son is named Peter, Jr. | PHELAN, Peter E. Jr. (I216496)
|
185 | According to the obit for their son Douglas Robert, Harry Gordon and Inez (Weagle) HUBLEY had a total of fourteen children, eight of whom predeceased Douglas Robert. [Bob H] | Family: Harry Gordon HUBLEY / Winnifred [Mae] HARNISH (F13219)
|
186 | According to the obit of Douglas Robert HUBLEY, he had thirteen siblings. [Bob H] | Family: Harry Gordon HUBLEY / Inez Iola WEAGLE (F21753)
|
187 | According to the obit of Ernest Douglas COOK, he was the second youngest of thirteen children. Apparently, four of those children must have died young as they are not mentioned in the obits of any of his siblings. | Family: John Steven COOK / Lillian May OAKE (F12358)
|
188 | According to the OLMC parish register, the marriage was re-validated on 12 Jun 1903 at OLMC. This means that James probably converted about this time since Isabella was already RC. [Bob H] | Family: James Arthur SLAUENWHITE / Isabella M. SLAUENWHITE (F6177)
|
189 | According to the Probate Court Records for Henry Alfred Whitman, she was one year old in May 1907. | WHITMAN, Mary Elsie (I41618)
|
190 | According to the record of his marriage to Annie FORBES, he was a widower at marriage. No record of a first marriage has been found [at least by me]; however, this appears to be factual as he is known to have a son born 1901, three years before his marriage to Annie FORBES. | (--?--) (I228293)
|
191 | According to the Terence Bay deaths manuscript, two of their daughters died in Dec 1897, and from other sources it was almost surely of diphtheria. However, the 1901 Census of this family is very confusing since the dates of birth for several daughters conflict with dates shown in the Emmanuel Anglican Parish Register. So it is almost impossible to determine which two died in 1897. [Bob H] | SLAUENWHITE, Andrew William (I16080)
|
192 | According to three different records (all of which were almost certainly copied from the same source), a Charles S. WILLIAMS, age 2, s/o Charles S. and Janie (NAISMITH) WILLIAMS dies in the Halifax Explosion. What is peculiar about this is that a son of Charles and first wife Fannie CANDON appears in the 1911 Census as Charles b. 1906; however, he does not have a death record., which should exist if he died between 1911 and 1915. Further, since the family was Catholic, a Catholic burial record [his sister Susan is bur. Mt. Olivet] should also exist but does not. So there is a strong possibility that the age shown on the Halifax Explosion records is a mistake, and there was only one son named Charles WILLIAMS. | WILLIAMS, Charles (I182540)
|
193 | Actually, the MA register has Alma HARNISH married to a Janet Rankin on this date (my transcription of the record has been verified as being accurate). But the 1910 Census of Gloucester, MA clearly proves that Alma W. HARNISH, son of Hezekiah (Alma's brother Seymour is a member of Alma's household), marries a Margaret COMERFORD (Lawrence COMERFORD, Alma's father-in-law is also a member of Alma's household); given that they have been married for one year on 1 April 1910, the odd are 3:1 that they were married in 1908. In addition, the birth and death records for a son who is born and dies on 31 Aug 1909 name the parents as Alma HARNISH and Margaret COMERFORD. So my suspicion is that somewhere in the MA Civil Marriage Registrations, someone who really married Janet RANKIN is shown as marrying Margaret COMERFORD. [Bob H] | Family: Alma Walford HARNISH / Margaret C. COMERFORD (F17901)
|
194 | Ada LEWIS appears in the 1910 Census but not in the 1920. | SLAUENWHITE, Ada Jemima (I11137)
|
195 | Ada Rebecca, and hs three different civil birth records. The first reports her birth as Ida in 1869 and gives her parents marriage date as 4 Nov 1869 at Blockhouse. The second reports her birth as Ida in 1870, gives her parents marriage date as 4 Nov 1861, says that Alfred is a farmer at Maitland (the others say Blockhouse), and says that they were married at Northfield! The third record has her as Ada, is entered in 1870, and gives the place of marriage (Blockhouse) but not the date. That second record--which gives an 1861 marriage date--might be a different person, but I think the much more likely explanation is that the register clerk was out of sorts. To complicate matters further, two Censuses tell us that daughter Louitia born 1868. So my best guess is that her parents were married 4 Nov 1867. | EISENHAUER, Ada Rebecca (I172739)
|
196 | Addie Williams lists a daughter Carrie in this family, and although many of her dates are incorrect, her placement of people in families appears flawless. It would appear that she was taken in by the family of an Edward SLAUENWHITE of Pleasntville after the death of her mother, as he appears as her "parent" in 1909 Pleasantville School Records. | LOHNES, Carrie Elizabeth (I105607)
|
197 | Additional notes for Elsie WHITE and her children are held in private. | WHITE, Elsie Florence (I163518)
|
198 | Adopted | DAY, Clara (I14944)
|
199 | Adopted by her grandmother. | KETTERLE, Jessica A. Garris (I5560)
|
200 | Adopted by His Aunt Lavinia & Uncle Samuel David Harmon. Natural parents were William Henry and Fannie (Moser) Bush. [Source: Paul Harmon] | BUSH, Samuel Thomas (I8179)
