7351 | This Ezra BEERY is the only Ezra BERRY in the NS Census from 1871 to 1901, and the Ezra Berry living in Bridgeport, CT states that he was born in NS. Further, the DOB of the Ezra BERRY in CT records varies from 1865-1870. So I suspect that they are the same person. | BERRY, Ezra (I35839)
|
7352 | This family has a daughter named Ella ADAMS, age eight, the 1881 Census, and a daughter Minnie ADAMS, age 18, in the 1891 Census. But in 1926, sister Florence applies to register the birth of Minnie Ella ADAMS born 25 May 1881 and it is this date that appears on Minnie's 1929 Death Certificate. It appears highly probable that these are all the same person and the question is--when was she actually born. If she were born in 1881, this would leave a ten-year gap in the birth order. But more importantly, since her birth is registered 46 years after the fact, the 1881 and 1891 Censuses appear more credible. SO it seems most likely that she was actually born 25 May 1871. | ADAMS, Minnie Ella (I72789)
|
7353 | This family is a very perplexing puzzle. The facts are these: a. An Elizabeth [Nell] HARNISH, b. 1864 at Halifax, marries James William SLAUENWHITE at SPFV in 1880 and gives her parents as Henry and Mary. She later resides at Tantallon or thereabouts. b. An Albert HARNISH, b. 1871 m. Laura PHILIPS at SMB in 1892 and they reside in that same general area. He gives his parents as Henry and Mary. c. A Sarah HARNISH, widow, b. 1865 at Halifax, marries a John FERGUSON at SMB in 1887. She gives her parents as Henry and Sarah. One of the witnesses to her marriage is a William SLAUENWHITE. I have no idea who her first husband is. d. In 1901, a widow named Mary HARNISH is living next door to James William and Nell (Harnish) SLAUENWHITE at Tantallon (or thereabouts). She is living in the household of Benjamin HURSHMAN, bachelor, b. 1852. e. Nobody that I am aware of has been able to find the family of Henry and Mary HARNISH and their children in any Census of Nova Scotia. f. The closest matches to Henry are John Henry, b. 1840 at Mill Cove, and Henry, b. 1837 at Hubbard's Cove. g. A Josephine HARNISH (see notes for her) marries a William Albert HUBLEY and gives her parents as as Henry and Mary. A gggrandaughter states that Josephine's mother's name was Mary Ann JENNINGS. I think the probability is very high that this is all one family. Based on his age and Hubbard's Bay location, I also believe the father is Henry, b. 1837 [Bob H] | HARNISH, John Henry (I27192)
|
7354 | This in NOT the Charles WENTZELL 1851 who m. Susan MUNRO and moves to NH. | WENTZELL, Charles Gideon (I180646)
|
7355 | This infant probably died in NS bef 1886 as there is no MA birth or death record. | SALTZMAN, (--?--) (I182469)
|
7356 | This is not the James Albert ZWICKER who m.Catherine STRUM. | ZWICKER, James Albert (I179754)
|
7357 | This is not the Mary Elizabeth ERNST who m. Philip LANTZ as he d. 1871. | ERNST, Mary Elizabeth (I173890)
|
7358 | This is believed to be the same George Arthur SLAUNWHITE whose DOB is given as 21 Aug 1896 on his WW I enlistment papers. [Bob H] | SLAUENWHITE, George Ambrose (I14846)
|
7359 | This is NOT the Flora WENTZELL who d. 4 May 1990 in Cambridge, MA.. | NORWOOD, Flora Beatrice (I197005)
|
7360 | This is not the husband or either Susannah Gertrude BARKHOUSE or Maria Catherine BARKHOUSE. In his LWT, George Peter ZWICKER states: "I also order that my son Jonas keep and maintain my sick son John in a kind manner and give him good treatment . . . during his life." He is said to have injured his back at age 16 and been an invalid there after. | ZWICKER, Johann William (I184768)
|
7361 | This is not the Solomon VEINOT who m. Mary Ann HERMAN. | VEINOT, Solomon (I169985)
|
7362 | This is NOT the WIlliam Enos Fancy b. 24 Jul 1855, s/o James Frederick and Anna Catherine (RAMEY) FANCY. That William Enos dies 21 Oct 1899, age 44, at Upper Northfield. [Lana Veinotte] | FANCY, William Enos (I1490)
|
7363 | This is probably either Albert or Clifford. | WILE, Infant (I259046)
|
7364 | THis is probably either Deamos or James. | HILTZ, (--?--) (I83473)
|
7365 | This is the date of his Petition. | BOLIVAR, Ira Lester (I2183)
|
7366 | This James Slauenwhite is an enigma. The man who married Amanda Himmelman first appears in their marriage record, which names him as James W. Slauenwhite, age 21, born St. Margaret's Bay, s/o John Jacob and Sarah Slauenwhite. In the 1901 census, his DOB is given as 12 Feb 1848, and his age in the 1891 census agrees with an 1848 DOB. As to his parents, there was only one John Jacob Slaunwhite who married a woman named Sarah and lived at St. Margaret's Bay, and their children all appear in the Parish of French Village baptismal records. In those baptismal records, there are two sons named James, one born 1844 and another born 1857. However, there is also a son named George Henry whose his DOB is given as the exact same date that appears for James in the 1901 Census! Also, four of John and Sarah's children were baptised on 19 Feb 1851, seven days before one of the four--John Frederick--was buried. So it can be hypothesized that, in all the confusion, the clergy got one or more names and dates transposed. According to the records however, the James b. 1844 was not one of the four; he was baptised 1844. But it does seem curious that his older brother, John Jacob, was one of the four baptised in 1851, not 1844! Finally, his death certificate gives his DOB as 12 Feb 1847. But like many Nova Scotians of his vintage, he may have gotten that from the Census. What seems clear is that James, husband of Amanda, was the son of John Jacob and Sarah [Hurshman] Slauenwhite. But as to when he was born, I cannot yet untangle the facts. BeCAUSe he seems to have been baptised in 1844, I have used the 1844 DOB. [Bob H] | SLAUENWHITE, James William (I2587)
|
7367 | This John BLACKBURN is a puzzle. He is shown in the 1871 Census of Terence Bay in the family of Samuel F. and Mary (McInnes) BLACKBURN, but it is not clear whether he is a son or grandson, as they are elderly at the time. It seems more likely that he was a grandson, but if so, then the problem becomes--who were his parents. The most likely candidate is Ann Margaret who, at age 36 when John in near grown, marries a 54-year old man. There is no known evidence to support his being the illegitimate son of Ann Margeret, but since it seems (at least to me) to be the most credible of the available explanations, he has been so placed here. [Bob H] | BLACKBURN, John Nelson (I21260)
|
7368 | This John George is believed to have married Sarah LANTZ as he seems to be the only available candidate. Similarly, the children born at Clearland are believe to belong to this family beCAUSe this John and Sarah seem to be the only available couple that fits the profile. | SCHNARE, John George (I181456)
|
7369 | This John SMITH is a bachelor living with Johann Urban SMITH and his second wife in 1871, which makes him seem to look like a son. | SMITH, John Jr. (I159577)
|
7370 | This just might be Charles Augustus FADER appearing twice in the 1871 Census. | FADER, Augustus (I126853)
|
7371 | This Maria HARNISH is carried as the wife of Francis SCHWARTZ based on the fact that one of the witnesses to the marriage is Sarah Conrad, wife of Mary's brother, James Jacob HARNISH. She is noted as the tenth child of George and Mary HARNISH. [Bob H] | HARNISH, Maria (I52739)
|
7372 | This marriage does not appear in the Halifax County Index to Civil Marriage Registrations so is probably after 1916. Also, although all her known children are listed here as belonging to her second husband, Edgar HUBLEY, it is probable that one or more were the issue of her first marriage. [Bob H] | Family: Edgar HUBLEY / Effie May BREMNER (F12458)
|
7373 | This marriage is found is the work or Heather Long and Willa Kaizer. | Family: John Jacob BOEHNER / Catherine Barbara MOSHER (F77913)
|
7374 | This Mary Harnish is carried as the spouse of William WESTHAVER as there is no other Mary HARNISH, spinster, b. abt. 1815, who would have been available to marry on 16 Nov 1841. She is noted as the 9th child of John George and Polly. [Bob H] | HARNISH, Mary Elizabeth (I46934)
|
7375 | This may be a burial date. | GORMAN, Eleanor Julia (I60994)
|
7376 | This may be the Florence Rafuse whose obit appears 16 Dec 1980. | SLAUENWHITE, Laliah Florence (I4166)
|
7377 | This may not be her maiden name. | DAUPHINEE, Alberta (I223925)
|
7378 | This may not be the Ann Blackburn listed in Cruikshanks who dies in 1920. However, she is in the right place, she is a widow (like the woman who d. 1920), and there are few other candidates. [Bob H] | NORRIS, Annie (I15919)
|
7379 | This may not be the right Henry E. (Harry) CARMEL, i.e., the husband of Doris FOGG, but all the circumstantial evidence points to him. First, the announcement of his marriage to Doris FOGG states that he is formerly of Springfield, MA; and second, he is the only Henry (Harry) CARMEL who is known to have lived and died in Portsmouth, NH, at least in the right time frame. | CARMEL, Henry Edward (I137327)
|
7380 | This may or may not be the correct Earl MacKENZIE. However, he is the only Earl MacKENZIE [or other McKENZIE variant spelling] the 1911 Census of NA, and he lives in Queens County. [Bob H] | MACKENZIE, Earle (I9986)
|
7381 | This may or may not be the Ida SLAUNWHITE of Terence Bay who dies 4 May 1935. However, she is the right religion and all other Ida SLAUENWHITE's (either by birth or by marriage) seem to be ruled out. [Bob H ] | SLAUENWHITE, Jennifer (I17519)
|
7382 | This may or may not be the John GARDNER who m. Elizabeth SNOW. However, he is the right age, is in the right place, and is the correct religion. | GARDNER, John (I127622)
|
7383 | This Michael SCHLAGINTWEIT is the only know SCHLAGINTWEIT who could be the father of Louisa. | Family: Johann Michael SCHLAGINTWEIT / Maria Barbara BLUMHART (F50919)
|
7384 | This might be Sylvia JOUDREY. | (--?--), Sylvia (I269920)
|
7385 | This might be William Hall STARRAT, b. 1832. [Bob H] | STARRATT, William (I41661)
|
7386 | This Minnie SLAUNWHITE may or may not be the mother of Bernard SLAUNWHITE by Horace PEMBERTON. However, she is the only known SLAUENWHITE (by whatever spelling) who bears the name of Minnie and seems to fit all the requirements. [Bob H] | SLAUENWHITE, Minnie L. (I15659)
|
7387 | This Norman SLAUNWHITE is identified in Lower Prospect/TB deaths as the son of Alexander and as died 16 Nov 1891. Since he does not appear in the 1891 census, it seems likely that he was born after the census was taken. [Bob H] | SLAUENWHITE, Norman (I25850)
|
7388 | This person is an enigma. First, it is unclear who her mother actually was since the 1901 census states that she was born in Ontario; she may be the child of William Gerrard by a previous wife. Second, the wife of William Gerrard in 1901 is Susan Jollimore, whose son by Gorge Innes seems to change his name from Innes to Jollimore. It may well be that the Rita Jollimore who dies in 1916 is a different person than Rita Gerrard, but the only Rita living in Terence Bay in the 1901 census, regardless of age, is Rita Gerrard, daughter of Susan Jollimore. [Bob H] | GERRARD, Rita Alice (I16176)
|
7389 | This Peter LITTLE's death record states that he is single' however, he is buried in the same plot with his wife. | LITTLE, Peter (I28614)
|
7390 | This Peter MOSER is a puzzle. The conventional wisdom places him in the 1901 Census, in the family of John Jacob and Mary Dorothy (BUSHEN) MOSER, but I have grave doubts about this beCAUSe: a. In 1871 and at marriage, he is Methodist (his wife is C of E in 1871, so she does not explain a Methodist marriage) b. At marriage he says he was born at Lunenburg, not West Dublin c. A nine years gap in John Jacob's birth order looks highly suspect d. I don't see no real evidence that suggests he belongs in this family. A sort on all the MOSER's of Lunenburg County quickly comes to that of Frederick and Sophia (WINTERS) MOSER beCAUSe: a. They are Methodist b. At least two of their children are known to have been born at Lunenburg and the rest appears to have been born next door at First South. c. At least one genealogy has a John b. abt. 1839 in this family. The problem with placing him in the family of Fred and Sophia is twofold: a. Even though he is living when Fred dies, he does not appear in Fred's will while every other son does. b. If Fred and Sophia are his parents, why does he give his parents as Jacob and Mary at marriage? In searching through the MOSER couples that I know of who bore the names Jacob and Mary, the only one that seems to fit is this one. So on balance, there appears to be no reasonable alternative to placing him here, pending further discoveries. | MOSHER, George Peter (I164151)
|
7391 | This Rachel is identified as the wife of Levi OXNER by a notation in their marriage record stating that she is the third daughter of John. | Family: John Levi OXNER / Rachel Dorcas COOK (F62683)
|
7392 | This Robert HARNISH is known to have married Lottie Olive HARNISH and it is known that a Robert HARNISH is the first husband of Dorothy FARNELL. But there is no document known at present that identifies this Robert HARNISH as her husband. What is known is that he was probably from the Sheet Harbour/Sober Island area and that Dorothy was born 1917. Further, this Robert HARNISH does not marry Lottie until he is age 33. Finally, he seems to be the only Robert HARNISH who fits the description. [Bob H] | HARNISH, Robert Thomas (I51492)
|
7393 | This Rosanna appears to have died as a small child since she appears in the 1891 Census but then her name is reused in Oct 1893. [Bob H] | BROPHY, Rosanna (I53435)
|
7394 | This Sophia Harnish is carried as the wife of Nicholas SARRE as there appears to be no other Sophia HARNISH, spinster whom it could be. [Bob H] | HARNISH, Sophia Elizabeth (I5799)
|
7395 | This was a common-law marriage. | Family: Arthur SWEENEY / Margaret Mary SLAUENWHITE (F7795)
|
7396 | This was probably a date of burial. | COOLEN, Joseph (I42087)
|
7397 | This was the first marriage ever solemnized on Tancook Island. [Source: Parish Register, St. John's Anglican, Lunenburg, NS] | Family: George Nelson BAKER / Maria Elisabeth SLAUENWHITE (F839)
|
7398 | Thomas BEAZLEY is a widower in the 1884 Census of Burrin Bay, NF, and there are no other Thomas BEAZLEY's in Burrin Bay in 1884. Since wife his Maria LOCKYEAR dies in 1874, Mary b. 1889 cannot be her daughter. However Mary B. 1889 gives her parents names as Thomas and Maria at Marriage. So possibly, there was second wife named Maria? | BEAZLEY, Mary A. (I103454)
|
7399 | Thomas Brenton Smith's notes cite the Liverpool Transcript edition of 25 Feb 1864 as reporting the following: “married at Milford, on the 4th instant by Rev. Thomas Monroe, Mr. Wm. A. Steadman and Miss Sophia Hubaly, both of that place”. I know of no other Sophia HUBLEY of Milford who this could be. [Bob H] | Family: William A. STEADMAN / Sophia HUBLEY (F26534)
|
7400 | Three children of Angelina SLAUNWHITE, single woman, were baptised at St. Luke's in 1885. However, in their marriage records, two of Angelina SLAUNWHITE's children gave their name as Innes, and their father's name as James. [Iris Shea] Also, the birth record of Isabella SLAUNWHITE, illegitimate daughter of Lena SLAUNWHITE, shows the father as James Innes. [Bob H] James Thomas Innes, b. 9 Dec 1853, lived in proximity to Angelina, was essentially the same age as Angelina, was her second cousin once removed (and so probably would have been acquainted with her), thus he seems to be the most likely candidate for the James Innes Angelina's children reported as their father. [Bob H] | INNES, James Thomas (I17103)
