The sources for Nancy's father, Martin Moore, show that he was one of the first settlers in Nepean Twp., Carleton Co., Upper Canada. He only received his land grant for Clarendon Twp., Pontiac Co., Lower Canada in 1826. It is this timeline that leads me to believe that his early children were born in Nepean before relocating to Clarendon.

Census records indicate she was born in Lower Canada. What is the source for her Nepean Upper Canada birth?
