Scotland to Quebec
Agnes was born in 1803 in Forforeshire (Angus) Scotland. For some reason was sure she was born aboard ship, but was WRONG. Agnes Nicoll married 1 Valentine Albright in 26 Jun 1820 in St. Andrews, Argenteuil, Lower Canada (now Quebec) & then in 1839 to 2 Thomas Dodd in Argenteuil, LowerCanada (now Quebec). She passed away in 1867 in Cortland, New York. She was 10 years older than husband 2. They lived on a farm near Cortland, New York. Both are buried in the Truxton Cemetery, Cortland, NY.
Proof of her marriage to Valentine Aubert or Albright is on her Marriage Bond. Years ago had a helpful chap telling me that Aubert and Albright; were the same person. Research in St. Andrews suggest he was known as Albright but the government put down Aubert. Spelling of names back then is really dicey.
Below are two listings by different people. Eddy King suggests it is this Agnes and also the lst person suggest the same person. They were both correct.
