Biography

• Josephine was born in 1862. She was the daughter of William Hodgins and Almira Milks. She passed away in 1925.
• Birth Place corrected to "match" family's residence on 1871 census - taking into account that, in 1862, Quebec was then known as Canada East.
  • The entire north shore of the Ottawa River (Lower Canada/Canada East/Quebec) from Montreal to Aylmer was originally Ottawa County. As the population grew and the City of Ottawa (Ontario) grew, Ottawa County was broken up and renamed. References to Ottawa County in old records continue to confuse genealogists.
