I'm working on Kierstead/Keirstead families. The Death Certificates for KIERSTEAD, ELIZABETH (nee Cosman) (28 Nov 1846 - 19 Feb 1931) names her parents as [Father: James Cosman (b. NB) and Mother: Mary Gorham (b. NB)]

This means that James Cosman's wife was Mary Gorham.

Darlene Love (kindredkonnections.com) has James death date as Apr 5, 1857.

Research by Douglas Ivan Cosman:

The eldest, James Thomas, the third, Barbara Ann Gorham, and the fourth, John Nelson, together with their families moved to the then developing area just beyong the head of the Millstream parish and were granted properties now known as Roy Cosman's place, The Frazee place, and the Gregg farm(?). Some time later John Nelson or his family sold to the Gregg family and purchased part of what is now known as Kenneth Cosman's farm.
