Biography

Mary's daughter Elizabeth said, on the 1900 US Census, that her mother was born on Prince Edward Island. Elizabeth gave different years of birth, but she was born sometime between 1827-1835. Her mother would have been born around 1805 - 1815.

Information on Elizabeth's death record was provided by her daughter Flora. Flora said both of her grandparents were born in Prince Edward Island, contradicting her mother's entry on the 1900 Census. She may not have known her grandmother's maiden name. Flora was about 7 when her parents left Prince Edward Island.

Research Notes

It seems unlikely that the find a grave entry is the right mother for Elizabeth. Both the age and place are wrong.
