Biography

Freeman Harvey Trefry was born circa 1849, the son of Freeman Trefry and Keziah Marr of Brighton, St. Mary's Bay, Digby, Nova Scotia^{[1] [2]}

On November 13, 1873, he married Rosalie Deveau, of Brighton^[3] (Note his parents are clearly indicated on the marriage cert).

Rosalie (Deveau) Trefry died on March 9, 1876^[4] (note the maiden name Deveau is clearly indicated on the death cert). There is no record of children.

The 1881 Census^[5] shows Freeman, a widower living with his parents.

On March 25, 1882, he married Anna^[1], and they had a child named Guive S Trefry^{[1] [6]}

Note: he is the same age as Freeman Trefry of Springhaven, who married Arabella Curry, and who died Dec 27, 1918 (with a FAG memorial). These are two different men, second cousins, with different parents in different towns. They both appear in the 1871 Census at this time also.
