ID # 10003, (1856-1946)
| Birth | Joanna Hardy was born on 2 November 1856 at England. |
| Marriage | She married John Dickson, son of James H. Dickson and Hannah Murdoch, on 10 April 1890 at Galt, Waterloo Co., Ontario. Mrge reg. 012393-90 Galt, Waterloo Co. Jhn. M. Dickson, 46, widower, railway employee, Presbyterian. Born Scotland, residing Township of Nelson. Parents James and Hannah Dickson. Laura Hardy, 38, spinster, Church of England. Born England, residing Galt. Parents Robert and Sarah Hardy. The names of the witnesses, both of Galt, are poorly written. The last name of the first shown witness appears to be Bowman. The first name of the second witness is Mary. On 10th April, 1890, at Galt, by Rev'd John Ridley. The handwriting on the above form is difficult to put it mildy. The bride's name, shown here as Laura Hardy, appears to be as written on the form, though a close examination makes it questionable. Her gravestone in Mountview Cemetery has been transcribed by the Waterloo branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society and this tells us that her name appears on the stone as Joanna. This tree shows her as Joanna. |
| Death | She died on 4 May 1946 at 165 Main St., Galt, Waterloo Co., at age 89. |
| Burial | She was buried on 6 May 1946 at Mountview Cemetery, Galt. |

Burial Mountview Cemetery, Galt, May 4, 1946. The form shows Joanna being buried the same day that she died. This is possible, but not reasonable. In the event, May 6th, 1946 is her correct date of burial. She was said to be Anglican and the Brant County branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society did a transcription of some records of Trinity Anglican Church in Galt. This tells us that Joanna was buried on May 6, 1946. |
