Ann Jerusha Carpenter
ID # 112, (1808-1879)
| Birth | Ann Jerusha Carpenter was born on 28 June 1808. |
| Marriage | She married Joseph Lawrason, son of Miller Lawrason and Elizabeth Purvis, on 5 December 1833. The wedding date of 5 December 1833 for Joseph and Anne is based on notes left by Thomas Stuart Lawrason. (See page 68 of Delores MacIntyre's work.) Stuart is a grandson of Joseph's son Miller Douglas Lawrason. This date will no doubt be correct. A marriage bond for Joseph and Ann was made out at Brantford on the 30th November, 1833, by John Carpenter of the Township of Dumfries and George Washington Case of the Town of Brantford. |
| Death | She died on 5 April 1879 at Simcoe, Norfolk County, Ontario, at age 70. |
| Burial | She was buried at St. George Cemetery. |
| Note | She See Vol. 7, Obituaries From Ontario's Christian Guardian, 1873 to 1880, Donald A. McKenzzie, Global Heritage Press, 2007, page 206. Lawrason, Mrs. Ann J., widow of the late Joseph Lawrason, d. of diptheria, 5th inst., at the res. of her son-in-law, D. Matthews, Simcoe; age, 71 - April 30, 1879, p. 144, D.N. Ann is buried with her husband in St. George Cemetery. No death registration has been found. We may say that, from the above death notice in the Christian Guardian, that Ann Jerusha Lawrason died on the 5th of April, 1879. The transcription done of St. George Cemetery by the Brant County Branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society has her date of death as 5 April, 1878. A later transcription done in 2003 shows her year of death as 1879. |
