The 1861 census in Beverly shows John and Mary Elliot on the same page as Gilbert Field, Mary's father. The 1861 census has a column for year of marriage. Enumerators did not always enter information in this field, but certainly did so on the page for the Elliot and Field families. The year of marriage given for John and Mary is 1849.

Our information for Mary as a daughter of Gilbert Chrysler Field and Rebecca Eleanor Vrooman is taken initially from a transcription of Copetown Cemetery as done by the Hamilton Branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society. She is buried with her husband, John Elliot Sr. in their plot in Copetown Cemetery and the inscription on her gravestone is transcribed as Mary Elliot, daughter of Cap. G. G. Field. Her dates of birth and death are given, and her date of death agrees with that of her 1918 death registration.

The initials of Gilbert Field we must believe to be incorrectly transcribed for Interment.net's transcription of the cemetery, done in later years by Gloria Pare, has his initials transcribed as G. C. Field.
