ID # 4378, (1836-1917)
| Father | Henry Culham (1810-1884) |
| Mother | Desdemona Ann Munn (1816-1849) |
| Birth | Rosetta Culham was born on 7 February 1836. |
| Marriage | She married Stephen Main, son of David Main and Ailsa Maria Weaver. A note here with regard to marriages in the Sheffield area of Beverly Township. The 1861 census, the earliest every-person census available to us shows Stephen and Mrs. Main as being of the United Brethren Church. The Culham family was of this church as well. Both families were there from early days. John A. Cornell was the founder of the First Church of Beverly and no doubt married, baptized and buried numerous members of his congregation. No book of these records has survived, however. The church is presently of the United Church of Canada and they have nothing for the Sheffield church in their archives. A conversation with one church historian indicates that they present congregants are unaware of any surviving record book for the church. Either none were kept, or they are now lost. |
