| Note | Volume 3 of the Fraser Family Saga, page 163, make reference to Ann, or Annie's, marriage to Israel Ward about 1865 - a much too early date - and tells of a photograph of the family that included 3 boys and 2 girls. Your researcher has seen the same photograph and it may at some level be correct, but this is not shown in anything resembling a birth registration for children that relate to Israel and his first wife Matilda or to his marriage to Ann Sanders Harvie. Conversely, no birth registrations have been found for children for Annie and her first husband, William Jones. Add to that, census information does not show any children wherein the couples make their appearance. It may be that the photograph is mislabelled. The baptism of Ann Sanderson Harvie is found on United Church of Canada Archives microfilm LCM-30. It is dated May 3, 1840, and does show her middle name as Sanderson.
