Eliza (--?--)

ID # 5000, (1842-1910)
BirthEliza (--?--) was born on 11 August 1842 at St. George, Brant Co.. 
DeathShe died on 26 November 1910 at Galt Hospital, Galt, Waterloo Co., Ontario, at age 68. 
MarriageShe married George Buchanan, son of William Buchanan and Jane Maria Griffith
NoteAn early marriage record for their daughter shows Ellen as Eliza. She is shown as Ellen in the 1871 and 1881 censuses.

Also, in the 1871, the census shows that they have a son Ronald, marked as male, age 8. Comparing ages, it's possible that the enumerator second-guessed himself when it came to filling out the form in ink. This is probably Randilla.

Death reg. 030862-10 Galt, Waterloo Co.

Death reg. at Galt, 030862-10 Eliza Buchanan, died November 26, 1910, born 1846, born St. George, died in Galt Hospital, residence Concession Street. Housewife, married. Along with Doctor Thomson, the informant was John Newman. The spaces for Eliza's parents were not filled in. It seems logical that Eliza is the wife of George Buchanan because of the name of the informant, John Newman. John was the son of Randilla Buchanan and Leonard Newman.

The 1901 census shows Eliza's date of birth as August 11, 1842. This is at variance with her year of birth as shown on her death registration, but she herself probably gave her year of birth for the census enumerator, so it's probably correct.
