Lemon 1846-1918 1825, per Harriett's death registration, appears to be her year of birth. Certainly, she died in 1918 at Town of Simcoe. Who Daniel Lemon is has not been researched, though he is no doubt a family member. Death reg. 028209-18 Simcoe, Norfolk Co. Harriett Park Smith died on April 27, 1918.
