MS248 reel 17, Vol. 82, page 168 Wentworth County Marriage Register Extracted from a list of marriages solemnized by Rev. George Hunt of the Methodist Episcopal Church for the year 1866 Mr. Stephen Henderson, 27, born New York State, residing 'Berford' (Burford). Parents James and Elizabeth Henderson. Mary Dawdy, 19, born and residing Ancaster. Parents Jeremiah and Sarah Dawdy. Witnesses Martin Smith and Nancy Smith, both of Glanford. On April 17, 1866. Mary's first name is written in a manner that is initially difficult to interpret, but, comparing the registration for she and Stephen in the 1871 census in Burford, it's reasonable to say that Mary Henderson is the married name for Mary Dawdy. Also, their apparent first born is Jeremiah, evidently named after Mary's father. |
