ID # 8655, (1841-1892)
| Birth | Susannah Barnes was born in 1841 at Dumfries Township, Gore District. |
| Marriage | She married Henry Chesney on 10 April 1859 at Brant County. MS248 reel 5, Vol. 1, page 32 Brant County Marriage Register Extracted from a list of marriages solemnized by Bernice Bristol, a minister of the M.E. Church in Canada for the year ending 31st December, A.D. 1859 Henry Chesney, 23, born Ireland, residing Burford. Father Hamilton Chesney. Susannah Barnes, 17, born Dumfries, residing Blenheim. Parents Thomas and Jane Barnes. Witnesses Joseph and Almira Cippie, Burford. On April 10, 1859 The county marriage registers typically record both parental names, including the mother's maiden name. Henry's mother's name isn't entered and Susannah's mother's maiden name isn't entered. The clergyman, Bernice Bristol, was indeed a male. One source shows his given name as Burness, but census information shows it as Bernice. The witnesses are said to be of Burford. This may be correct, but their surname, 'Cippie', has yet to be found in any census information. |
