Martha Loughead
ID # 8727, (1845-1911)
| Birth | Martha Loughead was born in 1845. |
| Death | She died in 1911. |
| Marriage | She married Thomas Tilt, son of William Tilt and Caroline Cosens. A record for the marriage of Thomas Tilt and Martha Loughead has not been found. It should exist, probably in the county marriage records from the mid 1860s. Certainly, Martha had a connection with the Tilt family, for she appears in the 1861 census in Waterloo Township with the household of Thomas' parents, William and Caroline. Thomas is not present, though he was with them at the time of the 1851 census. Where Martha was in earlier years has not been found. A newspaper notice may yet be found and is, in any event, the best bet. |
| Burial | She was buried at Sec. F, Maitland Cemetery, Goderich, Huron Co.. |
| Note | Martha's year of death, 1911, is found on the family's gravestone in Section F of Maitland Cemetery in Goderich. An Ontario registration of death, however, has not been found. In 1910, the family was residing in Detroit, Wayne County, Michigan. It may be that Martha died in Detroit and her remains were transported from Detroit to Goderich for burial. A record of her death in Michigan, however, has not been found. |
