Blight and Minnie Williams (apparently) both of Toronto. On May 11th, 1889, at Toronto, by Manly Bevan (or similar). The handwriting for this registration is poor. It's difficult to discern Sarah's middle name. However, her death registration makes it clear enough it was Emaline. |

Date of birth July 2, 1856. Age 75 yrs., 2 mos., days illegible. Occupation of deceased illegible. At place of death 6 years. In province illegible years. In U.S. 25 years. Andrew Anderson and Elizabeth Campton (or Compton), both born Ireland. Physician (who signed the form) J. A. McNiven of Acton. Informant Mrs. E. F. Collier of Acton, niece. Burial Acton Sept. 26, 1931. Thomas is buried in Plot 1210, Fairview Cemetery, Acton, (transcription page 2-139). The handwriting on this form is minimally readable. The Halton and Peel Counties branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society has done a transcription of Fairview Cemetery in Acton, where Thomas is buried. There are many Andersons buried in this cemetery, most, in all probability, not related. He is, however, buried with the Colliers, one of whom is no doubt his niece as shown above. By which of Thomas' siblings she is his niece is yet to be determined. The death registration does have a point of interest in which it records his stay in the United States. More research is needed, but his wife (name yet to be ascertained) is likely buried there. |
