MS248 reel 10, Vol. 33, page 29 Lincoln County Marriage Register Extracted from a list of marriages solemnized by Rev. James Shaw, a minister of the Canadian Wesleyan Methodist New Connexion Church John Anderson, 25, born and residing South Dumfries. Parents Daniel and Christie. Adaline Pickard, 24, born Niagara, residing St. Catharines. Parents Nicholas and Minerva. Witness Eli Gregory, residence Lincoln. On March 14th, 1861. The handwriting on the above registration is mostly readable. 'Minerva', the name of Adaline's mother, is difficult to read, but seems the best interpretation. The residence of the witness, Eli Gregory, is only shown as Lincoln County. Actually, there is an Eli Gregory in Louth Township of Lincoln County in the 1861 census. He is a farmer and, apparently, a member of the Methodist New Connexion church. |
