Jean Tweedie
ID # 7761, (1801-1886)
| Baptism | Jean Tweedie was baptized in November 1801 at Lanarkshire, Scotland. |
| Marriage | She married James Watson on 1 November 1822 at Muirkirk, Ayr, Scotland. The 1861 census in Peel Township, Wellington County, shows James and Jane Watson and tells that they were married in 1822. Add to that, the gravestone for the firstborn of James and Jane, William Watson, which is to be found in Hollen Cemetery, Maryborough Twp., Wellington County, shows him as a native of Muirkirk, Ayr, Scotland, as does his baptism information. Another marriage record exists for a James Watson and Jean Tweedie in Douglas, Lanark, Scotland, dated October of the same year, but with the Muirhead connection reasonably well recorded this seems to be the correct marriage record, which is a transcription as provided by Familysearch: Scotland Marriages, 1561-1910 James Watson and Jean Tweedie Marriage date 01 November, 1822, at Muirkirk, Ayr, Scotland. |
| Death | She died on 19 February 1886 at age 84. |
| Burial | She was buried at Hollen Cemetery, Maryborough Twp., Wellington Co.. |
| Note | A death registration for Jane/Jean has not been found. Her date of death, 19 February, 1886, age 84 years, 3 months, is taken from a transcription of her gravestone in Hollen Cemetery, Maryborough Twp., Wellington Co., as done by the Guelph branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society. A photograph of the gravestone is also provided by Find-a-Grave. |
