Elizabeth Kennedy

ID # 9722, (1818-1880)
BaptismElizabeth Kennedy was baptized on 3 May 1818 at Scotland. 
MarriageShe married Andrew Dryden, son of Andrew Dryden and Janet Cairns.
A church record for the marriage of Andrew and Elizabeth might possibly found, but it is unlikely that a public registration will be found. It does seem that the Dryden family came to the Gore District in Upper Canada prior 1842. The only available civil marriage records that exist date from 1842 and not prior. There is evidence aplenty that there was a marriage register for the Gore well prior to 1842, but that at some point it disappeared.
 
DeathShe died on 19 March 1880 at North Dumfries Township, Waterloo Co., at age 61. 
BurialShe was buried on 22 March 1880 at Galt Cemetery, Galt, Waterloo County, Ontario. 
NoteA death registration for Elizabeth has not been found. The following information is taken from Norma Huber's 2001 work: Funeral Notice Cards of Waterloo County, 1851 to 1980, as published by the Waterloo Regional branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society. Elizabeth died on Friday, March 19, 1880. Her funeral was held on Monday, March 22nd. Her age at date of death is shown as 61 years, 10 months, and 16 days. Her date of birth, 3 May, 1818, is calculated from this.
