NB although Janet's mother is shown as Elizabeth I believe this is actually Isabella Berry - the witness looks to be her sister, and Janet's death cert. comes closer to my version of reality by showing her mother as Isabella BENNER. Henderson-2297 07:02, 3 April 2021 (UTC)

Research notes

Janet's mother's name

I have decided that the Janet daughter of John Henderson and Isabella Bennie / Berry ++ is one and the same Janet who married Adam Turnbull in Hamilton Ontario, despite the marriage cert. showing her mother as Elizabeth.
Isabella and Elizabeth are known to be used interchangeably at times in Scotland
She's in the right place / time and disappears from view as Janet Henderson in Canadian records
the Annie Henderson witnessing the marriage is likely to be Janet's sister
her death cert. switches back to an Isabella for her mother, albeit recording the surname as BENNER - closer if not yet a full cigar :) Henderson-2297 08:04, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
