Research Notes

Original Details:
^[2] find a grave site has the last digit for the birth year flipped 1819 instead of 1816. Image shows death date and age at death. With common math it reveals a birth year of 1816.
For Creating Additional Family Profiles ^[4] Death Record for Catherine Heydon shows Mary Ann as her mother and confirms Ross Myrick as the father. Lots of detail to create this daughter profile.

^[7] provides info on Mary's parents birth locations, her son-in-laws name, age, province of birth, and profession. Will also help with creating grandchilren's profile as it includes ages and birth province as well.
