John McNaught death circa 1873

[KarenM]

Is John McNaught's wife Margaret Jackson?

John married Sarah Kirkpatrick 1834 in Dumfries-shire, Scotland and , as yet, I've no idea when she died. However, John remarried I believe about 1852 to a Margaret Campbell (at least that's the surname I've recorded) although checking my records I don't appear to have a reference. Their children were Sarah Marion, Henry and Joseph. There was also James b.1849, now I'm not sure if he was Sarah's last child or possibly born out of wedlock to Margaret Campbell/Jackson! It would appear he was born about the same time as John junior.

There is a death registration for Sarah Mary Ann McNaught, born Brantford March 19, 1855.  Parents are John McNaught and Margaret Jackson both born Scotland.  Sarah died at the age of 73 in Mitchell, Ontario County of Perth and is listed as single.

Mrs. H.A. McNaught, sister in law is the informant (HA looks like Henry Alexander)

This looks interesting as Henry was her brothers name but I've no note of his being also an Alexander. Mitchell does feature elsewhere in my research and McNaught is not the most common of names so it all looks promising. I just wish I knew where I got the surname Campbell from.
Thanks again

PS if you need any help from Central, Tayside, Fife Scotland let me know as I'd like to reciprocate.

The offer extended to Karen applies equally to you Janice as I'm still trawling through the links you sent. Some information I already had, which has been confirmed but others were totally new to me. It's interesting to note that although David was John's eldest son he did have an elder daughter who never made it to Canada. However, she did go to Australia with Johns' youngest brother David. A somewhat enterprising family!

Janice, just saw the 1871 entry which shows more children then mentioned...

[J.J.]

Think there may have been another daughter? Just in case mother's name was
spelled wrong, as was in Mitchell, Perth, Ont.

Matilda Mcpherson - widow- born 1848 Ont. - death March 29, 1915
Mitchell, Perth, Ontario / age 67

Matilda is "Natilda" in 1881 census with husband Thomas in Logan, Perth North, Ont.

Hmmmm....might there be another mother in the mix as well?

John Mcnaught - born 1850
death - March 18 1918 - Logan, perth, Ont.
Parents - John McNaught & Helen Spry.. (Note: Not accurate ).


In 1881 the only John, scottish descent born circa 1850 is in Grey, Huron Centre, Ont.
with wife  Ellen & three children...living right next to" Henery" sister Sarah & widow Margaret...
    

[J.J.]

No that was his wife's maiden name....Ellen Spry, as here is the marriage of
daughter Maud in 1902...so that was a major error...
