atherine/Amelia/ Millie SHERWOOD was my ggg grandmother. she was the wife of
John SMITH. Her obit in The Ontario Christian Guardian indicates that she
was born at Manlius Square, New York, 20 Aug 1792, and that she married
John "after coming to Canada".She is referred to as CATHERINE.
I don't know if she married John in Nova Scotia, John's place of birth or
Ontario, Canada.

I got her maiden name from the Civil War records of her son John O Smith,
who moved from Ontario Canada to Michigan c1840s, her 1st name is listed as
MILLIE.
Her grandaughters name was AMELIA, but, she was always referred to as
Millie so I am assuming that she was named after her grandmother.
Several queries to various Western NY Historical/Genealogical Societies have
brought little information, other than the heads of household named Sherwood
for early 1800s, so anything I can get concerning her parents, siblings, etc
would be greatfully received.:-) I am willing to share what I have of her
Smith descendants with anyone who is interested. TIA! Jay Smith
