Does anyone know what happened to Jonathan? Where he went to?
We cannot find him in 1861 Census nor any other records of Tuckersmith, nor in Huron Co, nor in any of the counties of Ontario.
We think he may have been a brother to George and to Thomas Carter, whose lands adjoined Jonathan's.
We do find a Jonathan C. in the Harpurhey Cemetery, d. Apr 1887, age 68, native of Guisborough, England. The Intro. to the Cem. transcriptions says that he was an early Justice of the Peace in mid-nineteenth century. Yet we can't find any Jonathan of hi
age between 1850 and this cemetery record. There were several Jonathan Carters, starting with sons of Thomas and George.
Does anyone know of this Jonathan Carter?

Researching: STURDY
Generation 1
Hugh STURDY b. 1800 in Ballyconnell, County Cavan, Ireland; m. before abt 1827 Elizabeth (SHAW) Sturdy b. 1807 in County Fermanagh Ireland.

HUGH STURDY: (l800 - l884)
Hugh Sturdy emigrated from IRELAND ca 1830 and settled on L30, 31/CMt Goderich Twp. in 1832, receiving his Canada Co deed at a later date. According to family record, he came from Ballyconnell, Co Caven and was one of 7 children of John Sturdy. His brothe
, Richard (1810), emigrated to the USA in 1831.
Hugh married Elizabeth SHAW in IRELAND and they emigrated with at least two of their nine children: John, Oswald, Robert, Anne, Ellen, Margaret, Tom, Sam and Hugh.
In the 1840s Hugh built a rubble stone house, near the Huron highway, using the Irish tradition of clearing the fields, utilizing the stones, and then plastering over the rough exterior surface. The house had no fireplaces in it, so was built to make use
f stove heating. It was a 28' x20' building and has been preserved by the present owners. "The Sturdy house" is considered a landmark in Goderich Twp. today, and is one of the few really early homes still standing.
Hugh farmed the 160 acres until he and Elizabeth retired and their son, Sam, took over the family farm.
The children of Hugh and Elizabeth Sturdy are:
i. JOHN STURDY (1828-?) m. Jane McBRIEN in 1855.
ii. OSWALD STURDY (?-1872) married Anne PROCTOR.
iii. ROBERT STURDY (1831-?) married Prudence KERNIGHAN.

+v. ELLEN STURDY (?-1906) married William PROCTOR in 1859.
vi. MARGARET STURDY married Wm E. JOHNSON in 1873.
vii. THOMAS STURDY married Jane LASHAM.
viii. SAMUEL STURDY (1843-1927) married E. Janet FERRIS (1859-1901) in 1880. Sam inherited the farm on Lot 30, 31 /CMt from Hugh and farmed there until his death. He was a Twp Councillor (1888-1894) and Reeve (1909-11).

If so, what name?: JEWETT
Comments:
I am trying to locate information on my ggg grandfather, Samuel Jewett, who was married to Sophia Lance (or Lanz) about 1843 in Perth County (Brock or Huron District) Ontario. They had one daughter, Cynthia, born Nov. 26, 1844 in Akron, OH, I believe (now
called Middlebutry [Summit County]). Samuel is purported to have died on the Great Lakes (between 1843-1846). Sophia and Cynthia went to Kirtland, OH and then west with the Latter-day Saints. I have no records on Samuel Jewett.

I am interested in info about my great grand father John A. McMillian who was a blacksmith in Usborne, I would appreciate any info, but I have three specific questions: 1) He lived there at the time of his marriage to Jane Cathcart in !864, although the
e marriage showed up in the Perth co. listing of marriages. Can anyone tell me what Pres. churches would be possible for their wedding -- ones that were in Perth co in 1864 but close to Usborne. Where are the registers for those churches? 2) He shows u
on the 1871 index to the Huron co census (usborne twp, district 25; subdist. "C", Div. 4, page 31. That page is not readable on the microfilm available from the LatterDay Saints Library. Is there any better copies in Huron co? If so, who can I contact
and finally 3) He came to Huron Co from Quebec working on the Grand Truck Railway? where can I get info on that project? Thank you.

Comments:
I'm looking for a man who may have moved to Huron County between 1871 and 1881. JOHN VIZARD was granted 100 acres in Peterborough County in 1864. The 1871 census shows him as a 48 yr. old farmer, born in England. He's listed as a stray (has a different
name as head of household). He sold his land in 1876 for $116 and he doesn't show up on the 1881 census in Peterborough County. The Ontario Cemetery Finding Aid shows a John Vizard (plus several other Vizards) burried at Maitland Cemetery in Goderich an
Woodland Cemetery in East Flamborough. Would anyone be able to help me determine whether this is the John VIZARD that originally owned land in Peterborough? Thanks!
