Elizabeth Setter, the daughter of George and Isabella, married John Norquay. The marriage date you list for Isab...

Re: JOSEPH FINLAYSON (1830-1901)
Thanks for this page! After reading it, I realized that this Joseph Finlayson that I've been researching as part of the Davis-Hodgson family is the same Joseph Finlayson who I encountered while reading/writing my Master's thesis on the 1885 Rebellion.
