    Notes:

    During the 1901 Census of Canada, John and Barbara and three children, A. Christie (8 Mar 1886), D. John (8 Jun 1888), and Voilet (16 May 1892) on PEI. He is noted as a Presbyterian, as is the rest of his family. It says he lived in DISTRICT NUMBER: 136; SUB-DISTRICT: Lot (township/canton) 21; SUB-DISTRICT NUMBER: C-1. His birth is noted as being 15 Apr 1849. However, it is assumed the census taker wrote this incorrectly as his baptism record say 1845. Two doors down there is a John Corbett born in 1844, his wife Sarah b. 4 Apr 1851 and 2 children - 19 yo A. Hector and 17 yo A. Margaret. Could these be Barbara's brother and his family?

    In the 1910 US Census, John, Barbara and their two adult sons Hector and John D. were living on North Hampton Rd. in Greenland, NH. John A. was listed as a farm manager, able to read but not write. He was born in PEI, but his father was born in Scotland. His two sons were listed as farm laborers. They were renting. The immigration year for all of them was listed as 1908, with the exception of Hector who was listed as 1906. All four of these family members are buried in the South Granville Presbyterian Cemetery on PEI and we know that is where John and Barbara died on Christmas Day 1914, so they must have returned to PEI sometime between 1910 and 1914. Their daughter Annie was married to Harry DeRochemont of Newington. Annie and her baby died in 1906, but their other grandchildren remained in Newington, so clearly they had some ties to the New Hampshire seacoast region.

    it is important to keep in view that the Scots became the largest ethnic group on the island and that PEI was to become the most Scottish province in Canada. Moreover, as Kennedy has suggested, over 80% of the Scots on PEI were from the Highlands and Islands of Scotland


    Birth:
    The 1901 Census reports his birth date as 15 Apr 1849. However, his actual "baptism" date, which many in PEI seem to report as a birth date I've observed, was 15 Apr 1845. Either the census taker heard it wrong or wrote it wrong.

    Name:
