Alexander Stevenson's death in Ontario
« on: Saturday 14 November 09 20:55 UTC (UK) »
I'm hoping someone can help me find a death registration for Alexander Stevenson in Ontario in Dec 1894. 
He was born in Stirlingshire, Scotland in about 1833. 
The family came to Canada in 1834 and settled in Tilbury East Twp., Kent Co, Ontario. 
He married Christina McAllister in 1863, Orford Twp., Kent, ON.
His parents were Alexander and Janet Campbell.
They lived and farmed in Tilbury East from the time they came to Canada.

Many thanks in advance,

Hello,

Alexander and Christina are both buried at Stewart Cemetery East Tilbury Township,Kent County

If you check out the following website you will find a picture of their joint headstone.
www.wrightman.ca/~/dkaufman

Click onto the field of stones at top of page. Go to Kent County Cemeteries East Tilbury Township ,Stewart Cemetery.

I could not with any great certainty make out the exact date of death for Christina and the picture was only taken from one side so could not see Alexanders info.

I have left a message for a person who can probably help with the exact information for Alexander and Christina

so as soon as I hear from him I will pass it onto you.

Regards

Thanks so much for your interest and reply.  This is my husband's great grandfather.  I do have headstone photos and all the other information on this family, I'm just missing Alexander's death registration.    Huh

Kind regards,

Hello,

I heard back from my source in Ontario and he looks after the records for Stewart Cemetery.

Alexander Stevenson died December 18, 1894.

May I  ask where you are located? I have another lead for you , if you could PM me with information on your husband's line and connection to Alexander I will get back to you after talking to the person concerned. He has
a family tree on the Stevenson's.

Will talk soon
