Eliza Jane Anderson - Huron County
« on: Tuesday 19 July 05 14:34 BST (UK) »

Hi there,

I am trying to locate information on

Eliza Jane Anderson.  Her maiden name is Hunter and she died between 1863 and 1869.  Her husband's name was James Anderson and they would of been living in the Goderich area in Huron County.  She had a son Alfred Edward who could of died around the same time, it may have been in childbirth.  Not sure when she was born exactly but could of been between 1840-1845.

Thanks,
Karen

Just thought I would bring this up to the front in case some new information can be found since 2005  Smiley

Unfortunately, it appears that the 1851/2 census records for Goderich no longer exist, which doesn't help. Do you know the denomination of the family?

http://www.huroncounty.ca/library/assess/mlst1842.htm
 - there are 1842 records for Huron which shows three Hunters in the area, John, Robert, and William, all in Tuckersmith.  John and Robert appear to be living by themselves (one in household, one male over 16), whereas William has himself and two women over 16 (possibly a wife and a older daughter?).

Sadly Tuckersmith records are also missing for the 1851/2 census.

The Tuckersmith Hunters may have been Wesleyan Methodists - there are a couple of baptisms for them on the Wesleyan Methodist baptism index, both in Tuckersmith and in other areas of Huron.

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~wjmartin/wm-a_29.htm
 - here there's a baptism in Huron for a son of a James Anderson and Elizabeth, in Stephen Township - born 1856 but bap 1865, Samuel Thomas Anderson.  Another here:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~wjmartin/wm-a_26.htm
 - again, bap 1865, but born in 1861. (James)
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~wjmartin/wm-a_24.htm
- ditto, bap 1865 born 1860 (Alexander), bap 1865 born 1863 (Arthur Russell), born 1858 bap 1865 (Charles).

http://www.rootsweb.com/~onhuron/lookups.htm - there is someone here who has early Wesleyan Methodist marriages for Huron available for lookup.

Do you happen to know if James' middle name is Andrew?

Jorose, sorry I didn't reply, sometimes I don't get notifications (rogers thinks rootschat is a spam and doesn't forward it through  Roll Eyes )

Thanks for those links and information, I will follow it up, I'm not sure what religion they were actually.  Just my luck the census for Goderich don't exist  Cry

Lisa, I'm not sure what James' middle name is, but I know that these Anderson's eventually moved west to Manitoba.

You could always try the "Canada Directory 1851"

I looked in Goderich, but couldn't find them.
