Canada / Re: George Sutherland, b. 1793 Scotland, d. 1863, Weldford, Kent, NB, Canada

Dear All,
It appears that George did marry two widows, first Mary (----) Ferguson, and second Elizabeth (----) Manson, both in Weldford Parish. There does appear to still be a conflict in son James DoB, whether it was in 1821 as his grave marker tells us (Findagrave memorial # 106664150), or whether his DoB was in 1826 as the 1861 census suggests.
I am going to try and use the Sutherland Family Tree at Ancestry, and the Findagrave memorial(s) as a depository of what I know about James and his father George. Hopefully I will eventually determine the rest of George's story, as well as how George arrived in New Brunswick, and where he was eventually buried.
Thanks for your ongoing thoughts and help with this search. Everything counts, and I appreciate your help.
John
