The 1852 entry for Clifford shows an Irish William Dunbar directly below that entry.  Also a grocer.  Didn't notice a family connection to Clifford family trying to look at their history.

If Catherine Stewart did emigrate in 1825 and was born in Ireland she is much older than 15.  The Irish Portal on the New Brunswick Provincial Archives site doesn't list a Catherine Stewart arriving in 1825.  There are a number of Catherine Stewarts marrying in New Brunswick in 1850s and 1860s but nothing to link them to the Clifford surname.  Also can't find a Stewart death linked to her.  I thought the image looked more like 75 to me but I am often mistaken in reading "hard to read" images.

Have you tried this site.
Funeral for Ellen Clifford age 44 w/o P. Clifford at home on Carmanther St. St. Johns May 28, 1853
Sarah 2/0 Patrick Clifford age 27 funeral at same address as above w/o Patrick Clifford  July 10 and 11 1863 newspaper
Do you know who the Catherine Stewart is in the 1852 census you referred to.  She is in the same household as Patrick and Ellen.  She shows the same 1825 immigration year or at least I assume it is an immigration year.  On ancestry her age is transcribed as 15 but it is not clear at all.  Might be 25 or 75??
There is a baptism on ancestry for a John Clifford 9 days old 10 May 1844 s/o ______Clifford and Ellen Keaney.

1921 census for Robert Glover (40) and daughter Margaret (10) shows Adam (32) and wife Ellen (21) Glover directly below Robert.  5 month old Robert belongs to the children of Adam and Ellen.  Hard to read what Robert's marital status is.

The birth registration of Janet Margaret Retson Glover in 1909 shows her mother as Janet Baird Retson.

Same cemetery as sons and husband is an entry for Metta Williamson so whether she died elsewhere she seems to be buried in this cemetery.
Disregard my suggestion in my first post of a different cemetery in Leeds.

You can follow the directions from the Ontario Cemetery Finding Aid to have someone look up the details contained on the headstone for you.
