Walter Campbell/Marion Manson and family

[airdlass]

I am interested finding out more about this family:

Walter Campbell, son of William Campbell and Isabella Mackay was born c1821. He married Marion Manson daughter of Angus Manson and Ketty Mackay. Walter and Marion married in 1844.
 
They are in Tongue Sutherland until sometime between 1871 census and 1880 when they are listed in census at Hullet, Huron Centre,Ontario.
 
I have 8 children listed for them all born in Tongue and all listed in 1880 census in Canada.
 
According to Ancestry index there is a Walter Campbell who died in 1881 in Huron but I don't have access to find out any more info.
 
I have more info on some of the children and their families

I have just looked at the 1881 Census for Canada and see that in the list of dependents there is a married son with two children born in Canada, among the eight. Are there other children not included in this 1881 Census?

If you go to
      < automatedgenealogy.com/index.html>

You will be able to see what happened to the family up to 1911.

Hugh married Sarah and had daughters Gertrude, Edith and Hazel. He continued to farm in Huron. Gertrude and Edith were teachers in 1911.

To answer my question, I did find one marriage for a daughter who is not with the parents in 1881. Isabella Campbell, age 27, born Scotland, living at Hullett township, daughter of Walter & Marion M--SON, married Hugh McKay age 25, born Ontario, living at McKillops, son of Angus McKay & Ann Reid. They married at Hullett 25 March 1875. Witnesses: Thomas Staples & Mar Lowrie both of Hullett.

The other marriage I did find was:
Robert Campbell, 28, Stone Mason, born Scotland, son of Walter Campbell & Mary Ann Manson, married Margaret Lowrie, age 24, born in and living in Hullett, daughter of William Lowrie and Jessie Anderson. Witnesses Angus & William Campbell, both of Hullett, 25 March 1875

Hi Beth
Many thanks for the information - that is great.

I note that in 1881 Hugh and Isabella had children, Anna , Walter and Marion and had an elderly Angus McKay living with them at McKillop, Huron Centre. Possibly Hugh's father.

Perhaps the death of Joanna;

I wonder if this is one of yours - or just a coincidence:

Isabella Campbell Mckay

Death date : 12 Apr 1917
 
Age at death : 68 years 6 months
Death place : Grey, Huron, Ontario

Estimated birth year : 1849
Birth place : Grey Twp.

Marital status : Married
 
Father name : Walter Campbell

Mother name : Marion Matthews


I wondered if this is the Isabella Campbell who married Hugh McKay(?)
