PB, I agree.  She's not buried with her parents and brothers.

Annie married a Linton, so not her. Let me check the Jones.

Found William's obit from 1947 listing his daughters as:
Mrs. Frank Pennock, Green River
Mrs. Oscar McNeely, Mt. Dennis
Mrs. Russell Morden, Ballantrae
Mrs. Jack Simons, Peterboro
Mrs. Bert Jones, Green River

So Linton is now gone.... a remarriage to McNeely?

In 1963 there is a newspaper item of the 50th anniversary of Russel and Mary (Sheperdson) Morden.
It states she has two sisters, Emily Pennock, Green River and Mrs. Jack Simmon, Peterboro.  I assume this means Margaret is deceased by 1963.

Looks like it was Ethel who married Oscar....

Added: Annie Linton died in 1923. So I think that would leave Bert Jones as the husband of Margaret, as has been discussed earlier.
We search for information but it is up to the thread owner to verify that it is correct.

There must be an "oops" with either the Toronto Star or the person informing them....

In the writeup for Mary's 50th anniversary, the daughter quoted above was listed as Mrs. Ted Lithgow of Seaforth, so I assumed she remarried.  I found her marriage to Lithgow at Anc. but not on familysearch, where she went by Reta May, not Alfreda, but her parents are correct (Russel Morden and Mary Shepherdson).  On the marriage, Ted is actually Edward Cecil Lithgow.
Their graves are here: https://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=144375324
She is back to Alfreda, but now Ted (Edward)  is Frederick?  ??? ???

Edit:  Figured out the Frederick/Edward issue.  Both his first name AND birth date were amended in 1972, a year before he died...
