Subject: [STJOHN] Brown, Cooper, Donnelly 1881 Musquash Census
Date: Wed, 20 Feb 2002 13:14:09 -0400

Looking for information on William Alexander Brown who may have lived with
a Donnelly family (James 48 & Edith 25). Their names appeared in the 1881
census for Musquash. He was 13 years of age at the time of the census. I
suspect he was an orphan. Also looking for information on the Cooper
family that also appeared in the 1881 census for Musquash (Mary Jane
Cooper, widow age 45 & children Maria Agnes Cooper age 6 & William H.
Cooper age 8). William Brown eventually married Maria Cooper. I would
like to know if the 13 year old William Brown from Musquash was the same
William Brown who married Maria Cooper. According to the 1901 census for
Lancaster, William was in fact 7 years older than Maria. Also the 13 year
old William in the 1881 census is 7 years older than Maria.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
