    Notes:

    the Caleb Perkins family stone at BSC includes an Abigail Brown, died 19 Feb 1882, age 80 [b.1802]; could this have been a sister of Caleb's?(perkinsresearch.com lists his siblings but Abigail is not one of the names) Her death record gives no indication of family connections and census records for 1851, 1861, 1871 and 1881are not much help; She may have been living with Levi & Jane Fletcher in 1871, but who are they??

    Notes:

    if the OGS record for BSC is correct, Levi was 13 when he fathered Charles!

    OGS says his wife was Amy and they had a son Charles
    jamescobban.net makes no mention of Amy but gives Catherine Aurilla Jarvis as the wife and they had 3 children. I have listed her as a second spouse.

  13. 16.  Abigail Perkins Descendancy chart to this point (3.Caleb2, 1.Roger1) was born in 1856; died in Sep 1890 in Stockton, California.

    Notes:

    The Toronto Daily Mail, Sept 8, 1890 reports the death of Mrs. A. Comfort, formerly of Westminster township, daughter of the late Caleb Perkins, in Stockton, California, age 34; it is assumed this is Abigail
    However, jamescobban. net says Abigail married William Crawford and sites Marriage Register, CA, Ontario. It also says she is buried at BSC and sites 1871 Census of Canada, page: dist 9 Middlesex West, subdist A. Westminster, div 2 page 73

    Is she buried at BSC??

    Notes:

    Perkins/Gardner/Brown
    -a livery stable keeper

    jamescobban.net says his middle name was Cander. There was a Roger Perkins, b. 1869 Derby, CT who married Betsy Candee. Is this where the name came from? But that Roger and Betsy died in 1834 in the US and jamescobban.net does not link our Perkins with this Roger and Betsy.

    Freeman married Mary McDonnell* on 17 Nov 1886 in Lambeth, Ont.. Mary (daughter of Peter McDonnell and Ellen Griffith*) was born in 1863; died in 1942. [Group Sheet]
