• Notes

  . 1851 Census, Charlotteville, Norfolk co., Age 30, Born 1821. . 1870 Feb 3 - Charlotteville Singular Death - A death occurred in this township on Sunday last, under strange circumstances. Miss P. M. Tisdale, daughter of Mr. Joseph Tisdale, on Monday or Tuesday of last week, visited Mr. Nevett's residence, & went across his farm to Mr. Wm. McCall's, a short distance from Mr. N.'s. It is supposed that she reached Mr. McCall's, but finding no one at home she started to return to Mr. Nevett's, & got as far as the road. Shortly afterward some of Mr. McCall's family passed along the road & noticed her standing against the fence as if about to climb over it. They spoke to her, but received no answer. They went up to her, &, finding that she was insensible, assisted her into the buggy & conveyed her to their residence, where she was kindly cared for until her death, which occurred on Sunday. She remained insensible during the whole time, so it is impossible to ascertain the cause of her death. It is supposed, however, that in crossing the fields she slipped upon ice & fell with such force upon her head as to render her insensible & ultimately cause her death.
