      Verify identify: Osborne, Betsey, 1813, Aug 21, page 6622-3.

      . William Osborn appears to have died during the War of 1812 during the capture of the Town of York.

      Further research:
      . Muster Roll of Capt. Abram Nelles' Flank Company, from 24th July to the 24th of August 1812, both days inclusive. - Wm. Osburn
      (Also John Felker & Jacob Swackhammer & Jonathan Teetzel).

      . Abraham Nelles, 4th Regiment, Lincoln Militia, at Engineer Dept. at Forts George & Niagara:
      . July 4, 1814 to July 28, 1814: Sarjants: William Osburn, 7 days.
      [Also Sargents: Roszels, Nathaniel, George & Eldgridge, of Erin Twp., Felker relatives.]

      . William Osborn died at the time of War of 1812. Elizabeth Lawrence Osborn then married Elisha Tarbox. The 1852 Census of Caledon, Ontario records the 7 year old grandson, John Osborn, living with her.

      . Minutes of Town of York, Census records that one male child was born in 1813 into Richard Lawrence's household. Was Elizabeth still living with her parents then?

      . 1837 Toronto Directory
      Osborne, William, land agent, etc., 203 King Street
      . Recorded for further research. If this is William Osborne' son, he would be about 24 years old. - - -
