    Notes:

    BIRTH: Also shown as Born Abt 1785

    In the milling and distilling business when married (according to George Matheson in 2000 - see Library\William Campbell Jeffrey Materials\1-Mathieson Letter May 7 2000)

    Census and Assessment records reviewed by Bill Campbell show that George lived on the east half of Lot 16, Conc 3, Otonabee twp. John Graham reports finding that he purchased the NE quarter of that lot registered Jan 28, 1822. in 1825 he bought the SE quarter. In 1855 he bought the NW quarter. The 1861 Agricultuural census shows him on Lot 16 with 150 acres (more than one lot?).

    His will of Mar 8, 1860, gives all his property to sone John Lyal.

    Not found in any cemetery. Speculation he was buried on the farm. John Cowan went to the farm Sept 19, 2019 to inquire about old burials. Current owner said he knew of none, but that there had been one soouth on Villiers Line (adjacent to property) that had been removed to make way for a golf course. John visited Bellmer Winds Resort golf course (1235 Villiers Line) and determined it had been there 11 years but the current owner is not the owner that developed it. Township office reports that no burials were moved from the golf course, however a native burial ground near the lake was left in tact.

    William Campbell speculated that he was buried in St Peters Anglican's burial ground since Bill determined he was married at St Peters. (Bill's letter to John Graham Oct 29, 1990). However John Cowan learned in 2019 at a Lakeshore Genealogical Society meeting that back then marriages were not recognized by the governments of the day unless they were consecreated in the Anglican Church (example of the the power of the 'family compact'). So marriage records at St Peters are not positive evidence he was Anglican. (John's March 2020 question - could this have been St Peters Presbyterian in Peterborough?)

    George married Isabella JEFFREY on 9 Aug 1822 in St Peters Anglican Church, Cobourg, Ontario. Isabella (daughter of William JEFFREY and Mary Edna LYALL) was born on 29 Oct 1801 in Foulden, Scotland; was christened on 13 Dec 1801 in Foulden, Scotland; died on 5 Aug 1885 in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada.
