    Note: Adam. 1861 census was to be 15 next birthday; 1881 census age 31 ; 1901 census b. 16 July 1847; died in 1908 age 62 = 1846 BUT parents married 15 Aug 1846. Either he was born before his parents were married or it was 1847. William Henry in 1861 was to be 13 next birthday; 1901 census b. 29 Feb 1850 BUT the only leap year for a 29th is 1848; cemetery shows 1848. Other than to change the birth date from the 29th to the 28th and change the year, I would leave it at 7 1/2 months between the two. Your guess is as good as mine.

    Huntley is an historic township originally part of Carleton County in eastern Ontario, Canada.

    Huntley was located in the western part of the county, bordered to the northwest by Fitzroy Township, to the northeast by March Township, to the southwest by Ramsay Township and to the southeast by Goulbourn Township. It includes the communities of Carp, Corkery, Huntley, Manion Corners, and Westwood.

    The township was established in 1841. The first settlers in the area were immigrants from Ireland in the early 19th century. Huntley took its name from Huntly Castle, associated with Charlotte Lennox, Duchess of Richmond, whose husband Charles served as Governor General of British North America from 1818 to 1819.

    In 1974, it was amalgamated with Torbolton and Fitzroy to form West Carleton. In 2001, West Carleton became part of the new city of Ottawa.
