| 4920 | Biography Margaret was born 21 April 1805 at Govan, Lanarkshire, Scotland. At the age of sixteen, Margaret Cameron arrived in Canada with her family. Her father, Thomas Cameron received a land grant in Dalhousie Township, Lanark County. Margaret married Thomas Lawford at Perth, Ontario in January 1825 and she went to live on Thomas's farm in Beckwith Township, Lanark County where they raised their family. Margaret passed away at Carleton Place, Ontario on 15 June 1891, aged 86. NOTE: Margaret's family name does not appear as CAMERRON in any historical records. Why the original profile manager spelt it this way is incomprehensible and only makes it more confusing and difficult to search. If you know how to correct her family name, please do so.

| 4921 | Biography Posted 20 May 2015 by BarbaraCarsonJardine http://www.borenich.co.uk/Ross_Document/RossFootnote_Alex.html On 24th October 1818, the Richmond Military Settlement Office allocated Concession 8, Lot 27 to John Stewart of Blair Atholl and his family. It is recorded that he had two children under 12 and one child aged between 12 and 17 (presumably John Robertson). Duncan Campbell, the Town Clerk for Beckwith Township, compiled a census of the household heads and their families on 4th June 1820. John Stewart is recorded as having a wife and a female child with him. An unmarried John Robertson also appears in the census. A similar census carried out two years later shows that John and Helen now had a son, in addition to their daughter. Once again an unmarried John Robertson is listed. The Assessor's List compiled by Richard Finlay in 1841 includes John Stewart (C8, L27). In 1852 a John Stewart, farmer on C8, L29 is given as aged 66 years and having a house built of logs with 7 inhabitants. John died intestate in 1854 and the heirs-at-law filed a quit claim deed in favour of their brother John, the youngest son of John Stewart senior. Both John and Helen are buried in the Kennedy Cemetery, Beckwith. His stone reads "John Stewart, native of Perthshire Scotland, died January 31st 1854 aged 67 years". His wife's stone reads "In memory of Helen, wife of John Stewart, died September 7th 1872 aged 82 years". Their daughter, Isabella, married her first cousin, Neil Stewart, whose parents had lived at Balchapel in Borenich, Blair Atholl. The two witnesses were John Scott and James Stewart (Neil's neighbour and uncle). NameBornMarriedDateResidenceDiedIsabellaMar 4 1818, ScotlandNeil StewartMar 13 1840Beckwith, Lanark Co.h.
