  	There are no birth or death records for this set of twins but family folklore suggest that they were born and died in Ramsay Township on the newly established homestead and were buried under a Oak tree on the property. It is also possible that youngest daughter at the time of arriving in Canada Elisabeth, born in Scotland in 1820 and died as a young child is also buried in the same location. This was a common practise as there were no cemeteries established at this time.
