  • Notes 
    • “St. Johns, Lower Canada,” is exactly how John B. McKillips residence was recorded at the time of his marriage to Lucy Gant, but there are a number of problems with this location. First, Saint John’s, the modern capital of Newfoundland and Labrador, was never part of the Province of Lower Canada. Second, Saint John’s is a tremendous distance from Vermont. It is possible that whomever wrote out the ‘Marriage Groom’ card for John. americanized the town of Saint Jean sur Richelieu which lies between the Vermont-Canada border and Montreal. A birth certificate should be sought. [1, 8]
