• Notes

  John George Watson was apparently in the British military in 1901, since [Ireland-1901b1] notes that he was enumerated on “Form H, R. I. C. Barracks, Rathmelton” (“Royal Infantry Company”?). Unfortunately, Form H of the _Census of Ireland, 1901_ is not available through the national archives. [1, 5] John George Watson and his family’s ultimate destination, as listed in [LaAC-1908a], is “Huntsville, Ont.” which is consistent with their presence in Huntsville for the remainder of their lives. [4] The birthdate for John George Watson is calculated from the notation of his ‘Age at Death’, “72 years, 11 months, 11 days” in [AoO-1934a]. The birth year, as listed in that source, is 1862. [8] John George Watson’s parents were John and Mary Ann (White) Watson, both Irish immigrants to Canada. [8]
