For Henry Stephen Ferguson (1835–1873)

"Henry Stephen Ferguson" | "6 Sep 1835" | "3 Mar 1873 (aged 37)" | "North Gower Union Cemetery" | "North Gower, Ottawa Municipality, Ontario, Canada"

Memorial page fields quoted in page order: memorial name, birth date, death date, cemetery, cemetery location. The "(aged 37)" is computed by Find a Grave from the two dates it holds and is not an age read off a stone. No grave photograph and no inscription on the memorial, hence quality 1.

For Helen Miller (1824–1911)

HIS WIFE / ELLEN MIL[ ] / DIED S[E]P. 2[ ], 19[ ] / A[G]ED 8[ ]

Her lines on the Samuel & Ellen face (media 247), heavily weathered. ELLEN MIL... is consistent with Helen Miller #5456 (d. 1911); the stone is the only source seen this session giving her a September death and an age in the 80s - too weathered to assert, nothing is changed.

For Alexander James Scobie (1811–1895)

Alexander James "Sandy" Scobie, 1811 Glasgow - 26 Sep 1895 (aged 83-84), Perth, Lanark County, Ontario; Clayton United Church Cemetery, Clayton, Lanark County, Ontario

Headstone transcription. Supersedes the GEDCOM's 18 Jun 1893 at Clayton, which no record supports and which duplicated the death date carried by James T Scobie (6810). NOT ESTABLISHED: a FamilySearch index entry for the Ontario death registration reads 27 Sep 1896 at Lanark; the 1895 / 1896 discrepancy is unresolved.

For Cyrus Scobie (1859–1935)

Cyrus Scobie, 30 Jul 1859 Kars, Ontario - 11 Sep 1935; Elmview Cemetery, Kars. Ottawa Journal funeral notice: 'KARS, Ont., Sept. 20 ...

Also establishes his birthplace as Kars and his occupation as farmer.

Headstone. The memorial manager's own note reads: 'Believe this is incorrect as parents would only be 13 & 14 Years old. William & Barbara had a son James born or baptized 29 Jun 1796 registered in Dailly per ScotlandsPeople.' That 1796 man is the Ayrshire James now separated out as a new person.

For Samuel Scobie (1821–1889)

Samuel Scobie, 1822 Scotland - 1 Nov 1889 (aged 66-67), Kars, Ontario; Elmview Cemetery, Kars, plot L176

Samuel & Ellen face of the monument, read from the photograph (media 247); the face is weathered and soot-stained, [ ] marks illegible characters. The legible fragments are consistent with the tree: Samuel d. 1 Nov 1889 aged ~67, wife Helen (Ellen) Miller d. 1911.

Rebecca Wright Scobie, 1780 Donaghmore, County Tyrone, Ireland - Sep 1853, North Gower, Ontario; Elmview Cemetery, Kars, plot L176; wife of James Scobie

Gives her birthplace as Donaghmore, Co. Tyrone - consistent with the 1851 Canada West census, which recorded her birthplace as Ireland while her husband's was Scotland. Her birth and death place fields are left untouched here; only the burial is added.

For George Alexander Scobie (1851–1929)

George Alexander Scobie (1847 Perth, Lanark County - 11 Aug 1929 Cobden, Renfrew County, Ontario); Cobden Cemetery, Block 3. Son of Alexander James "Sandy" Scobie and Margaret McLellan. He was married first to Mary Jane Gould and second to Jennie Lennox McWade

The Ontario death registration (FamilySearch, digital film 004000422) records George Alexander Scobie, died 11 Aug 1929 aged 82 in Renfrew, son of James Scobie and Margaret Mclellan — independently confirming both the parentage and an 1847 birth, against the tree's 1851.

For George Alexander Scobie (1851–1929)

[A]LEX SCOBIE / DIED / AUG. 1[ ] 1929 / HIS WIFE / JEAN M[C]WADE / DIED / [ ] 19[ ]

Read from the 2008 photograph (media 256), the only legible image of this now-lichened stone; [ ] marks characters too small or weathered to read at the 180px resolution. The day digit could be 11 or 14; the Ontario death registration in citation 37729 reads 11 Aug 1929, so nothing is changed. The stone names him ALEX, the form George Alexander Scobie used.

For Jane Scobie (1836–1922)

Jane Scobie Dunn, 1836 Lanark County, Ontario - 24 Apr 1922 (aged 85-86), Bathurst, Lanark County, Ontario; Elmwood Cemetery, Perth, Lanark County. Jane Scobie was the daughter of Alexander James "Sandy" Scobie and Margaret McLellan. She was married to Robert F. Dunn

NOT ESTABLISHED: the tree recorded her death at Arnprior, Renfrew Co. Find a Grave places it at Bathurst, Lanark Co. and WikiTree Scobie-181 at Perth, Ontario; two independent sources put it in Lanark County, so this proposal moves it there. The precise day 12 Nov 1836 for her birth comes from WikiTree Scobie-181.

For Jane Scobie (1836–1922)

HOUSE OF INDUSTRY DEATHS 1903 - 1935 ... Dunn, R. F. (Mrs.)

Her entry on the collective memorial to the unmarked House of Industry burials, Elmwood Cemetery, Perth (media 259) - the headline as cut, then her line from the second of five columns of names. No dates are on the marker; identity rests on her death at Bathurst, Lanark Co. on 24 Apr 1922 (within the marker's span) and her husband Robert F. Dunn #70779. This is a collective marker over unmarked graves, not a personal headstone.

For George Barney Petrie (1839–1878)

Youngest Son of Andrew. George Barney Petrie was born on August 28, 1839, in New South Wales, his father, Andrew, was 41 and his mother, Mary, was 43. He had six brothers and one sister. He died on June 21, 1878, in Brisbane, Queensland, at the age of 38. The burial register shows his occupation was a builder.

Find a Grave memorial 174828076 (Toowong Cemetery, Brisbane) confirms George Barney Petrie is the son of Andrew Petrie (1798-1872) and Mary Cuthbertson (1796-1855), already recorded as his parents (#55733/#55734): father 41 in 1839 implies b.1798, mother 43 in 1839 implies b.1796 - both match exactly. His true birth year is 1839; 1878 (recorded as his birthDate in the tree) is actually his death year. Adds the previously-missing deathDate/deathPlace (Brisbane, placeId 14, matching his parents' death place). Clears the wrong birthPlaceId (Queensland, a generic placeholder - Queensland did not exist as a colony until 1859) since the record gives New South Wales; no matching NSW state-level place row exists in the tree so left unset rather than invented.

"Robert Jarrott - 21 Apr 1813 to 9 Jan 1879 - Toowong Cemetery, Brisbane, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia - Plot info: Portion 13 Section 4 No 9"

Source of his full birth date. The implied age at death, 65, matches the Brisbane Courier family notice exactly, and the birth year matches his age of 44 on the 1857 Hastings passenger list. Buried in the same plot as his wife.

For Laura Evans (1816–1879)

"Laura Evans Jarrott - 18 Apr 1816 to 25 Apr 1879 - Toowong Cemetery, Brisbane, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia - Plot info: Portion 13 Section 4 No 9"

Same plot as Robert. Implied age at death 63, exactly the age in her Brisbane Courier notice, and consistent with age 41 on the 1857 Hastings list. The memorial is indexed under her maiden surname Evans, independently matching the GRO mother's maiden surname on her son's birth.

For Robert Fraser Dunn (1827–1903)

Robert Fraser Dunn 1827-1903, husband of Jane Scobie

The 1871 census of Lanark, Ontario gives 'Robert Dumn, married, M, 44, Scotland' - so born in Scotland about 1827, consistent with this memorial.

JAMES WRIGHT / 1862 - 1916 / HIS WIFE / ANNIE DUNN / 1860 - 1940

Read from the photograph (media 264). DISCREPANCY left unresolved: the stone's birth year 1860 differs from the tree's 1863 (from the memorial); the 1871 census age implies about 1861. No field is changed. Her husband James Wright (1862-1916) is named on the stone but is not in the tree - reported as a lead.

Her birthplace Carsonby, Carleton Co. is NOT recorded here - no place row exists for it and place creation outside my assigned set is another agent's territory. Her parents Thomas Pettapiece (1831-1867) and Charlotte Moffatt (1838-1898) are likewise left unlinked.
