Notes
Marriage
CONFUSION***Ontario Marriage Notices, Chrisrtian Guardian, 1855-1856
14 March 1855
On 21st ult. in Chatham, Joseph Whitesell of Howard and Mary Ann Sweet, of Orford.
(Rev. J. Hutchinson)
Marriage date poss 21 Feb. 1855
This incicates she was married to Joseph Whitesell during Peters lifetime and she was not his widow due to his death date of 1866. She must have married Peter I. Traxler after her wedding date, 1855. She could not have been his first wife as per notes. This means Eliz Gregory Traxler must be the mother of his children born at least before 1856 and his first wife as indicated by the marriage date. Infact it is not possible to determine what Mary A Sweet's marrieage date to Peter is, and which child born after 1856 is Eliza's or Marys. Eliz must have died after 1855 because a child was born in 1855 and Mary Sweet was married to Joseph Whietsell in 1855. Also Mary Ann Sweet's husband must have died or divorced bef 1861. for her to be listed as married to Peter I. Traxler.
NOTE: I am listing all children to Eliza because at this time I cannot determine which children are whos after 1855.
