Elenor Colquhoun in Perth

I am interested in info on Elenor (second?) wife of Alexander Colquhoun. I found her name in the Norwich Monthly Meeting (Fast Quaker) Register here in our archives. She joined the Quakers the same time as 4 of Alexander's younger children. Elizabeth Dow is the only wife previously associated with Alexander Sr. I am researching Alexander's grandson, Albert, who was a prominent minister at Hibbert and Clerk of Pelham Quarterly for a long time and married, 3rd, a local girl, Lydia Cohoe.

Thanks for the marriage info. I am interested in her Harris marriage and any children she brought to the Colquhoun marriage. When did she come to Canada? Why Fullarton Township? Any family info would help paint a picture of her.
