Susan, E-mail me direct as some of the family are living. I took the information from the book "Danville". Since I was figuring it out as I went there may be errors but you can confirm with Micki. ldpharmtec@netscape.net

I can send you the gedcom or a report in either Ahnentafel or Report form. It will include the notes from the Book. Our nephew is married to A Fowler but we haven't yet tied in Mary to the family. Hopefully in the fall when I go down east for a visit.

Hi, hopefully this gets to you folks. I am researching some of my family lines, and ran across a marriage record ca. Dec. 28th, 1842 of a David Brown of Charleston, Qc and Cleone Shertliff of Hatley, Quebec. The witnesses were WIlliam Perkins and Maria Brown who later married on March 30, 1843 in Shipton, Quebec. I am of the thought though prematurely that perhaps this Maria and David Brown were maybe siblings. But as yet I haven't figured out if David is the son of John Brown and Hepzibah Wallace of Stanstead Quebec. Any thoughts or input would be greatly appreciated of course. SIncerely, Mark Leckie

Hello,
The Fowler family of Melbourne, Quebec is my direct line. Jonathan Fowler Perkins married Rhoda A. Leet and not Rhoda Richardson.

Rhoda Richardson's first husband was Joel Leet married 02 Mar 1804 in Derby, Orleans, VT. They had one son, John Leete b 1813 in Shipton. Her 2nd husband was Jonathan Fowler Perkins married 22 Dec 1820 in Shipton, Richmond, PQ.They had 3 children, John N., Norris and Joel b 1822.
I have the certification of Vital Records for Rhoda and Joel.
Rhoda was born 02 Oct 1781 in Attleborough, Massachusetts.
The Richardson family is on my mother's side.
You can check this with the Leet family and the Richardson family.
Her parents were Jedediah Richardson and Mary Richardson (that is her maiden name-they were 2nd cousins) both from Attlebourough, MA.
I am looking for her brother, Gaby Guy Richardson who married Rachel Olney Nutting. Any help would be appreciated to verify his parents.

Hello,
You are indeed correct about the wife of Jonathan Fowler Perkins. I have a copy of the marriage record and it states that she is the widow of Joel Leet. Rhoda died 1 Dec 1838 and is buried in Claremont Hill Cemetery, Shipton, Quebec. The county for Shipton in 1820 was Buckinghamshire and not Richmond.
I have a copy of the Will for Jonathan and he lists only his son Joel and his grandson William Fowler Perkins. Will is dated 14 Nov 1859.
Joel Perkins married Mary/Polly Richardson, d/o Dexter & Anna (Perkins) Richardson.
I have "Jabez Guy Richardson", bc 1797 in US, married to Rachel Olney Nutting. He is listed as "Jabez" in the 1851 Shipton census. Jabez died 8 May 1853 and Rachel married 2) William Copeland. I do not have parents listed for either of these individuals.
I have done lots of research on most of the early families of Shipton & Melbourne area. I am sending you my email address so we can send messages driectly rather than this way. Hope you will agree to this.
