Here is the 1881 census listing that is being referenced: 1881 census, Harbour au Boucher, Antigonish Co., Nova Scotia; [Source online transcription of Family History Library Film: 1375812; NA Film No: C-13176; District 21; Sub-district J; Page No. 61; Household No. 249+], all listed as CARPENTER; ethnic origin: French; Roman Catholic: - Ann, widow, female, age 82 [implies b. 1799], birthplace: Prince Edward Island - Pascal, married, male, age 38 [implies b. 1843], birthplace: Nova Scotia; occupation: Farmer - Margaret, married, female, age 35 [implies b. 1846], birthplace: Nova Scotia [Marguerite BRIAND] - Mary Virginna, female, age 2 [implies b. 1879], birthplace: Nova Scotia - Louis, married, male, age 80 [implies b. 1801], birthplace: Nova Scotia - Maria, married, female, age 76 [implies b. 1805], birthplace: Nova Scotia [Marine MOMBOURQUETTE, mother of Pascal] In the listing above Ann CARPENTER is listed as a widow who had been born in PEI. One possibility is that this Ann is aka Veronique BOURG, widow of Elie CHARPENTIER. Is anyone aware of other candidates for the identity of this widow Ann?
