Nancy does not appear nor their children. None of this family are registered in the 1881 census. Also I find no record of birth for the two fraser boys in a transcription of Col co. vstats for that period, and no record of death for Peter. Nova Scotia has a site where one can research historical vital stats online. I checked it out but drew a blank on the entire family.
