I am trying to find info on Elizabeth B Major. I would like help in locating Elizbeth's birth and death records. This is what I have so far. She was born abt 1863. I have a copy of her marriage record listed both parents but it states she was born in the United States. It is possible she was visiting family in Michigan or somewhere else, but everyone else in her family was born in Ontario. Mostly in London Township. She married Thomas Howitt son of Thomas Howitt and Mary (Dunn) Howitt. In the 1881 census they were living in Ward 3 of London, Middlesex County, Ontario. Here is is also listed as being born in the USA. Their first child Percy C Howitt was born 8-21-1884 in London Ontario. They had a second child that died 1-17-1887 unknow name. It is possible Elizabeth also died or shorty after because she is no where to be found in 1891. I did find her listed on Cemetry records for Woodland in London, Ontario but I don't have access to the records. Her husband remarried in 1890. In the 1901 census Percy is living with his grandmother Matilda Major in London City Ontario. He is listed as Percy C H with the surname Major, this has had confused for years because I couldn't place him with any of Matilda's child. I did also find Percy in the Detroit Crossing records as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks Tina Smith
