    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Henderson/Nova Scotia Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VFB.2ACI/4159.1.1 Message Board Post: Looking for possible ancestors of the following couple- Joseph Henderson living in Nova Scotia, Lakeville,Kings Co. area. No sibling or parental info.known. Joseph married Rebecca Ann Johnson in 1851,May 3rd. St. John's Anglican Church,Canard Nova Scotia. She is the daughter of Daniel and Ruby (Strong)Johnson of Lakeville. Ruby Johnson nee Strong was the daughter of Stephen Strong and Elizabeth Bartow of Connecticut.Joseph Henderson does not appear again but his wife Rebecca is listed as heir to her brothers estate in 1864 and reference is made that she had private council without her husband Joseph present. Later (1871) a child I believe to be theirs is living with Rebecca's sister Mary Fredericks and husband William who later move to Revere Mass. The child-Ruby Catherine Henderson married Leander Lingley of Port Williams Nova Scotia and both are buried here. Their sons moved to Waltham Mass and are buried there. My great grandfather Daniel William Henderson b. 1851 d. 1918 lived in the Wolfville area of Kings Co. Nova Scotia all his life. That is really all the info. I have.
