I took a look at ancestry for you. I couldn't find anything for your girls, other then a family tree submission under the One World Tree at Ancestry that could be a possible match. I think that database is free. There's a Tillie McLeod b. 1871 in Madoc, Hastings Co. (parents William McLeod & Mary A. Shaw) She married Robert Edward Nuttall (b.1868 South Lake, Leeds, Ontario, Canada ) on 30 Oct 1900 in Madoc, Hastings, Ontario, Canada. Then I found this couple in the 1901 Census (www.automatedgenealogy.com) in Algoma Ontario. The surname was spelled Nuttal. Hope this helps, Natalie

Thank you Natalie, Comparing your message to Marg McFarlane I believe this is the family I am looking for. Thank you very much. I will have to check out One World Tree as see what I can find there.

Brown Cause: Tuberculosis, 4 years Reg. #024164 The Ontario Cemetery Finding Aid lists Mary Ann Collinge, the mother, I assume, and Albert Collinge as being buried in Lakeview Cemetery, Madoc, Hastings County. Since the father, Richard's death reg also says buried in Madoc, perhaps the stone was too difficult to read to be transcribed. Marg in Sunny Alberta
