Thanks to Willie Sinclair for the 1881 Canadian Census, I needed to delve further into that country for Scotland born HALCROs, GROUNDWATERs, ISBISTERs and more. Did find one of interest, possibly an Orphir lad born 5 Aug,1804, Edward GROUNDWATER born to Nicol GROUNDWATER and Isabel GROUNDWATER. But there was another Edward born 26 Oct 1810 in Edinburgh to Edward GROUNDWATER and Catherine MILIGAN. Edward GROUNDWATER, male, 76y born Scotland, Presbyterian, Farmer residing New Brunswick, Westmoreland, subdistrict of Moncton. His wife was named Sarah, 64y seen as 'English'. Sarah and the children listed were all born NB [New Brunswick] : Edward 26, Rebecca 24, Henry 23 , Alfred 1, Mary 21 and Sarah 19. Hope ages are right, I can't zoom in to view the page. Have to work on this. Meg Greenwood / Oklahoma USA ========================
