I don't have any connection to the family, but I do see a marriage record for Matilda and James dated 12 Dec 1871 in Simcoe County. It lists her age as 23, her residence as Collingwood Tp, and her place of birth as Reach Tp. Her parents are John L. G. and Mary Ann. James is 36, a resident of Collingwood, born in Ireland. His parents are George and Margaret. Married in Collingwood, bride and groom both Episopalian, ceremony by Rev. Fras. Bevy?
