979 Is believed to have emigrated to Twillingate around 1767. He may be the same James ANSTEY who was noted as a nephew of Andrew MILLER of Poole on 2 April 1767 (re Andrew's will). Andrew also had connections to Newfoundland, at Bonavista. Any information would be very appreciated.

980 Is it an accident that her name is so close to her sister's Amelia Ann?

Could they be the same person?

983 Israel was a twin of his brother, Esau. Source: Diary of RnRowsell Entry for April 24, 1941. He was visiting Israel Rowsell, son of Mark Rowsell, and this was revealed in the conversation.

William A. Rowsell stated that Israel's headstone reads: "Away from Friends and Kindred All, I Calmly Await My Call When that Call Comes I hope to with Christ in Endless Felicity."

"In Memory of Isreal Rowsell who departed this life 13th Aug 1863 aged 21 years. Far from friends and relations, I am left alone to wait my call. When that call comes I hope to see all my friends in endless glory." Inscription from a headstone at Dumplin Island, Labrador taken from "THEM DAYS" Vol. 23 no.4 Summer 1998.

Diary of AW Rowsell, entry for Sept 28th 1915 : "We were ashore on Dumplin Island. Saw poor Uncle Israel Rowsell's grave who died here in the summer of 1863, Aug 13th. Aged 21 years."

984 It is odd that Stephen has a middle name which matches his wife's surname. Pike, Stephen Bemister (I1046)
 
985 It is thought that Elfreda left Antigua when Aliston was a boy, leaving him to be reaised by his grandmother. She married again in New York to a Jewish man and have at least two children with him. It is thus logical that her birth surname is not Dublin. But no idea what it was.

 
Dublin, Elfrieda (I21)
 
986 It may be that her daughter Elizabeth, father Richard Ash, was born out of wedlock which might explain why her full name was Elizabeth Ash Jestican. It also explains why Elizabeth's marriage to William Spriggs (below) occurred before the death of Richard Ash.

A second? marriage also to William Spriggs on 12 Nov 1827 in Heart's Content, Nfld.

 
Jestican, Elizabeth (I1732)
 
987 It's noted in the Strong Family Bible that George and Fred were twins, but no birth date is given. If they were twins then there is a conflict with their estimated birth dates. George died on 6 May 1896, supposedly at age 69 (giving an estimated birth date of 1827). According to the 1900 US Census for Gloucester Fred was born in March 1829.

They were from Jenkins Cove (Twillingate). Lovell's 1871 Directory for Twillingate lists George Strong, Fisherman.

The probate record for a George Strong of Twillingate listed in the Acts Book, volume 6, folio 127, probated in 1907 mentions George James Strong of St. John's. I believe this refers to his son James George Thomas Strong.

Mother - In Loving Memory of Rachel WILTON who departed this life October ??, 1883 age 57 years. Father - In loving memory of Solomon WILTON who departed this life April 19, 1897, age 79 years.

This headstone would seem to indicate that Solomon was born in 1816 (if he was 79 at death in 1897)

Sarah Jane at Moretons Harbour. He was listed as a Methodist and a

998 JM states age at death was 16, but cannot be, given the dates of birth and death.

From the Aug 4, 1923 issue of the Twillingate SUN:
On Sunday last death visited the home of Mr. & Mrs. Robert ANSTEY Back Harbor and took away their daughter Dora who had been suffering with appendicitis. She was 16 years of age. An operation was performed on Saturday last by Doctors Wood and parsons and although all possible was done she became weaker and passed away. Funeral was on Tuesday at the Church of England, Rev. H. GILBERT performed the burial rites and burial took place at the Cemetery at Sneilens Cove. To the bereaved parents and family the SUN extends sympathy. 
Anstey, Dora Agnes (I2421)
