     #   Notes   Linked to 
    101 I believe that the 1881 census incorrectly lists Michael J. McLaren - I think it was a typo, intended to be Richard J. McLaren, since the dates align so closely with the personal family records, and his age listed on his marriage record.

    Richard was killed in action in WW1. 
    McLaren, Major Richard Juson "Dickie" (I78)
     
    102 I believe the Robert to be John Robert, subsequently known as John R. Source (S57)
     
    103 I don't know whether her name is spelled Dickson or Dixon. Dickson, Janet (I3320)
     
    104 I put the birth year as 1861, as a likely error in the source transcription of a change from 1 to 4. 1864 can't be right because the second William was born in 1862 and the William who lived must have been the second one to be born. Conceivably he could have been born 1860, but not 1859 since his sister Ellen was born that year. Heddle, William (I3378)
     
    105 I suspect that:

    - when widowed, she kept the name Lillias Grant Traill
    - she gave up her baby Kate to be raised by her husband's mother Catharine Parr Traill
    - she remarried in 1881 Arthur Joseph Falkner, who was born 1835 in Hamilton
    - by 1901 she was widowed again, and was a lodger in in Brandon Manitoba under the name Lillias Falkner
    - she had a total of 9 siblings

    All of these records can be found at www.ancestry.com 
    Maclean, Lilias Grant (I46)
     
    106 I suspect they were married as follows: Charles SARLE (or SEARL), md. 9 April, 1787, Patience ROGERS at Falmouth
    Parish Church. 
    Sarle, Charles (I4155)
     
    107 I think he was buried in St. Magnus Cathedral.
    Was Town Clerk of Kirkwall 1788-1801. 
    Heddle, John Of Cletts (I32)
     
    108 I think this is Thomas James Beare who was headmaster of Coleraine from 1915-1927. I'm not 100% sure however. Beare, Thomas (I131)
     
    109 I think this person must have been Gilbert, possibly Cyrus P. Gilbert. *Unknown*, *Unknown* (I3863)
     
    110 I'm confused about the two Frances, one male and one female. The 1861 census of the other frances has him male and born about 1836. Wyatt, Frances (I5659)

    112 If he had survived, wouldn't he be in the 1851 census? But he isn't. McLaren, William (I86)
     
    113 Images and marionettes of her performances are archived in the Canadian Museum of Civilization. I *think* also there are some at the ROM? Heddle, Muriel Moodie "Mimi" (I13)

    116 Isabel, daughter of William Fea of milnfield.

    Made Burgess of Kirkwall, by order of Council, 28 Sept 1706 
    Fea, Isabel (I183)
     
    117 It may be that she married Adam Brown 1826-1926 as his first wife, as indicated by several sources. But I'm not 100% sure yet Evatt, Maria (I4780)
     
    118 It seems astonishing that there could be a Martinus Christoffel Heming at the same time as there is a Martinus Christoffel Henning at roughly the same time and place. It seems very likely that this person is the same as Martinus Christoffel Henning (person 3634) but for now, until I can confirm, I'm leaving it the way Ruvigny did. Heming, Martinus Christoffel (I3690)
     
    119 It seems very likely that this name should Henning rather than Heming, but I'm leaving it the same as Ruvigny wrote, for now. See the note for her father. Heming, Dorothea Maria (I3689)
     
    120 Jack died in a spectacular fashion, by slamming into the Bellevue Square mall in his car. It was determined that he had had a massive heart attack and was dead before the car hit the mall.

    Jack and Jean loved each other in the most complete manner, and she was completely heartbroken for the rest of her life after Jack died. Tears would come to her eyes years later, at any reminder of Jack. 
    Henry, John Frazier ("Jack") (I349)
     
    121 James has a wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Playfair_McMurrich

    He was, among other things, Mayor of Toronto about 1881-1883. 
    McMurrich, James Playfair (I3318)
     
    122 James Moodie, 9th Laird of Melsetter Moodie, Major James , 9th Laird of Melsetter (I34)
     
    123 Jane is the authors of the memoire "Confessions of a Rattlepate". For more, see Sources. Evatt, Jane (I82)
     
    124 Jean's obituary notice, printed in either the Seattle Times or the Seattle PI on 31 July 2005. Found at www.legacy.com

    Jean McLaren Henry passed away peacefully on July 18, 2005 in Bellevue at age 92. Jean was born on a Hood River Oregon in 1912. In 1916 her family moved to Mercer Island. She commuted to Seattle on the Steamer Dawn and the Yesler cable car to attend Garfield High School, graduating in l930. In l934 Jean married Jack Henry (died l997) and moved to Bainbridge Is. As a roving reporter for the Bainbridge Review, she also wrote about Japanese families sent from the island to internment camps during WW II. In l947 the Henrys moved to Bellevue, where they lived 50 years of their 63 years of marriage. Jean attended the UW studying botany, literature and poetry. By the 70's Jean became a noted artist winning many awards at art shows. She was an active member of Women Painters of WA until l997. She loved gardening, and was an active member of the Arboretum Foundation. Her zest for life included activities of hiking, horseback riding, and canoeing with Jack to remote Indian villages off Vancouver Is. Sweet-natured and sociable, she reached out to people of all cultures with a deep and abiding love of life and learning. Jean is survived by daughters Jeannie Chauhan & Elizabeth Henry; grandchildren Manu & Jannat Gargi, Matthew Jeffcott; and great-grandsons Milo & August Pepper. Remembrances are suggested to the Arboretum Foundation 206-325-4510 and the Alzheimer's Assoc. 206-363-5500. 
    McLaren, Jean (I348)
     
    125 Jo Currie that Lachlan's second wife was "Catherine MacQuarrie [or Una Macdonald?]" For now, we will take the first name. Maclean, Catherine (I838)
     
    126 Joan Heddle states that James Heddle was married, but doesn't give the name of his wife, nor does she mention anything about children from this marriage. This record is for his actual wife. *Unknown*, *Unknown* (I3974)
     
    127 Joan Heddle's research indicates that he went to Singapore to work for Eastern Extension Telegraph and died there. The date of death, 25 Sep 1876, coincides with the book History of the Mackenzies. Heddle, James Alexander (I3821)
     
    128 Joan Heddle's research says that he was born 29 Aug 1875 Heddle, Robert Cospatrick Dunbar Moodie (I198)
     
    129 Joan's research is that he emigrated to canada and became an apple farmer in the Okanagan valley, B.C. The 1901 census says that he immigrated in 1884.

    His 1901 census entry says that he was born 26 Apr 1863; his 1911 census entry says that he was born Apr 1864. Perhaps he wanted to feel younger? 
    Heddle, William Traill (I259)

    131 John drowned in the Moira River. Moodie, John Strickland (I3297)
     
    132 John McMurrich was an important figure in Ontario in the mid to late 1800s as a businessman and politician. His biography page is worth reading.

    133 John was the final Heddle to be Laird of Melsetter; he sold the estate to Thomas Middlemore of Hawkesley and retired to his estate at Cletts, South Ronaldsay (I'm guessing that this is the same estate that his great grandfather John Heddle originally owned, but i can't be sure).

    He was Justice of the Peace for the County of Orkney.
