    Default Need a death date for Leah Belle Butler

    William Richard Butler-1848-1931
    married Mary South-1851-1930
    Leah is the daughter of William and Mary

    So far all I could find on her was one census from 1901.

    Leah Belle Butler-March 11 1890

    No luck on find a grave for her and on the OCFA site only shows what cemetery she is buried in and they don't have dates on that site. She is buried in Mountview Cemetery in Cambridge Ontario. I am wondering if she died young hence why I can't find more info on her.

    Mistranscription of the surname in 1891 census on ancestry. On both the 1891 and 1901 censuses her father is down as Richard without the name William or the initial W as a possible middle name. Not that this helps with finding her after 1901.

    1911 and another mistranscription as Butter and take a look at Leah's name this time. On the original image it is written as Lea Bell
    Brant, South Dumfries
    Richard Butter 62
    Mary Ann Butter 60
    Leo Bell Butter 21 daughter occupation ??maker? shop

    Richard and Mary are still in Brant Dumfries South in 1921 but Leah is not with them. S you are looking for a death or marriage after 1911 for Leah Belle and I have searched for a Lea* bel* no surname but no identifying which of the 197 results could be her in the 1921 census and of course she could be hiding under a completely 'gaga' transcription of her name.
