  • Name Elizabeth Henrietta MALLETT

    • Name as enumerated: James Mallatt. Only the head of household is mentioned by name. 8 acres cultivated, 92 uncultivated. Lot 25 1st concession, south 1/2. 2 milch cows, 2 other cattle, property assessed at 40 lbs. 1 male and 1 female over 16. 2 males and 4 females under 16.

    Birth Jan 1837  Wilmot Township, Waterloo County, Ontario, Canada Find all individuals with events at this location  [2] 
    Gender Female 
    Census 25 Mar 1838  Lot 25, Concession 1, Wilmot Township, Waterloo County, Ontario, Canada Find all individuals with events at this location  [3] 
    • Name as enumerated: James Mallet. Only the head of household is mentioned by name. 92 acres uncultivated (looks like) 28 cultivated (doesn't add up). Can't make out the rest. Property assessed at 60 lbs 8 s.
    Census 1839  Lot 25, Concession 1, Wilmot Township, Waterloo County, Ontario, Canada Find all individuals with events at this location  [4] 
    • Name as enumerated: James Mallett. Only the head of household is mentioned by name. Not a part lot. This contradicts the 1837 assessment which says he only has the south 1/2, but substantiates the 1834 assessment which seems to indicate 200 acres. Uncultivated looks like 189 but might be 89 (unless he owns the north half too). Cultivated is 11. 2 oxen and 2 milch cows. 62 lbs 16 s assessment. Family is still 8 people.
    Census 1840  Lot 28, Concession 3, Wilmot Township, Waterloo County, Ontario, Canada Find all individuals with events at this location  [5] 
    • Name as enumerated: James Mallat. Only the head of household is mentioned by name. 3d concession lot 28, south part of lot. 100 acres, all uncultivated, assessed at 20 lbs. The family is still shown as only 8 people. 1 male and female over 16, 2 males under 16, 4 females under 16. So now they have moved to the place we thought they had originally, but William appears not yet to be born, even though his obituary says he was born in 1839. One wonders why after so many years clearing land bit by bit on the other place he chooses to start all over again. Did William Daniels give him a nice bit of cash for the land already cleared, enough incentive to start over? Perhaps James and William had an arrangement all along. We know that they knew each other since 1820 at least. Now too he has 2 teenage sons who can swing an axe and help out.
      Their ages: James - 41, Elizabeth - 35, Frederick - 13, James - 11, Eliza - 10, Ann - 8, Henrietta - 6, Elizabeth - 4.

      William Daniels is shown in the census on Con 1, Lot 25, 75 acres uncultivated, 25 cultivated. This property isn't conveyed to Mr Daniels until 1850. There is an as yet undiscovered connection between James and this William Daniels. James was a witness at William's wedding in Devon.
    Census 1851  Lot 28, Concession 3, Wilmot Township, Waterloo County, Ontario, Canada Find all individuals with events at this location 
    • Only census information available, nothing about the property. This is the first census in which all names of individuals within the household were listed. Eliza was enumerated twice, once at home, and once as a servant in the 2 story brick house of Dugald McLachlan. The family lives in a 1 story frame house. All the children are listed as single. The first four are shown as born in England, all of the rest in Canada. None of the children are listed as attending school.

      Their ages: James - 53, Elizabeth - 46, Frederick - 24, James - 22, Eliza - 21, Ann - 19, Henrietta - 17, Elizabeth - 15, William - 13, Henry - 10, Caroline - 5.

      Thomas - 43, Elizabeth - 35, Margaret - 10, James - 8, Caroline - 6, Ellen - 3, Jane - 1
      180 acres, 2 dwelling houses, 4 barns and stables. 4th concession, lots 31/32, 110 improved, 30 in pasture. 3 horses, 3 colts, 5 cows, 15 sheep, 2 swine. Henry and Ann Mallett (brother and sister) were living on 90 acres of lot 31.

      Thomas - 52, Elizabeth - 43, Margaret - 20, James - 18, Caroline - 16, Ellen - 14, Jane - 10, Robert - 8, Elizabeth - 4. Ann Mallett is living with the family, age 48. No occupation listed.

      1891
      Thomas 62, Elizabeth 52, James 28, Caroline 26, Ellen 25, Jane 21, Robert 18, Elizabeth 12. Margaret has moved away. Ann Mallett no longer lives with the family. Not with Henrietta either. Perhaps she has died. She was alive as late as 1882 when James made up his will, but he didn't die until 1888. What was the dispensation of his will? Was she still alive then?

      1901
      Thomas 72, Elizabeth 64, James 33, Caroline 36, Lilly 24, T.S. Cuttmore 11. T.S. has been adopted. I found the death notice of a Nora Cudmore in the St. James church register, she died Nov 20 1889. This is the same year T.S. was born. My guess is she's his mother. She lives in "Ratho". I know nothing of the father, except that she is described as a "Labourer's wife" (not a widow), so he must have been around at that time. Thomas has lot 32 con 3, 260 acres owned, 2 houses, 5 barns.
