• Name	Henry James Pugh
  Born	24 May 1857	Halifax, Nova Scotia   [1]
  Gender	Male
  Census	1881	Dufferin South, Marquette, Manitoba, Canada   [2]
  Henry was listed as being 24 years old, born in Nova Scotia, Roman Catholic, single and a bookkeeper. It appears that he was a boarder of people of various ages and trades. This appears to be the same Henry who was also enumerated at his home in Halifax, Nova Scotia. This may have occurred if the enumeration dates were at different times of the year.
  Died	Nov 1942  [3]
  Buried	Nov 1942	Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada   [3]
  Address: Elmwood Cemetery

  Father	John Pugh,   b. Abt 1821, Ireland ,   d. 23 Sep 1900, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada  (Age ~ 79 years)
  Mother	Alice Saunders,   b. abt. 1826, Ferryland, Newfoundland ,   d. 20 Jan 1892, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada  (Age ~ 66 years)
  Married	19 Apr 1847	Halifax, Nova Scotia   [4]
  Address: St. Mary's RC Basilica
  Census	1871	Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada   [5]
  This family was listed in the 1871 Census of Canada living in Halifax, Nova Scotia. John's occupation is listed as a merchant. John was born in Ireland. While his wife, Alice, was listed as being born in Nova Scotia, several other references indicate that she was born in Newfoundland. In addition to John, his wife and five children,it appears that his wife's nephew, William T. Laurence (of Sarah), 10 years old, born in the US, was living with them. They also had a servant named Mary Fitzgerald.
  Census	1881	Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada   [6]
  This household was much the same as in the 1871 Census, except for some age differences. In particular, John Sr., a merchant, was again listed as being born in Ireland but his age was recorded as 55 years, making him about five years younger that he was per the 1871 Census. His wife, Alice, was listed correctly in this census as being born in Newfoundland. Alice's nephew, William T. Laurence, was no longer living with them and their maid was now a woman named Mary McDonald.

  Family	Jennie Nelson,   b. 7 Jan 1866, Ontario, Canada ,   d. May 1940  (Age 74 years)
  Married	abt. Jan 1891	Manitoba, Canada   [7]
  I suspect that this couple were likely married about Jan 1891. In the records after their marriage, all references to this family indicate that they were Presbyterians, likely Jennie's birth religion.
  Children	1. John Nelson Pugh,   b. 23 Oct 1890, Morden, Pembina Valley, Manitoba, Canada ,   d. 9 May 1937, Oak Bay, British Columbia, Canada  (Age 46 years)   2. Alice Dorothy Pugh,   b.
