  • Notes 
    • While Aaron and Sophia VEINOT did have a daughter named Phoebe who was born about 1888, it is not certain that this is the Phoebe Louisa VEINOT who marries Samuel Artemus FALKENHAM.

      On the one hand, the Phoebe who marries Samuel lived Mahone Bay (according to her marriage record), while the family of Aaron and Sophia VEINOT lived at Baker's Settlement. Both Aaron and Sophia were born in the vicinity of Maitland and they were married at Mahone Bay, but by 1901 (six years before Phoebe Louisa marries Samuel) they were at Baker's Settlement, where they remained. Also, although Aaron and Sophia's Phoebe is b. 1888, she does not appear with the family in the 1901 Census, raising the possibility that she dies before 1901.

      On the other hand, if she lives to adulthood, she would be the right age, in the right general area, and has no known husband. Also, I know of no other Phoebe VEINOT who could be Samuel's spouse. Finally, and perhaps most convincingly, the Phoebe ERNST (almost certainly her) who is buried 13 Feb 1920, probably at Whynott's Settlement, is given as age 33 at death.

      So, pending further discovery, she is carried here as the spouse of Samuel FALKENHAM. [Bob H]
