Notes

Note

McAusline James (from PEIGS Newsletter #52, p.10) Immigrated to P.E.I. c.1815 from northern Ireland with his brothers Samuel (m. Flora Ramsay), Archibald, and John.

Samuel m. Flora Ramsay (b. 1814), daughter of John Ramsay and Margaret Penman.

Samuel McAusland of Lot 13 (B) and Flora Ramsay (S) of the same lot were married by license this 9th day of November 1830 by A. Wiggins in the Richmond Parish of the Church of England. Present were John and Angus Ramsay.

In 1837, John Ramsay farmer of Lot 13 transferred land to his son-in-law Samuel McAusland of the same place.

Samuel was not in the 1841 census and died before the 1861 census, which leaves few contemporary records about him. Descendants gave their background as Irish on census forms.

Name appeared with various spellings, earlier records were under McAuslin, McAusling, etc.

At Lot 12, a few days since, Mr. Samuel McAuslin, aged 56 years. Hazards Gazette March 3 1855

Samuel did not leave a will. Flora petitioned the court to allow her to administer the estate. Children listed in the petition were John, 22, James, 20, Samuel 17, Archibald, 14, William 8, Donald 5, Henry Crawford, 2 and Jane, 23.
