HAINES : response
Marriages for at least 2 and possibly 3 children of James and Joan
HAINES are found
in the published marriage records of Grey County. Vital Stats Marriages vol 5 p77 : George
HAINES 27 of Meaford born Canada
son of James and Jean married 15 Oct 1870 Martha
SMITH at Meaford. Vol 21 p 107 : Robert
HAINES 24 of Meaford, born Toronto,
son of James
and Johanna married 19 Nov 1871 Abigail
VANWYKE at Meaford. Grey County Marriage
Register p115 : James P.
HAINES 23 of Meaford born Canada
son of James and "Ruby" married
17 Jul 1865 Mary J.
CARNAHAN. Given the fact that these records are copies of copies of the
original records, is "Ruby" a corruption of "McRoby" which the query says is the surname of
Mrs James HAINES? There is a gravestone in Lakeview Cemetery, Meaford :
HAINES : George
1843-1927, Martha Jane 1850-1901, Margaret 1871-1878, Ella 1873-1878, Mary Ann 1875-
1878, Maurice M. 1897-1899.

KNIGHT : (response)
Can there have been two couples named Thomas and Julia
KNIGHT residing
in the township of South Dumfries?
There are gravestones for such a couple in the Maus or Paris Plains Cemetery,
but they seem to be older than the couple mentioned in the query :
Thomas KNIGHT died 20 Oct 1863 aged 49 yrs
Julia Ann wife of Thomas
McKNIGHT died 21 Oct 1866 aged 66 yrs 4 dys.
It is difficult to reconcile these gravestones with the couple mentioned
in the query, in spite of the names and place.
However in the Brant County Marrriage Register page 211 there is likely
a second marriage for the Julia of the query :
22 Sep 1868 William
McCORMICK 56 of Drumbo
married Julia
KNIGHT 37 of South Dumfries, born Hamilton,
dtr of William and Ann
SMOKE, Alfred
KNIGHT, witness.
The index to the 1871 census for Blenheim twp Oxford co shows Julia
McCORMICK
41, perhaps widowed for a second time.
The details of her first marriage are found on p75 in the Gore District
Marriage Register :
Thomas KNIGHT and Judy
SMOKE married 9 Dec 1847 by Reverend James
VINCENT,
Congregational minister, witnesses: : Jacob C.
CRANE and Charlotte
POWERS.
Also in the Maus Cemetery are gravestones for William
SMUCK 1804-1868
and his wife Ann
SWARTS c1794-1863, presumably the parents of Julis.
SMUCK, from the German
SCHMUCK, was often "Anglicized" into
SMOKE.
