So
the search was on. . .where was Elizabeth? Well, as luck would have
it, I found her living back in Seymour, Ontario where the family moved
from. She was living with her aunt, uncle and grandmother as shown here in the 1871 Seymour Twp. census. The pieces
are starting to fit together!
By this time, I knew that Hector's mom was Agnes (Hunter) Curling. My great grandmother had a wonderful scrapbook full of clues about this family. One page had several clippings about Dinwoodies. I didn't know the full significance of those clippings until I found this census. Upon further research, I learned that both of Hector's sisters married Dinwoodie brothers.
