• Notes

  Married: by Rev. William Bell, First Presbyterian Church, Perth Ontario. A working copy of notes by J.R. Ernest Miller suggest that "the bride ran". This  would have been based on William Bell papers found in the vault at St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church in Perth, ON and would possibly now be located at the Presbyterian Church of Canada archives. Another possibility would be the Bell diaries, part of the Queen's University archival holdings in Kingston, ON.
