Research Notes: Husband - John Burrows
From FindaGrave.com:
"From the 1870 census John Burrows was born about 1829 in Ireland and emigrated to the United States at age 19. A family letter indicates he was born in Scotland. After emigrating, John Burrows found employment as a farm hand with the Weyerhauser lumber people in Pennsylvania. It is there that he met his future wife, Martha Downey, who was working as a house maid for the same company. John and Martha were married in Philadelphia in 1854. They came west to Mercer County, Illinois while their son, Samuel, was just a babe.
Unto this union seven children were born: Samuel Frank; Margaret born about 1858; Martha about 1862; Jean or Jane about 1864; Andrew about 1868; Sophrenia born May 1870; and Leah Rebecca born December 16, 1872."
Research Notes: Wife - Martha Downey
From FindaGrave.com:
"Martha Downey emigrated from Ireland to the United States in 1850 at the age of 19 according to the 1900 census. She met her future husband, John Burrows, while working as a house maid for the Weyerhauser lumber people. They were married in Philadelphia in 1854."
There are at least two individuals with the surname Downey in the Oak Ridge Cemetery (Mercer County, Illinois, who may be Martha's siblings. Possibilities include:
Andrew Downey b. March 1828, County Donegal, Ireland; d. 22 Dec. 1890 Illinois.
John Downey b. 17 Dec. 1836, Ireland; d. 4 Nov 1889, Illinois.

Note from DeWayne B. Johnson on family tree from around 1998:
"(DBJ's sister, Dorothy Peters, was under the impression that Margaret was a cousin of Samuel Clemens' [Mark Twain's mother or one of his sisters.]
---------
Grandson DeWayne B. Johnson wrote about Grandmother Talbot (Margaret Burrows Talbot) thus on 8/17/1986:
"My vague recollection, substantiated by I know not what, is that on one occasion when my family was visiting the ranch [in North Platte, Nebraska] Grandmother Talbot and I got mired in quick sand and she held me aloft as we sank into the gooey substance. needless to say, we were rescued, or I wouldn't be able to write this way to you today.
"Folklore has it also that she was gifted by remarkable superhuman strength on an occasion when a wagon collapsed on one of her sons and she lifted the entire load by the wagon axle until he could be pulled free. An impossible task under ordinary circumstances.
"I remember the smells of her farm kitchen and helping with the churning of butter. We trimmed the wicks of the kerosene lanterns. A small kitchen garden seemed always to be producing some good things to eat. I don't remember her passing."
---------
Research Notes: Wife - Margaret Burrows
From FamilySearch.org
1880 U.S. census, born in Illinois; parents born in Ireland.
Based on that 1880 information, she is probably the 12-year-old Margaret Burrows who is in the 1870 census in Duncan, Mercer, Illinois with her parents and siblings. If that is the case, her parents were John and Martha Burrows, both born in Ireland.

1st husband of Sarah Wood
From Wikipedia - South Glengarry, Ontario :
South Glengarry is a township in eastern Ontario , Canada on the St. Lawrence River in the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry .
The township was created on January 1 , 1998 by amalgamating the townships of Charlottenburgh and Lancaster with the independent village of Lancaster.
History
Charlottenburgh and Lancaster were two of the original eight "Royal Townships" established along the Saint Lawrence River in Upper Canada in the 1780s. This area was first settled by United Empire Loyalists . The development of this area was encouraged by Sir John Johnson , a wealthy landowner loyal to Britain , who was forced to abandon his land holdings in New York State during the American Revolution .
Johnson built a house in Williamstown near the end of the 18th century, The Manor House, which is now a Canadian National Historic Site . A grist mill and saw mill, now gone, were also built on the same location. Williamstown also contains the oldest log house in Ontario which was built in 1784.

"A List of Taxables in St. Thomas Parish in the Year 1763
The Tax List of 1763 for St. Thomas Parish was found by William N. Wilkins in 1959 in the Harford County Historical records on loan at the Maryland Historical Society. (Harford County was part of Baltimore County until 1773.) ... This 1763 tax ledger shows the names of the various parties against whom charges were made for apparent church and county support and other sundry charges... The notation 'run' meant that the person named had left before paying his full charges.

"JOPPA COURTHOUSE PETITION OF 1768
"The petitions for and against the removal of the county seat of Baltimore County from Joppa to Baltimore Town in 1768 are discussed at length in the Archives of Maryland, Vol. 61 (Appendix). Notices were posted in January, 1768 at the door of the courthouse in Joppa, at the church door of St. Paul's Parish, at the church door of St. Thomas' Parish, at the church door of St. John's Parish, at the church door of St. George's Parish, at the door of the chapel of St. George's Parish, at the door of the chapel of St. John's Parish, and at the house called St. Thomas' Chapel in St. Thomas' Parish, by Absalom Butler and sworn to before the Honorable Benjamin Rogers. Notices were printed in English and German. Tabulations indicate that 2,271 voted for the removal of the courthouse, and 901 voted against it. (It should be noted that some signatures are missing due to the disintegration of the paper, and there also appears to be some who signed more than once.) Five years later, Harford County separated from Baltimore County and set up its court house at Bush (Harford Town) in 1774 and at Bel Air in 1782.
