NOTE

Rebecca, a Farm Woman/Farmer, was born c 1841 at Whitby, Ontario & died in 1893. Her death record can be seen here. Her parents were Peter & Rebecca Fidget. Last name could be spelt 'Fitchet'. See the family here in the 1851 census.

Rebecca died aged 10 (although I can't locate her death record) & Robenna died in infancy (her death record can be seen here).

Fred may have married Ethel & lived at Manitoba, Winnipeg, 4E, which is taken from the 1906 Canada Census of Manitoba index.
