Narrative

On the 4th October, at the residence of her father, Mr. Solomon Hardy, Kildare River, Elizabeth Powell, the beloved wife of Mr. Hector McDougald, leaving a husband and eight children to mourn the loss of a kind and loving wife and mother, aged 38 years. (Islander Nov 29 1867; Summerside Journal November 21 1867 page 3).

The diary of the Rev. Robert Dyer:

Sept 20. Sent for this morning to go to Kildare to see a poor woman who all thought would have died the evening before, Mrs McDougall, S. Hardy's daughter. She craved to see me. She is the mother of 8 children, I believe.

Afterwards, baptized an infant in the household (belonging to another person).

October 6. Elijah Hardy came for me this morning to ask me to bury Mrs McDougall who died on Friday evening.

Two separate sources confirm that Elizabeth had 8 children: 7 have been identified. Elizabeth and Hector named 4 children after their parents, Ellen, Ann, Solomon, and Alexander.
