Narrative

Said to be a daughter of Malcolm Ramsay and Mary Murphy in the history of the Ramsay family compiled by Thomas Ramsay in 1920; this was verified by the newspaper announcement of her marriage. The will of Malcolm Ramsay Lot 17, signed 1837 but never put through probate: 46 acre farm to his son Archibald. Will also names wife Mary, children Jannet, Nelly, Mary, Margaret, James and John. (See Early PEI probate, by Linda Jean Nicholson)

The Islander – Dec 19, 1862
Died.
At Lot 16, on the 3rd inst., of inflammation of the lungs, Mary, the beloved wife of Mr. William Hutchinson, in the 68th year of her age. The deceased, during the time of her illness, evinced a calm resignation to the Divine Will, which enabled her to meet death stripped of its terrors, and prepared to meet her God, trusting in the Saviour as the only means of salvation and hope after death. She was an affectionate wife, and a tender and warm hearted mother.
