He was born in southern Ontario to Bradford and Matilda Corless, a farming family of German ethnic background. Jonathan does not seem to have been a very independent person. The 1881 Canadian census, shows him age 29, single, and living on the family farm. He did not enter into matrimony until ten days before his 38th birthday.
One wonders what 26 year old Matilda Seamans saw in this person when, in Tillsonburg, she took marriage vows on March 6, 1889. Matilda conceived that June. It is not known whether this was before or after their immigration to Michigan in 1899, where Matilda's father, George D. Seaman was a resident of Bay City.
Jonathan became a father on Feb 4, 1890 to a son George Bradford Corless, born in Silverwood Michigan. This baby was 7 months and 5 days when his father died, in Dayton, Tuscola County. Although there is a state registration of his death at 39 years and six months - the cause of his death is not indicated on the simple spreadsheet.
