County Marriage Registers of Ontario, CAN 1858-1869, Vol. 4, Index to Huron County:
Vol. 4, p. 157: Return of Marriages Solemnized by Rev. Augustus Wassernau:
Jeremiah Sullivan, 24, of Ashfield, born U.S. (probably Western States Of ONT) son of Thomas Sullivan and Mary Reynolds to Helen Brown 23, of Ashfield, daughter of Henry Brown and Mary Cleaton (sic). Witnesses: Peter Brown, Catherine Sullivan, 31st of January 1866.
It would appear from this that Jeremiah was born in 1842, or if he turned 25 later in the year, then he was born in 1841. His gravestone shows that he was born in 1839 and died in 1929.
Ellen would have been born in 1843 or if she turned 24 later in the year, she was actually born in 1842. This is borne out by her date of death May 15, 1905, aged 63 on her tombstone. She was born in Canada, probably ONT (thus the WS) or maybe in New Brunswick enroute.
