"Fanny wife
of Arnold Rodgers born Feb 15, 1807 died Feb 9, 1890."
Cemetery stone
photographed and transcribed at Jericho Cemetery
at 1258 Regional Road 16, at the southeast corner of the
intersection of Regional Roads 3 & 16, in Jericho,
Charlotteville Township, by Susan
McShannon-Monteith.
The above photo and transcription of her
ancestor's
cemetery stone was contributed by site visitor Susan
McShannon-Monteith via email 3 Jan 2011, to
correct a transcription error previously published on, and since
deleted from, this web site.
"I thought I'd send along the photo of my great-great-great grandmother
Fanny (Pattison) Rodgers cemetery stone, who is laid to rest in
Jericho Cemetery. With just the right October daylight angle, the
two NN's are quite visible in her name of Fanny rather than the original [transcription] as Carry."
As the above photo shows, the deceased's given name ends
in NNY, ruling out Carry. We have no reason not to accept
Fanny as her given name. |
