I figure Alvira Webb had issue of 2 sons by Robert Eagles; Oscar and Charles
F. despite being enumerated as Phinney on the 1891 Census; correct on the
1901 Census.
Benjamin died in Parrsboro not Springhill as per his death record. Robert
Shipley was the informant on the death record and perhaps he didn¹t supply
the correct birth date or mother¹s first name?
Hope this helps.
