Hi Dave and Dolores,
Thanks for posting this new information. I do not have a Mary Ann Friars married to a John Willigar. Somethings fishy in Denmark, needs further investigating.
Thanks,
Pam

I tend to think your correct. Thanks for the second set of eyes.

Pam:
I think several items of data are off by a line on the John Willigar / Mary
Ann Ruff 1864 marriage so it¹s hard to tell. Feel father, ³John Willigar² is
one of those pieces of data that¹s off by a line.
Feel John Willigar should be B, 46, Shipwright; Living Black Rock; Born
Parrsboro, s/o John Willigar, Fisherman, and Mary Ann Ruff should be S, 30;
Living Black Rock; Born Five Islands, d/o (not given), father¹s occupation
(can¹t make out)
Witnesses; John & Jacob Willigar [father & brother?]
Cannot locate a surname RUFF on the 1871 Colchester or Cumberland Census.
