Looking for information on John Chrysler who appears as widow in 1851 City of Chatham census with two children Andrew age 4 and another age 2. Blacksmith, Episcopal. Lived in 1 1/2 storey frame house listed as 2 families. Immediately preceding is another Chrysler family. Is the other famiy his parents and siblings?

On John Chrysler's death registration it gives his birth place as Vermont USA but no parents are given. Informant is W A Chrysler of Chatham. John died 12 Sep 1912 of heart disease.

On all the other census except 1851, it says a John Chrysler, living Kent County, was born in USA.

On a Hiram Chrysler's death registration,b about 1828, it gives his birth place as Vermont USA so he is maybe a brother. No parents given.

1891 gives a Frederick Chrysler, born USA, 1827 in Harwick Kent County.

Thanks for the information.

A search on Ancestry using this death date, shows John "Christler" in Stambridge Missisquoi Quebec 1851 census. You might want to look at the actual 27 Oct 1856 Quebec Land Grant document. It may contain information to tell you why your John was in Quebec, but born Vermont. Meanwhile, I will keep plugging on "the other" John Chrysler and Kansas connection
