Notes from Loretta Glawson Fry:

Francis Glawson was the son of Francis and Mary Ann (nee Walsh) Glawson and grandson of Francis and Elizabeth (nee West) Glawson of Pope's Harbour. Although Francis Glawson was not living at Port Dufferin in 1851 (since he is not listed in the Census of 1851), he was living here by 1859.  Henry Francis gave Salmon River as the Glawson's place of residence. Francis Glawson married Susan Murphy, the daughter of Martin and Bridget Murphy of Sheet Harbour. Susan Glawson died at Port Dufferin on 9 December 1871 at the age of thirty-five years.  Following his wife's death, on 30 Nov, 1872. Francis Glawson married Elizabeth Stockman, the daughter of William and Eleanor Stockman, of Petit Harbour, Newfoundland. She died on 29 Nov. 1908, aged fifty-six years.

      18    ix. Peter Francis Glawson, born February 01, 1888 in
                 Quoddy, Nova Scotia; died October 22, 1888.

Notes for Peter Francis Glawson:
Peter F. Glawson is noted buried by Francis and Elizabeth (2nd wife) Susan and Annie, HOWEVER, dates on tombstone are 1888-1971, NOT 1868-1888. Only other possibility is that another baby was born in 1888 named the same, living until 1971. Another Peter Francis is recorded born in 1888, but on the exact same day, which seems a little unlikely. My best guess at this time is that the only Peter Francis was born in 1888 and lived until 1971. Any other entries are errors on the same individual. --Maggie McCracken from on-line cemetery survey.

More About Francis Ambrose Glawson:
Baptism: September 26, 1869, St. Peter's, Halifax, Nova Scotia

Notes for Bertha Murphy?:

A Bertha Murphy had an illegitimate child, Joseph--however, this may NOT 
be this particular Bertha Murphy...my original reference is Bertha M. so I am only speculating that she WAS a Murphy, and the one who had this child as well. It is possible 
that the father was a Keating, since he was sponsored by Keatings, and that 
they were to wed as the baptismal is conditional, usually upon marriage of the parties.

He was born January 28, 1863 in Middle Stewiacke, Nova Scotia, and died May 25, 1929 in Halifax, Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Notes for Susan Agnes Glawson:

Susan A. Brenton Glawson noted buried with Francis and Elizabeth (Stockton) Glawson (Francis' 2nd wife), her father and Annie S. and Peter F., her siblings. However, tombstone dates are 1878 to 1947, not 1878 to 1914. Based on these interrments, I am presuming Susan A. Brenton to be Susan Agnes Glawson having married a Brenton. Tombstone weathering could possibly misconstrue 1947 to be 1914.  --Maggie McCracken from on-line cemetery survey, 2001.
