Burial Notes: Child - Sarah Elizabeth Poapst

Aultsville was flooded during the creation of the St. Lawrence Seaway in 1958. Sarah's grave was most likely relocated to Ingleside before the flooding.

Indexed in findagrave.com as Richard G. Paupst, b. 1868, d. 1958. Because of the different spelling and birth year, it is possible that a different person is interred at Carville Cemetery.

Research Notes: Husband - John Frederick Poapst

Source: Family records of Lorna (Wallace) Johnson. Lorna Wallace family tree has only "John Poapst, Canada?"

Although some sources show middle initial as T, it's pretty certain that his middle name was Frederick (F. is on the gravestone).



Birth Notes: Wife - Margaret Wood

May have been born about 1794 or earlier. Rosemary Benson has b. 1797. Her gravestone reads "AE 59 yrs."

Poss. b. Cornwall, Ontario or Gananoque (Leeds and Grenville Co.), Ontario.


Death Notes: Wife - Margaret Wood

My interpretation of the date on her gravestone is d. 18 Apr 1858. kjf 10/26/11

Site http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~poaps/Notices.htm has
"Margaret, wife of John F. Poapst d. 18 Apr 1853, age 59 years
Buried at Poapst Homestead. (Taken from a gravestone)" The year 1853 is probably incorrect.


Burial Notes: Wife - Margaret Wood

Gravestone reads:
Mary Poapst - d. Jan. 17, 1849 - AE 22 yrs. - daughter of John F. & Margaret Poapst
Curtis Poapst - b. July 21, 1843 - d. Feb. 28, 1885
John F. Poapst - died Oct 2, 1887 - AE 72 yrs

Margaret - died April 18, 1858 - AE 59 yrs

The stone was originally in the back of the Poapst family homestead, where the bodies remain. The stone was brought to Willis United Cemetery at some time before April 2002.


General Notes: Wife - Margaret Wood

Note: The family tree created by Lorna Wallace Johnson around 1950 has only the name "Margaret Wood" and ", Canada." Lorna did not know Margaret's parents' names.


Research Notes: Wife - Margaret Wood

Margaret's parents were definitely:
Lt. Col.Roger Wood (Ul.E.L.) (1767-1862) + Margaret Drew (1767-1864)
NOT
John Wood (U.E.L.) (abt 1764-1852) + Abigail Drew (1766-?)

Note: John & Abigail's daughter Margaret married Alexander Ross.



Notes: Marriage

Another source has married in 1828.

Burial Notes: Child - Sarah C. Poapst

She was originally buried at United Church Cemetery, Moulinette, Cornwall Township, Stormont County, Ontario, a Lost Villages cemetery.


Burial Notes: Child - Mary Poapst

Gravestone reads:
Mary Poapst - d. Jan. 17, 1849 - AE 22 yrs. - daughter of John F. & Margaret Poapst
Curtis Poapst - b. July 21, 1843 - d. Feb. 28, 1885

Death Notes: Child - Alexander Poapst

A typewritten family tree from a Poapst family Bible has his death date as 8 Nov 1910. Other sources have 15 Nov 1910.


Birth Notes: Child - Benjamin Poapst

May have been born in Osnabruck, Stormont, Ontario.


Birth Notes: Child - Anna A. Poapst

Rosemary Benson has born in Cornwall, Ontario.


Birth Notes: Child - Ephraim Poapst

Rosemary Benson has born in Cornwall, Ontario.


Death Notes: Child - Ephraim Poapst

He may have died in Lunenburg. Although one source has his death date at 14 Feb 1920, his gravestone has "1935-1919." The February date may be that of the funeral or memorial service.


Birth Notes: Child - Susan Martha Poapst

Rosemary Benson has b. 20 Nov 1840 in North Lunenburg, Ontario.


Birth Notes: Child - Curtis Poapst

FamilySearch has his birthdate as 21 July 1848. However, the 1871 census gives his age as 27. It seems likely that he was born in 1843 instead (a misreading of the gravestone?).

The entry for Curtis in the Curtis Poapst family Bible is not entirely clear. It could be 1843 or 1848. I'm interpreting it as 1843. The "3" looks the same as in Edith Pearl Poapst's birth date in the same hand.

Lorna Wallace family tree has b. July, 1848 in Lunenburg, Ontario, Canada, but I think she erred. Other sources (e.g., Rosemary Benson) have 1843. Rosemary Benson did a great deal of research and may be right.

http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~poaps/Notices.htm, etc. has tombstone inscription from Poapst homestead, [Osnabruck Twp., Stormont Co.,] Ontario.

See also http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:3047155&id=I582489045, seems authoritative. Has b. 21 Jul 1843. Another RootsWeb source has 1848.

My guess is that the headstone is no longer legible.


Death Notes: Child - Curtis Poapst

Source http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~poaps/Notices.htm has d. 28 February 1885.
