  • Notes 
    • On his death certificate, (Registration Year: 1938 - Book: 177 - Page: 380), the informant, his daughter, Mrs. Black, has given his parents names as "George Henry Boutilier" and "Jane Mars", both born in Coxheath. Age, "87 years, 9 months, 28 days";
      This must be some kind of a mistake, b/c a George Henry Boutilier of Coxheath, also had a son named Alfred, but moved to Iowa before 1880 (see 1880 U.S. census for example). Not to mention that there is no Jane Mars.

      Author cannot find the marriage for Louise Andrews to Alfred. Perhaps the marriage was "informal"??
