Born in 1935 Died in 1915 at the ripe old age of -20. That's quite a

Obviously a typo. First mention of birth was 1832. But do wonder if

Back when the ungrateful rabble bit the hand that fed them (American
Revolution) there were quite a number here who may have gone with the 13

The ties were close in those days.
The British had a real strong garrison town/naval port in Halifax that
carried the day.
The great American's bit the hand that TAXED them, idiot.
And taxes then were lower than today.

Georgia Bud?
