from Diane Stiles Bacon dianebacon [vicdibacon@ns.sympatico.ca] 3/29/05:
You asked about info on Josiah and Mary Ann's death dates and places of burial. I'm still looking for that info. Most of the possible resources are exhausted. My personal feeling is that they are buried in the "Old Burying Ground" in West Amherst, NS. A younger daughter was buried there as well as their son, Ezra (1889) & his wife, Araminta
(1890)
My great grandfather was George Allen Stiles and my husband's great
grandfather
was Ezra Stiles, the two youngest siblings of David Stiles and whose father
was Josiah Stiles.
