I see by your information that you are familiar with Pioneer Life on the Bay of Quinte It says that Nancy Brason died at the home of John Henry Stafford 1885. Nancy is buried at White Chapel Cemetery Sophiasburgh beside John Stafford.The inscription says "John Stafford died Aug 17 1837, Nancy Brason died Apr 18 1874. I couldn't get a death certificate for her. It could have been a delayed registration. Mary Black mary.black@@sympatico.ca
