Mowatt, d/o Thomas Mowatt (not one of the "Harvey" Mowatts, but a Charlotte County Mowatt) and his wife Alice Wightman, b. 1859, d/o John Wightman and Annie Messer. Thomas Fee James and his wife Annie are both buried in St. Stephen Rural Cemetery. I don't know if they had children, but possible "Pauline Janet James, Bay Road" is a daughter??".
