  Marriage	13 Apr 1826	Halifax County, NS   [4]
  Notes	I have no smoking gun to prove that the Margaret KEDDY who m. Charles BOUTILIER in 1826 is this Margaret KEDDY. However, in the 1838 Census of St. Margaret's Bay, there are only two KEDDY families Listed, those of William Alexander and his son William John. So there would seem to be no other available Margaret KEDDY's. Also, however, the older sister of this Margaret KEDDY marry the brother of this Charles BOUTILIER, so the circumstantial evidence seems quite strong.
