Notes:

Mentioned in 1942 Obit for Mrs. Isiah Leblanc are Jerome, Stephen and Simon as above along with sons Leander and Clarence in Sydney Mines and Augustus in Detroit, and daughters Mrs. Joseph Harrietha (Dora), Mrs. Sid Trenblet (possibly Eliza) both of Sydney Mines and Mrs. John McConvielle (Annie) and Mrs. A. Collins (Viola) of Detroit.

In 1927 marriage between Dora and Joseph Harrietha it says that Isiah was born in RB.  While this is unlikely since his parents moved to Little Bras d'Or in 1847 it does link Isiah to the other Leblancs in the area (in some cases Isiah is reported as Elias).
