WILLIAM F FORSYTH

According to the marriage license of William F. Forsyth and Ellen Reece, they were married August 28, 1860 in WELLAND County, Pelham Township, Canada. 
William Forsyth was born July 22, 1836 and died June 3, 1900. Ellen was born October 1, 1841 and died December 29, 1920. 

They had seven children: 

Jay 
Charles whose family lives in Washington state as far as I know 
Edith d. July 19, 1959 who married George Johnson 
      They had one daughter, Betty, 
             who died before her children were grown. 
Jessie d. January 30, 1958 who married Joe Rhodes 
             They had one daughter, Rita, 
              who married Leo Fredette 
                Children: Arley, Jessie, and Yola 
Archer d. March, 1957 married Ethel 
              They had a daughter, Ellen 
                     (child: Mary Ellen who has 2 children). 
Vern d. March 25, 1958 married M. Burt 
Effie b. August 2, 1876, d. May 21, 1960, 
        married Pearl Allen  
        and had a daughter Ruth Allen (my mother)
                                      who married Lawrence Bottum.

Effie was the youngest. 

I got the name of William's parents, William Forsyth and Rebecca Fell, from COUNTY MARRIAGE REGISTERS OF ONTARIO,
CANADA 1858-1869, edited by W. E. Britnell. Agincourt, ON; Generation Press, 1979, located in the Burton Historical Collection of the Detroit Public Library, Detroit, Michigan. 

However, I cannot find Rebecca Fell anywhere else as she is always referred to as Rebecca Moffet.
