Margaret Canaday (1797-1871), Wayne County, Indiana

Working on filling in some gaps in my database by utilizing the "Indiana Marriages, 1811-1959" database at Familysearch.org to see what updates and corrections I could find.

Margaret Canaday (1797-1871) was the daughter of Charles Canaday and Sarah Russell.  Her marriage to James Harvey on October 12, 1820 in Wayne County, Indiana was located in the database.  Prior to this find, I had a different date for their marriage.

Margaret was my maternal 3rd cousin 6 times removed.  Our common ancestors were John Beals and Sarah Bowater.  I have not traced any more on their family as of yet.
