fact sources and writings about this individual: Research of Kevin Everingham of MI, 2017
Canadian Census data 1851 & 1861 was speculation only, absolute proof of this connecting to John's family wasn't known. HOWEVER, see 1893 Newspaper notes below linking them.
1851 CANADIAN CENSUS Windham, Norfolk, Ontario (Page 97, Dist 25).. "Richard Regglesworth 34, b.ENG,.. Ann 36, b.ENG,.. Mary S. 14, b.UC = (Upper Canada).. Thomas 12, b.UC,.. John 7, b.UC,.. George 5, b.UC,.. James 1, b.UC."
1861 CANADIAN CENSUS Windham, Norfolk, Ontario (C1053, Dist.2 Sheet 192).. "Richard Wriggelsworth 43, b.ENG,.. Ann 44, b.ENG,.. John 16,.. George 13,.. James 11,.. Richard 8,.. Betsy 6,.. Eliza 3,.. Thomas 21, married,.. Catherine 17, married. (all after Richard & Ann were born in Upper Canada)"
1871 CANADIAN CENSUS Mulmur, South Simcoe, Ontario (Page 62, family #204).. "Richard Wrigglesworth 52, b.ENG,.. Ann Wrigglesworth 54, b.ENG,.. James 20, b.CAN,.. Richard 17, b.CAN,.. Betty 15, b.CAN,.. Eliza 13, b.CAN."
1870 US CENSUS Vernon twp, Shiawassee, MI (Seet 43, #371)... "John Wriggelsworth 25, farm laborer, b.CAN,.. Emma 19, b.MI,.. Ada 2, b.MI."
1871 Shiawassee County Birth Record .. "Ema Rigglesworth, b.17 Aug 1871 at Venice, Shiawassee, MI,...d/o John & Nora Rigglesworth." is this another child of John... or was Nora born in 1871? This log has the name Ema Rigglesworth, with Ema underlined.
1876 Shiawassee County Birth Record (Pg.77, #870)... "L.E. Rigglesworth, female, b.29 March 1876 at Venice, Shiawassee, MI.. d/o John & Emma Rigglesworth."
1880 US CENSUS Venice, Shiawassee, MI (Sheet 544B, House #7601791)... "John Rigglesworth 35, b.CAN,.. Emma J. 29, b.MI,.. Ada 11, b.MI,.. Elinor 9, b.MI,.. Frank J. 7, b.MI,.. Laura 4, b.MI,.. Ralph 1, b.MI."
1881 Shiawassee County Marriage Record... "Leroy Wriggelworth 25, b.MI, s/o John Wriggelworth & Emma Stevens... and Winniefred Boyd 25, b.MI, d/o A.E. Boyd."
1888 N.Venice, Shiawassee Marriage Record .. "Fred Jones 26, s/o Webster Jones... married 21 Nov 1888 at N. Venice, Shiawassee,... to Nora Wrigglesworth 18, d/o John Wrigglesworth & Emma Stevens"
1890 The Times Newspaper, Owosso, MI, Sept 26, 1890... "Mr. and Mrs. John Wregglesworth spent Sunday in Bennington at the residence of their daughter, Mrs. Nora Jones." see 1888 Marriage record above.
1893 The Times Newspaper, Owosso, MI, July 21, 1893... "(North Venice social news) Bird Quick and wife of Hemlock City, have been visiting their uncle, John Wregglesworth the past week." Mr. Quick is a clue for Wregglesworth connections... he was born 1868 in Canada and died 1895 in Hemlock, Saginaw County, MI. I found that James Bird Quick, son of Cornelius & Augusta Quick, married Mary Markle on April 8, 1889 in Leamington, Essex, Ontario, Mary was the daughter of William H. Markle & Elizabeth Wrigglesworth. (probable sister of John) I found Elizabeth Markle's death certificate, born 10 Oct 1854 Canada, d/o Richard Wrigglesworth, widowed, died 13 Aug 1937 at Fremont, Saginaw County, Michigan, age 82. Which is fairly strong circumstantial evidence that 1851, 1861 Census data and parent info above is correct.
1900 US CENSUS Corunna, Caledonia Twp, Shiawassee, MI (Page 6A, house #139)... "John Wrigglesworth 57, b.May 1843 CAN,.. Emma J. 50, b.Oct 1850 MI, mother of 7 children, 6 living,.. Ralph 21, b.Jan 1879 MI,.. Lena 17, b.April 1883 MI."
1907 Shiawassee County, MI Grave Index; .. "John Wreggelsworth, b.27 May 1845... died 17 June 1907 at Shiawassee County, MI.. burial Wilkinson Cemetery."
1934 Shiawassee Death Cert.. "Nora A. Jones 64, b.17 Aug 1870 Vernon, MI,.. died 25 Oct 1934 Bennington, Shiawassee, MI.. d/o John Wriggelsworth & Emma Stevens."
