fact sources and writings about this individual:
Records from the research of Roger Harris, CAN: Ontario vital statistics -Certificate #20549/88, shows "James H." occupation "Blacksmith" on the registration of his son Harry F. Haldimand County Marriage records: James Everingham, 21, Canboro, s/o James & Violet, 30 June 1865, to Margaret Lymburner, 20, Canboro, d/o Jay & Sarah. Their property description: 1871, Lot44,Conc3,Onandaga Twsp.Brant Co. - 4 acres. In the 1871 Federal CENSUS of Onondaga Township, Brant Co., Ontario, Page 20, listed as James Everingham Jr., Episcopal Methodist, age 24, born in Ontario.
Records from research of Kevin Everingham of MI:
John Jay LYMBURNER was the son of Alexander & Catherine (SECORD) LYMBURNER. Alexander was born 1771 in Penobscot, Washington Co. ME and died Dec 1, 1812 in Ontario. Catherine was born about 1776 and died Oct 31, 1855.
1880 US CENSUS Huron City, Huron County, Michigan (Sheet 87C).. "James Avery, 32, b.CAN,.. Margaret Avery, 29, wife,.. Mahlon Avery 9, son, Henry Avery 6, son,.. Emma Avery 5, dau,.. Arthur Avery 2, son." all born in Canada except Arthur born in MI. Living next door was his brother; Eugene Everingham 22, living in a boarding house.
1900 This family also shows up in the 1900 US CENSUS of Huron County, Michigan. It appears that James Everingham may have died and Margaret re-married to a James Avery and this seems logical except for the 1900 census which shows that James Avery and Margaret were married when Mahlon Everingham and Henry Everingham were born so the names overlap marriage time. Because of this, I believe that James & Margaret Everingham ARE James & Margaret AVERY.
A very strong piece of name-change evidence:
1907 Huron County, MI death records (Vol.2, Pg.248).. "Margaret AVERY 60, born in Canada, married, housewife, died 5th Feb 1907 at Sand Beach Township, Huron, MI. Her father is listed as J. Lymburner."
NAME CHANGE;
Much of the information about James Everingham and Margaret Lymburner becoming James & Margaret AVERY seems unlikely at first, but is completely explained with evidence and proof in the 634pg. book; Everingham Family History, vol.1 (c)2024
