Notes

General:

Email from Donna Izzard 260606:

Going further back, she said Archibalds fathers name was John LeMesurier and she believed he was also born in Barachois but didnt know for sure. He was a fisherman,she said he had one brother for sure named Ezibald who everyone called Zoz.John married Elizabeth Vibert who she said was from Malbais. Barachois and Malbais are very close to each other. They had at least 7 children that she could remember. Archibald, John, George, Edward, Elizabeth, Jane and Clara. I also have some names of who those children married if you need it. One interesting thing, Archibald and his brother George married Anne and Jane Brown on the same day, two sisters.

• Illness: Born deaf and dumb, 23 Dec 1815, St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. 150419:

When Eliza Coke [Hutchings] Le Messurier died young, her parents, George and Mary [Williams] Hutchings made over the "Marsh Meadow" property at the west end of Duckworth St. to Peter Weston Carter to be managed in trust for her children by Pierre Broom Le Messurier. This seems to indicate a distrust on their part that he would adequately look after their children himself. It was noted in the papers that one granchild, John Thomas Le Messurier, was born deaf and dumb, making him particularly vulnerable.
