Name in Record Description of error or addition My Name

PATEY File has the surname (Pady?) in dwelling 29. It was actually spelled Patey, and can be confirmed by headstones. Bruce Musson

MUSSON Dwelling 27 has Matthew (5?), it should be 2. He is my father born Aug. 13, 1932. Note that Matthew & Bridget use(d) the last name Musson, rather than Musseau. Charles actually signed deeds exactly as "Musseau(Musseaux,Musson)". Bruce Musson

OSMOND My family are listed as being Osborne but in fact are Osmond. I believe this may be true for other families. Osmond is a very commone name in Mouse Island but yet it isn't in the census. Duane Osmond

Name in Record	Description of error or addition	My Name
PATEY	File has the surname (Pady?) in dwelling 29. It was actually spelled Patey, and can be confirmed by headstones.	Bruce Musson
MUSSON	Dwelling 27 has Matthew (5?), it should be 2. He is my father born Aug. 13, 1932. Note that Matthew & Bridget use(d) the last name Musson, rather than Musseau. Charles actually signed deeds exactly as "Musseau(Musseaux,Musson)".	Bruce Musson
OSMOND	My family are listed as being Osborne but in fact are Osmond. I believe this may be true for other families. Osmond is a very commone name in Mouse Island but yet it isn't in the census.	Duane Osmond
