Births Jun 1876.
Groutage Mary Elizabeth. Penkridge. 6b. 557.

Thank you so much for all the new information. I did have quite a bit of info from Sask. vital statistics where they settled. But did not have info on their immigration dates. So it would appear that perhaps Jabel was married before in Nottingham. Immigrated to Canada later and then met Mary Groutage after she immigrated in 1895. The plot thickens.

They were still here 5 April 1891. (census day)

Could be Mary's father Samuel, living alone.

Thank you all for filling in a lot of the blanks.
Mary's father Samuel GROUTAGE could have come over first to Crescent Lake, SK. Family followed. Then Mary met Jabel and married. Most of their children were born in Crescent Lake. SK.
Wonder what happened to Jabel's first wife?
