Note by Patricia Balkcom: Richard died six days later at the 31 years. His 6 month son, Richard, had died 10 days earlier, so it is possible that they both had a contagious illness. Although they were living in Quebec City at the time of their deaths according to the will, they were both buried in Ste-Catherine-d-Jacques-Cartier. Richard was the son of the late James Carroll and Ellen Aylward.
