However, it does not support the LDS 1881 transcription which shows a birthplace of Quebec for all of the family except for John the father. For John the birthplace is England, and for his son George it is a ditto mark, not a Q. However, the ditto mark does not appear to extend down for the rest of the family.

     On George's marriage registration, his parents were listed as James H. Sheridan and Margaret McLeod
