     The following obituary appeared in the newspaper the Alexandra and Yea Standard published in Alexandra, Victoria 18 September 1936:
Obituary
MR. TIMOTHY CREIGHTON
After a long and useful life, Mr. Timothy Creighton, late of Yarck, died at his home at Mansfield on Saturday, September 5. The late Mr. Creighton was born in Cumberland, England, 86 years ago, and he came to Victoria with his parents, in the sailing ship "Europa" in 1852. At that time it took at least four months to cover the distance by ship, but to-day it can be done by aeroplane in a few days. On arriving at Melbourne, the family was met by a bullock dray and transported to Bundoora, where Mr. Creighton’s father obtained employment. Some years later the family selected land at Hazelglen, Arthur's Creek. When a young man the late Mr. Timothy Creighton went to Yarck, took up land, and lived there for over 50 years. He reared a family of nine children. Mr. Creighton was a successful landman and a good man for his district. In his younger days he took a keen interest in horses, and he ranked with the best judges of light and heavy horses in the country, and bred and exhibited many prize-winners. Furthermore, he was a great rough rider and was quite at home on the roughest of horses.

Before the railway was constructed to Mansfield, the deceased brought many drafts of sheep to Newmarket by road; in fact, he was entrusted with most of the sheep despatched from time to time. His reminiscences of olden times were most interesting.

His services were always available when there was sickness in the district, and he would willingly turn out day or night to assist his neighbours. Moreover, up to the time he left Yarck he acted as local undertaker free of charge, and most of the burials in the Yarck cemetery, particularly in the early days, were conducted by him.

Mr. Creighton took a keen interest in all local activities, which included membership of the Alexandra Agricultural Society, and his long practical experience was of great value. He and his family will long be remembered in the districts, as he was an honourable and first-class citizen in every sense of the word.

The burial took place at Yarck, and the funeral was one of the largest seen in the district.5

NASHUA

     Margaret Calhoun was identified as the mother of Robert Dudley Riddell in Robert's obituary after his death on 14 March 1958.17
     The following analysis is from my personal research and reflects my attempts to consolidate information from different sources.
Yesterday (5 Dec 2020) I had an ah-ha moment.

In 2007, Donna Renwick provided me with a descendants report for Walter Renwick and Mary Weal, my 2nd great-granduncle and his wife. I dutifully recorded this data in my database, giving a surety of 1, meaning it was unreliable because sources were not cited.

One of their grandchildren, was recorded as:
John Riddle (sic) b: 1848 in Hamilton Twp., Ontario, Canada d: in Iowa. His parents were Walter Riddle (sic) and Mary A Renwick

More research was required, and there the trail ended for 13 years.

Several days ago, I revisited Margaret May (or Mae) Calhoun/Calhoon who I knew was a descendant of Walter Renwick and Mary Weal (see above.) Reviewing obituaries (Newspapers.com and Newspaperarchive.com), census data and other records in Ancestry.com and Find A Grave, I established that she married John Scott Riddell. Therefore, I added him to my database.

Riddell is a family name that I have encountered often in Illinois research and many of them are distantly related to me through Walter and Mary. I started to fill in the family of John Scott Riddell, who I found was born in Canada in 1848. He died in Iowa in 1896.

When I looked at my TMG picklist of names, I realized that I had several name variants of John, John S, John Samuel and John Scott Riddell/Riddle in my database. Two of them were born in 1848 in Canada!

John Riddle was reportedly born in 1848 in Hamilton Twp., which was in Northumberland County in what would later become Ontario.

John Scott Riddell was born in 1848 in Cobourg, Northumberland County, in what would later become Ontario.

Since John Riddle and John Scott Riddell appear to be the same person, I have merged them in my database, Thus, I have established that he married his first cousin, Margaret (Maggie) Mae Calhoon/Calhoun.

I love it when pieces of information align, and I can merge two individual database records into one person, dragging along all of their associated family links

So both John Scott Riddell and his wife, Maggie Mae Calhoun are my 2nd cousins 2 times removed.18
