The transcribed register entry states Sarah Eliza Barber, wife of Franklin Wood, died 19 April and was buried 21 April 1863, which matches the claimed burial date. Age nearly 43 fits a 1820 birth. The Granby register supports the place, though the transcription does not name it directly and no image was available to verify.
Matches: Name Sarah Eliza Barber matches (recorded as wife of Franklin Wood); Burial on the twenty-first of April 1863 matches claimed date 21 April 1863; Age "nearly forty three" implies birth c. 1820, consistent with 1820 in the claim; Granby Anglican (St George's) register is consistent with burial at Granby, Quebec
Limits: No image attached; judged from the transcription only; Place of burial is inferred from the register name, not stated in the note text; Age 'nearly 43' gives a birth year of about 1820 but not an exact date; Death date (19 April) is in the record but not part of this claim
