Validator (claude-sonnet-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 2/4, tier record.
The image shows family 288 as Mariah Wood, a 65-year-old widow born in England to English-born parents. This is broadly compatible with Maria Anne Spackman (b. 1824, England) if she married a Wood. The implied birth year is about one year later than claimed and the page does not confirm her identity, so it is thin supporting evidence only. It needs a marriage record or other linking source.
Matches: Family No. 288 (the number in the citation) is Mariah Wood, female, widow, head of household, in Granby Village, Shefford, Quebec; Born in England, with father and mother also born in England, which fits a claimed English birthplace; Church of England religion is plausible for an English-born woman
Flags: Age appears to read 65, which implies birth around 1825–26 (census taken 4 May 1891). A birth on 19 Nov 1824 would make her 66, so the record is about a year off the claim, though handwritten census ages are often inexact.; Surname is Wood, not Spackman. This fits a married name, but nothing on the page links Mariah Wood to Maria Anne Spackman.
Limits: A census gives an age, not a birth date, so it cannot confirm 19 November 1824.; It says only 'England', with no town or county.; No spouse, children or maiden name appear, so the identification rests on the first name and a plausible age.; The age digits are handwritten and could be misread.
