Quebec, Canada, Vital and Church Records (Drouin Collection), 1621-1968

Validator (claude-opus-5-5, 2026-10-28): consistent, confidence 2/4, tier record.
This is the 1848 Farnham Anglican register, folio 3, signed by William Jones. It records that Samuel Wood Esq. of Farnham died on 24 January and was buried on 26 January 1848, aged sixty one years. An age of 61 on 24 January 1848 strictly implies birth between late January 1786 and 24 January 1787. A birth on 27 January 1787 would make him 60, three days short of 61. That is within normal age-rounding and inside the one-year tolerance, so it is not a contradiction. The record says nothing about the birth date or the Vermont birthplace.
Matches: Entry names Samuel Wood Esq. of the Township of Farnham; Died 24 January and buried 26 January 1848, matching the claimed death year 1848; Aged sixty one years at death, implying birth about 1786–1787, consistent with the claimed 1787; Witnesses Philip Wood and Amos Wood, likely relatives
Limits: This is a burial record. It gives an age at death, not a birth date.; It does not state a birthplace, so it cannot confirm Marlboro, Windham, Vermont.; It does not name parents, so it cannot link Samuel to a Vermont birth record.
