Deziar Corman ~ daughter of Alpheus & Rachel

married Richard Gower.

The 1901 census lists Deziar’s birth date as January 23, 1833.  The death certificate would seem to authenticate that date, as her age at death on March 22, 1909 is given as 76 years and 2 months.

Photo taken by Dan Lanteigne ~ *The spelling of Deziar’s name on the stone is incorrect. Deziar’s daughter’s name was Rachel Deziah (after her Grandmother, Rachel Soules Corman and the combination of her Great Grandmother’s name, Keziah Deziar Green Corman).  Those surviving may have been confused by the mother/daughter difference.

Deziar is buried in Oaklawn Cemetery
Jordan Station, Niagara Regional Municipality, Ontario, Canada
