Notes:

Died:
When Gustavius died, his death certificate lists him as a bachelor, even though his wife didn't fie until 4 years later and the informant was the undertaker, rather than his wife or daughter (daughter was living in UK at the time of his death).

Gustavius married Edith Maude Mattis. Edith (daughter of Joseph Mattis and Letitia Caroline Duhaney) was born on 25 Apr 1893 in Half Way Tree, Saint Andrew, Jamaica; died about 1978 in Jamaica. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

The Jamaica, Civil Registration Birth, Marriage, and Death Records, 1878-1930 on Ancestry.com shows a Ebenezer McLaggan (son of William Louis McLaggan) marrying Angelina Grant on 26 May 1907 in Saint Catherine, Saint Catherine, Jamaica. However, I suspect it may not be the right person as the marriage date seems too late, as his son married in 1908.

However, the Jamaica, Civil Registration Birth, Marriage, and Death Records, 1878-1930 on Ancestry.com show that Angelina died on 25 Feb 1948 aged 90 (born about 1858). This in 1907 when she and Ebenezer married, she would have been aged 49. So perhaps this was a second marriage and perhaps the above is our Ebenezer?
