Janet and Matthew Archibald built their house on the north bank of the Salmon River, where they spent the remainder of their days. From the Halifax Guardian of March 1843: "Died at Truro, on Saturday, March 5, 1843, Janet, widow of the late Matthew Archibald, Esq., aged 93. She was married when 17 years old, and shortly after, came to this Province, where she has left a large body of descendants. She had twelve children, one hundred grandchildren, two hundred and eighty-five great grandchildren, and twenty three great great grandchildren - in all, three hundred and eighty-five (as of the date of her death.) Mrs. Archibald exhibited, in her life an example, unobtrusive, but consistent piety. Her religion was her delight in the days of health, and in sorrow and sickness her consolation and support". I may here mention that she was one of the families who assisted raising the Truro meeting house-frame, in the spring of the year 1768.
