Charlottetown Guardian, 6 Mar 1937
The death of Daniel Talbot occurred at his home in Charlottetown on Saturday after an illness of about ten months.  Mr Talbot was born in Pictou sixty-two years ago, a son of the late Mr and Mrs Mark Talbot.  He had lived here for many years and was well known here.  His wife, formerly Miss Winnifred Fleager, survives him, as do one daughter, Mrs Cecil Jenkins, of Charlottetown, two sisters, Mrs Matthew Hayman, of East Providence, RD and Mrs James Beales, of Providence, RI, and two brothers, George in Quebec and James in Pictou.  Mr Talbot was a shoemaker by trade and was known widely for the quality and thoroughness of his workmanship.  He was known to a large number of friends in Pictou County and elsewhere, who will hear of his passing with deep regret.  The funeral was held on Tuesday from St Andrew's Presbyterian Church, with a Masonic ceremony by New Caledonia Lodge No 11, of which Mr Talbot had been a member for many years.  

Their daughter moved to California and is buried at the Valhalla Memorial Park Cemetery in Los Angeles
