• Note*: January 1804; Cornwall, Upper Canada; "In the winter of 1803-04, Robert I. D. Gray went to Albany. On his return he wrote a letter to his cousin, Mrs. Catherine Valentine, dated at Kingston. February 16. 1804, of which the following is an extract: "I saw some of our old friends while in the States. None was I more happy to meet than Lavine, Dorine's mother. Just as I was leaving Albany I heard from our cousin, Mrs. Garret Staats, who is living in Albany, that Lavine was living in a tavern with a man of the name of Bramley. I immediately employed a friend of mine (Mr. Ramsay, of Albany,) to negotiate with the man for the purchase of her. He did so, stating that I wished to buy her freedom, in consequence of which the man readily complied with my wishes, and although he declared she was worth to him, £100.0.0, he gave her to me for $50.00. When I saw her she was overjoyed, and appeared as happy as any person could be at the idea of seeing her child Dorine and her children once more, with whom, if Dorine wishes it, she will willingly spend the remainder of her days. I could not avoid doing this act; the opportunity seemed to have been thrown in my way by Providence, and I could not resist. She is a good servant yet, healthy and strong, and among you you may find her useful. I have promised her that she may work as much or as little as she pleases, while she lives ; but from the character I have of her, idleness is not her pleasure." Mr. Gray adds: "I saw old Cato, Lavine's father, at Newark, while I was at Colonel Ogden's. He is living with Mrs. Governeur, is well taken care of, and blind: poor fellow came to feel me, for he could not see. He asked affectionately after the family." Lavine came to Canada and lived for the remainder of her life in the family of Judge Anderson, near Cornwall." (Lunenburgh, or the Old Eastern District, page 319 & 320, Chapter XXXVI - John Baker, the last of those who were born in slavery in Canada.)
• Note: 8 October 1804; Lake Ontario, Newcastle, Newcastle Dist., Upper Canada; Lieut. Joseph Anderson's brother, John Anderson, was a promising young law student who accompanied Solicitor-General Robert I. D. Gray on the Speedy in October 1804 as was lost along with his boss when the ship sank in a storm. The double connection here is that Simon Baker, who was Robert I.. D. Gray's body servant, was also on the Speedy. His grandmother had just a few months before been purchased in Albany by Mr. Gray and lived in Lieut. Joseph Anderson's household near Cornwall.

• Note*: 1759; New York, U.S.A.; "A well-known character in Cornwall twenty years ago was John Baker, who died in January, 1871. He was a mulatto, and had been a slave, as had been also his mother, Dorine, his grandmother, Lavine, and his great-grandfather, Cato. The history of his family goes back to a period prior to the settlement of Upper Canada, in fact to the time in the old Colony days when the war with France was a thing of the future and the Revolutionary war not dreamed of.
  Cato, John's great-grandfather, was an African. He was brought to North America, where he became the slave of Mr. John Low, a resident of Newark, New Jersey. While in Mr. Low's service, Cato's daughter named Lavine was born, who in 1759 gave birth to Dorine, John Baker's mother. The date of Dorine's birth is established, from the following facts: Mr. Low's daughter Margaret married Dr. Farrand (a physician living in the State of New York) in 1752 or 1753. In 1759 Mrs. Farrand gave birth to a daughter named Hannah, who afterwards married Joseph Anderson, a lieutenant in the King's Royal Regiment of New York. It was a well-known tradition in the Farrand family that Hannah Farrand and the daughter of the slave Lavine were born in the same year." (Lunenburgh, or the Old Eastern District, page 318, Chapter XXXVI - John Baker, the last of those who were born in slavery in Canada.)

Whether Lavine and her daughter Dorine, or Dorine alone, was given to Mrs. Gray by her father, is not distinctly known, but it was known that Dorine was the property of the Grays, and that when the breaking up of families began in 1776, Captain Gray and his wife, and their nephew and nieces, Jacob Farrand and Hannah and Catherine Farrand (children of Dr. and Mrs. Margaret Farrand), came to Canada, and brought with them Dorine, then in her seventeenth year.
