This is not a family that I am researching but I thought I might be able to find something to help.
All the below except the census info can be found on the Nova Scotia Vital Stat website below
www.novascotiagenealogy.ca
Oct 24, 1900 Sandy Cove Cora M Nichols married George L Marr.She is recorded as age 21, spinster, born Rossway, dau of Charles and Hannage.This is verified in both 1891 and 1881 Census.
The 1881 Census of Rossway, Digby County, NS lists the family of Charles and Hannah as Hanford-age 16, Charles-age 12, Horice-age 6, Cora-age 11 mos
Cora’s (delayed) Birth Registration names her parents as Charles Nichols and Hannah Grafton and she signs it "Cora May Marr".
The Marriage Bond of Charles Nichols and Hannah Grafton in 1863 which is onlinedoesn’t name the parentsof course.But the Death certificate of Charles Nichols in 1922 names his parents as Stephen Nichols and Martha Trefry.Informant is his son Horace.Itgives his birthdate as Oct 17, 1835.
Hope this help place your "orphan".
