Armagh / Re: Locke, Silas looking for help
« on: Tuesday 23 February 16 01:14 GMT (UK)  »
also since I know Mary Jane Locke married to Robert Marks in Armagh is Francis Locke's sister, is it best to search for her birth and baptismal records tying her to Silas Locke and Margaret Lee? We have been focused on finding proof of a brother William but forgetting that Mary Jane was buried with Francis here in Toronto

Eileenwilson, you mentioned finding a birth notice for a son of Francis Locke on 25 April 1859, where did you find that? I have his baptismal record only not a birth registration or notice. This would be my ggrandfather Silas Robert Locke.

To my knowledge none of them are alive, but if you prefer to edit them out that is not a problem.

I still need help connecting Francis to Armagh and to Silas Locke there. Thought that posting all the original info would help in the search.

page 2 above is correct for all my grandfather Harold Frederick and his siblings information. the problem begins with Francis and his connection to Ireland...nothing here for a marriage to Mary...somehow I think the only one I found anywhere was Robinson which occured in Armagh around 1840...pretty sure this is incorrect Francis and Mary.
Tartaraghan parish seems to be the right Silas if I cannot find the records for Francis form Canada perhaps there is some way to trace descendants from Silas?

Ansimi,
Tartaraghan Parish records are they available on line anywhere? I think this might be the right family, since I seem to be at a standstill in Canadian records I'm trying to reconnect from Irish records. I'm suspecting the marriage of Francis Locke and Mary Robinson is not the correct Francis as dates are off from the birth of their children and from my knowledge he came to Canada single with his sisters. I am hoping to maybe find his baptismal records to confirm the connection.
Since my ggrandfather carried on the Silas name and then Francis was the first born child of his the naming pattern of the firstborn son after grandfather on fathers side seems to fit.
I can't find any proof that William (simcoe ontario) and Francis are brothers, but again the naming pattern seems to follow.
I was able to get some more records from the cemetery for Francis and Mary, but again nothing that connects them to Ireland. No marriage record and |I can't be sure of the census records being the correct ones either. Francis had a nephew William also, but since I can't confirm the relationship to the father it might also be incorrect.
