Cavan / MARTIN, Philip & MCMAHON, Mary
« on: Wednesday 24 April 19 14:36 BST (UK) »
Looking for some help finding a marriage record for Philip Martin (b. abt 1826) and Mary McMahon (b. abt. 1818). I am hoping to get some information from their marriage record to continue with our family tree.
As far I can tell they immigrated to Toronto, Canada in 1872, with their 4 children (Michael, Patrick, Mary and Philip). From what I can gather, all the children were born in Cavan, Ireland.
Mary died 6 Aug 1883 and then Philip died 25 May 1895. This information comes from their headstone at Saint Michael's Cemetery in Toronto, Canada (https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/66772490). They both originated from Ireland. It states that Mary is from Co. Cavan on the headstone, but not sure about Philip. It does say he is from Dublin, Ireland on the information from Find a Grave website but I have no information to confirm that. I also can't seem to find a Ontario death record for either of them.
The only census I have is of 1891 in Toronto, Canada of Philip (widowed) living with his daughter's family (Mary Mcdonald).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I seem to be stuck without any further information regarding Philip and Mary's parents.

Canada / Clarification on Canada, City and Area Directories - COMPLETED
« on: Wednesday 20 December 17 17:40 GMT (UK) »
I just wanted to get some clarification on a certain listing I came across. I have attached the image of the listing. It lists Lacy Mrs. Mary, wid Patrick. Does this mean that Patrick is still living and is listed along with Mary but as a widow? Or is it just listing Mary stating she is a widow of her husband Patrick?
Thank you for any info!

Pembrokeshire Lookup Requests / Milford Haven - Amy BROWNE
« on: Thursday 05 January 17 16:36 GMT (UK) »
Was hoping someone would be able to help me find some information on what would be my 2nd great-grandmother Amy Browne. For the longest time I only knew she was born in Wales, but finally found information on a U.S./Canada border crossing form that her place of birth was Milford Haven, Wales. Her birth year seems to vary from census to census; from 1867-1869. The only parent I have information on is her father from her marriage certificate. His name is Charles Eugene Frances Browne. I can't seem to find any information on her before her marriage to David Neil McMillan on Jan 13, 1890 in Londonderry, Northern Ireland. Any information or direction would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,

« on: Thursday 05 January 17 14:46 GMT (UK) »
Having a hard time trying to read what the destination on the border crossing form says. I am pretty sure it starts off with "Mr. McDonald..." but I can't quite understand the rest. Any help would be appreciated.

Huntingdonshire Lookup Requests / GAUNT, Richard abt 1786
« on: Saturday 12 September 15 01:09 BST (UK) »
I am looking to find birth records for Richard Gaunt born abt 1786 in Great Staughton, Huntingdonshire. I have his marriage record for 1807 to Sarah Ross and census for the years 1841, 1851, 1861, and 1871 until his death in 1873. All the censuses have him living in Godmanchester, Huntindonshire. I would really like to find out who his parents were so I can continue to follow the Gaunt name. Thank you!
