Canada / Tyrrell family in Canada
« on: Wednesday 08 October 14 18:39 BST (UK) »
Can anyone have more luck than me in tracing any details about this family?
John Thomas Hayes TYRRELL married Julia Jennings, probably about 1840 and probably in Dublin. They were definately Irish. Three daughters, Kathleen, Nora and Ellen were all born in Ireland, sons John and James were born in Canda and the birthplace of two other daughters, Marion and Sophie is unknown.
The family believe, although I haven't found any evidence to support this, that the family were passengers on a ship called The Hyathia and landed on Port Ryde Island, Nova Scotia, Canada, probably about 1850/55. So far I haven't even been able to find a record of the ship!
I'm having difficulty finding any documentary evidence about this family so anything that anyone can come up with would be much appreciated.
