Monaghan / Matilda Steinson and Patrick Connolly elopement
« on: Tuesday 25 April 17 19:15 BST (UK)  »
Matilda Steinson was born around 1828 we believe in County Monaghan.  She was supposedly the daughter of a wealthy farmer.  She eloped with a farm hand, Patrick Connolly, but was chased by her father and brothers.  They escaped and settled on Prince Edward Island Canada. 

Trying to determine if there were wealthy landowners named Steinson or Stinton around Castle Leslie area in the 1830 and 1840's. He was Catholic, she might have been Church of Ireland
