Sligo / Patrick Cunningham
« on: Tuesday 21 April 20 20:51 BST (UK)  »
Looking for birth family information on Patrick Cunningham, born 28 Feb 1818.
Family history passed down:
Patrick came to the USA from Sligo in 1833, when he was 15.  (He may have been a stowaway, as we've not found him listed on any passenger list) He came to Topsham, Vermont, to the home of a man he had known in Ireland, McAlvie. ( 1940 census, the only spelling that comes close is Daniel McCalloway. On his gravestone it is McCalvey.)
Patrick married Jerusha Avery in 1841. They had 7 children.  He died in a logging accident Jan 1853.

Down / James Bailie, Kircubbin

Looking for info on James Bailie b about 1760, his wife, parents, siblings.
I believe there were 15 children:  John, Ann, Elizabeth, Esther, Hugh,  James McCullock, Jane, Jane, Jane, Margaret, Mary, Mary, Robert, William, and James.

John was born about 22 Mar 1791 in Kircubbin, and married Mary Anne McMaster in 1819. They had 7 children all born in the 1820s and 1830s, County Down.  Mary was born  14 Jul 1795, perhaps Ballycranmore.  They emigrated to Leeds, Quebec, Canada where they were given one square mile tract on which to live and improve by opening and farming.

Looking for info on the family in Ireland.

Derry (Londonderry) / William Carter
« on: Tuesday 21 April 20 14:53 BST (UK)  »
Looking for family information on William Carter, born abt 1812.  Emigrated to Quebec, Canada.  He is on the April 26, 1833 passenger list for the Royal William, Londonderry to New York, New York, USA.

This is all we have on his Ireland origins.
His marriage and death certificates just say Ireland' as place of birth.

Would love to know siblings, parents, or to be in touch with living relations.
