I so enjoyed Raj. Sorry to hear the news. I pray for peace and comfort for the family at this time. She was a pleasure to talk to and I enjoyed doing genealogy searches with her. I will miss her.

I had seen those posts, and had that information in my genealogy program.  I didn't know the Old Protestant Burying ground and Charlottetown, Cemetery 1, Stone 131, Elm Avenue, St. Paul's Anglican Church were one and the same.

I emailed the archives in PEI, and got the following response:

Dear Ms. Hensley,

The death record you identified is from the St. Paul's Anglican Church records (Acc3069/2).  Unfortunately, the church record does not include parents' names or the cause of death.  I've transcribed the record below:

 "Isaac Barrett of the North River, sawyer, died August 22nd, 1830, buried on the 24th, age 32 years.  [signed] L. C. Jenkins"
(Acc3069/2, St. Paul's Anglican Church, Burials, 1827-1947)

 I also checked our Master Name Index for references to Isaac Barrett and found a few items that might be of interest:

 Cemetery transcript

"Isaac Barrett, d. Aug. 22, 1830, Age 32"
(Charlottetown, Cemetery 1, Stone 131, Elm Avenue, St. Paul's Anglican Church)

 Barrett, Isaac
m. 23 October 1828 by Rev. L. C. Jenkins
s. Ann Margaret Heartz
d. 22 August 1830
bur. 24 August 1830

(From Master Name Index; no source given)

 Barrett, Isaac, 1798-22 August 1830
m. Ann Margt. Heartz aet. 1828
children: Ann Elizath., b. 1 September 1830 ; Benjamin Wm., b. 16 April 1829
(Charlottetown Manuscript, pg. 19)

 I hope this information is helpful.  If you would still like a copy of the church death/burial record, please forward your complete mailing address.  The cost for microfilm prints is $0.50 per page (plus tax) and there is a minimum mailout fee is $5.00 (plus tax).

 Sincerely,

I got his burial place, which I didn't know before.  It was very kind for Jannah to look this information up for me.  Thank you too for the help I am getting here.

I am not sure where Isaac was born actually.  I got the Tolland, Cornwall from another person also trying to research this family.  I found a John Barrett and Elizabeth Heckleton who came to PEI on the ship "Preston" that left Yarmouth on May 4 1832 and arrived in Charlottetown on May 24 1832.  This family settled in Wheatley River, which is where my Isaac married.  John and Elizabeth would have been the right age to be his parents.  James Barrett who married Ann Carver would be the right age to be a brother to Isaac.  Now if I could only prove it.  I have considered that Isaac may have been born right in PEI.  All I have for him is a birth date of 1798, which came from The Island Register.  I found his death of 22 Aug 1830 in North River on the register of St. John's Anglican Church, Charlottetown.

I found the following for an Isaac Barrett, but to this point have not confirmed that this is my Isaac:
Pallot's Baptism Index for England: 1780 - 1837
about Isaac Barrett Name: Isaac Barrett
Baptism Date: Dec 1799
Parent 1: John Barrett
Parent 2: MaryBarrett 
Parish: Talland
County: Cornwall

I also have his death as :
SOURCE: pre-1906 Death Index St. Paul's Anglican Church, Charlottetown
Name: Isaac Barrett
Age: 32
Residence: North River
Date of Death: 22 Aug 1830

I have two children listed to date.  They are Ann Elizabeth born 1 Sep 1830 Lot 32, and Benjamin William b. 16 Apr 1829 also Lot 32.  Isaac died a month before his daughter Ann was born.  His wife, Ann Margaret (Heartz) remarried Patrick Duffey 3 Dec 1835 and had several more children.  I would love to be able to prove that the birth listed on Pallot's is my Isaac.  I am just not sure how to continue with it.

I wondered if there were records somewhere for the late 1700's re Immigration to PEI?  I have an ancestor who came to PEI around 1786.

Ok, so I am back on the Barrett Trail.  I found all the birth and baptism records and many marriage records on the Public Archives and Records website.  I am still however looking for the birth and parents of Isaac Barrett.  He was born approximately 1798 possibly in Talland, Cornwall, England.  That is all I have on him except his marriage and children.  Were there records kept of immigrations that early to PEI?  He would have come there between 1798 and 1828 where he marries in Wheatley River, Queens, PEI.

Thanks again.
