England / Re: Harry Welch - Born 10 Dec 1851 in England
« on: Tuesday 16 February 16 17:29 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you all for the information.

The Sask information, the BC death and the marriage info are all correct.  The Sophia Baker mentioned in the will was my great-grandmother.

Re the birth date discrepancy - the 1891, 1901 and 1916 census all have birth year or estimated birth year as 1852 or 1851 so I am assuming 1911 is in error.

England / Harry Welch - Born 10 Dec 1851 in England
« on: Tuesday 16 February 16 03:26 GMT (UK)  »
Harry Welch was my 2nd great-grandfather. He arrived in Canada from England around 1867-1870; married Louisa Day in Montreal, Quebec, Canada in 1878 and was living in Saskatchewan Canada in 1911 and 1916. Profession was contractor / engineer. It is possible he was with the English army stationed in Quebec.

I am looking for any information that could help me determine where in England he was born - I do not have any location information. UK 1861 census has a number of Harry or Henry Welch of the right age.

Thanks in advance,

Thanks again - it would have made life much easier if there had been more variety in first names back in the day.

Just confirming - if you didn't note otherwise - the place for these events / dates would be Ebberston?

All the best,

We do not have the name of William's first wife.  His sons were Edward (born 1812), John (born 1816), William (born 1821), Abraham (born 1824) and Benjamin (born 1830).

Thanks for the help.

Carlow / Kinch Family - Barragh Parrish, Co Carlow
« on: Thursday 11 February 16 16:26 GMT (UK)  »
I am descended from a William Kinch (Protestant) born around 1790 in Ireland who emigrated to Canada with his sons (one named John) in the 1830's.  We do not have record of their home in Ireland but suspect it could be Co Carlow.  Tithe applotment records from 1825 show a John Kinch and a William Kinch in Kilbrannish, Barragh and a John Kinch in Carrigduff, Barragh.  Any ideas on how I could further research whether these are my ancestors?

I looked for church record availability and it seems the Barragh records were destroyed.  Is that correct?

Thanks for your help,

Any help much appreciated.

Yorkshire (North Riding) / Baker / Harrison in Brompton By Sawdon, Yorkshire
« on: Wednesday 10 February 16 23:15 GMT (UK)  »
I am looking for information on a Rosanna (or Ann) Harrison who married married John Baker around 1800.  John Baker was born Dec 1776 in Brompton by Sawdon.  They had a daughter Mary born about 1804 and baptized in Brompton by Sawdon.  Other children were Elizabeth, George. They emigrated with Mary to Canada and died there.  I have information on John but none on Rosanna.  There is a record of a John Baker marrying a Ann Harrison on Feb 1 1800 in Crambe, York, England but I don't know if that is the same couple.

Any help much appreciated.
