Looking for someone to help me find the parents of Standish and George Acres
Standish showes his birthplace as Birr Kings County, Ireland.
I am attaching what I know about my great great Grandparents, if you counld help me find the Parents to Matilda Bernabe was born 10/1/1839 in Canada, Standish Acres born 1/3/1837 in Tulamore, Burr, Kings County (now called Qffaly County) Leinster Province, Ireland. and George Acres I believe his twin brother.
Standish traveled from Ireland to England and immigrated to Canada July 17, 1857 aboard the ship empire from Liverpool, England occupation shown as a printer. While in Canada he met and married In St. Gabriel Presbyterian Church to Matilda Caroline Bernaby Born 10/01/1839 in Quebec, Canada (Standish name shown as Handeah Acres on Quebec vital Records. There he also attended his brother George Acres wedding to Anne Edwards 12/18/1860 at the Anglican Garrison Church as George was a Staff Sergeant ist Battalion 17Regiment of the foot, Standish stood in as Proxy for Thorcias George Acres. George and Anne had Thomas George Acres born 10/07/1863. George Acres retired from the British Military and in 1901 was living with his wife Anne who died 1902 in Edmonton, Essex, Hartford, England, George died age 70 in 1905 the same year as Standish’s death They were twin brothers.
Standish and Matilda had four children while in Canada, Mary Matilda born 6/25/1860, Mary Margaret born 11/6/1861, Caroline Anne born 5/19/1862 and a son William George Acres died 2/15/1865 Died at 6months of age. Standish moved to Chicago in 1870 he was shown on the 1892 Chicago voter registration as being born in England, very confusing.
