Dorey family

[Whiskey38]

I'm trying to fill in the family tree going back from Percy Dorey married to Georgina Gotchier, their children were Paul, Edwin, Edith, Ralph, June, and Earl. This part of the family was from Ganaoque Ontario. Any information further back would be great. I'm Junes grand daughter

Hi June's granddaughter. 

Would you have any dates of birth please, and was Percy born in Ontario?  Have you found them on any census or have you tried other sites (so we don't duplicate efforts)?  Are you interested in Georgina's information as well?

Was Percy born April 1892?  There was a Percy Dorey living in Gananoque who was 19 on the 1911 census.  You can view the actual image.  If this was him (and not a nephew or grandson, or some other relation), the census shows his parents and siblings:

I believe that is him, and any information on Georgina is welcome as well. My name is Brandy.

I was looking at the 1901 census where he was 7 yrs old, can we also follow his father Sevare ( Sylvester) and mother Liza (Eliza Ann)  back as well?

in my digging I came across a Gifford Dorey in a 1852 census for what was Canada east) who was a parson and born in Germany, but not sure if he is tied into this part of the family  yet or not.

Hi Brandy, before we take the time to follow this Percy's family, you mentioned you "think it is him."  Would you know your great grandfather's date of birth, please, or anything else about him, so we can make sure we are following the correct family?  Since his children have more recent dates of birth, it would not be a good idea to include any of their information.    Also, would you know what your great grandfather's occupation was (in case he had the same occupation as his father)?

In case you don't know, there are a lot of Dorey individuals buried in St. John's Roman Catholic Cemetery, Gananoque, including Percy (Percival).

Unfortunately, this is only an index, so it doesn't give any dates.

This site has at least Percival's headstone information:

There may be additional Dorey headstones (not taking the time to look).
