William Cruise b 1814 Ireland

I am descended from William Cruise (born about 1825 at Banagher, Ireland) who married Jane Alexander (born June 22, 1823 at Newtownstewart, Ireland) The married May 10, 1849 at St. John's Church, Norfolk County, Ontario.Family lore suggests that William's parents died when he was quite young and he was raised by an uncle.The Norfolk County Atlas published in 1877 has William owning property in Walsingham Township and Peter Cruise owns property just a few lots away.We have not been able to find William's birth in Ireland and therefore have not been able to connect him to Peter, although it is logical to assume that they are related simply because of the proximity.In addition, there was a James Cruise, a tailor, in St. Thomas who appears to have been related but again, we have made no firm connection.
Does this mesh in any way with your data?
