Hi,
I am trying to find information on Elizabeth GEARY who was born about 1831 in Ireland. She immigrated to Canada about 1842 according to the 1911 Canada census.
It seems she married Mathew FERGUSON before 1853 in either Ontario, Canada or New York state. Their first child Sarah Ann Ferguson was born about 1853 in New York state (have not been able to find out exactly where in NY). The family moved back to Lanark County, Ontario, had 5 more children: Robert (Eliza MOSS), Mathew (Agnes CAMERON & Rebecca THOMPSON), George (Fanny ILAN), Elizabeth & William Wesley (Mary CAMERON). Mathew died Lanark County, 1883 but I am not sure about Elizabeth. Daughter Sarah Ann married John CASSELL & eventuallly moved back to Watertown, Jefferson County, NY with their children.
There are two possible fathers for Elizabeth GEARY living in Lanark County who had close connections with the Ferguson family.
William GEARY (1809 Ireland) married Fanny/Ann & had a son named George GEARY born in Ireland. I haven't found any other children for them.
Richard GEARY (1812 Ireland) first married Mary BRADY (I think) & had William, Margaret & George, all born in Ireland. He 2nd married Ruth FOSTER (before 1851) in Lanark County & had Richard, Robert, James, Anne Jane, Martha & Archibald.
If anyone is researching this Geary/Ferguson family or has any additional information on them, I would love to exchange information.
Thank you in advance,
Cindy
