Hi Joan,
Been doing some research on the Wickhams and have come across your Kirkbrides....
Alexander Kirbride born Sept 12 1822 born England but states a Scottish nationality?Methodist immigrated from England 1848.I found him in 1851 in Wawanosh twp Huron County then 1901 in Goderich Town, Huron County.He was married to a Charlotte Sophia Lomas b. Sept 13 1855 England and they were probably married there as her immigration is listed as the same year.
Children that I found are:
Mary Anne
William
George
and probably more
William b. Nov 25 1857 married a Margaret (Maggie) Dreary
Children:
William L
Lillie
George
Agnes
Nina
Lettia P.
Irene
Arnold
and there may be more
I belive Alexander also had a sister Nancy who married a Thomas Wickham and a sister Jane who married a John Nairn...
Buried in the Maitland Cemetery in Goderich is
Nancy Wickham
Jane Kirkbride
Alex Kirkbride and wife
George Kirkbride..died in infancy
I have more dates and info if you want to contact me directly...I would love to find out more about the Kirkbrides.
