As per Rev McDowall's early Hamilton Twp baptisms, Isaac Secor and Mary Simmons had Rebecca born 26 Nov 1787 and Joseph born 22 Oct 1790. Hamilton Twp is Cobourg area of Ontario not near Bath ( Ernestown ) as somebody's online info stated. Another individual stated that Scarborough was in Hope Twp which was also incorrect as Scarborough is in York County ( suburb now of Toronto ) . Hope Twp included Port Hope, my home town which is only seven miles from Cobourg. My interest in the Benns or Benn family is to sort out the records of an Isaac Benn in the same area as my Isaac Dean of 1787 lived. It would be nice to collect all the family histories of the families that lived in Hamilton, Murray Twps as well as others to actually gain more accurate info on the American families that came to Canada. I still seek the parents of Isaac Deen and Ballston is of interest as well due to Dean families that lived there.
