GRAY/GREY
Searching for Thomas E. Gray born July 1872 possibly in Holland Landing,Otario, Canada. He becomes estranged from his family in Boston, MA. I believe he moves to Concord, NH. I do not know where he dies??? It could be NH or Holland Landing. Cemetery records state his body came from Holland Landing, but I question that.
CASEY
Looking for family information on Ellen Casey, born Killarney, Kerry, Ireland 1840. Her parents are James and Mary FORHAN CASEY. Does anyone know anything about her immigration and how she ends up in Boston, MA.?
How do I find what is true
I know for a fact that my grandfather, Bernard Canavan was born in Ireland. He married Catherine Coleman in Concord, New Hampshire in 1891. They moved to Boston and had two children. They remained there the rest of their lives. Bernard is buried with his wife in Mt Bennedict's, West Roxbury, MA. He was buried 28 May 1940, living at 655 Hyde Park Ave. I know his parents are John and Isabella Mccefry Canavan. I have been researchin for almost 10 years now. I can only find about 30 years of census??????????
Canavan Family living in Massachusetts
Trying to connect with anyone that knows Bernard Canavan of Boston. He lived there from 1900 until his death in 1940. He married Catherine Coleman from Concord, NH. His parents were John (1835)and Isabella Mccefry(1840) Canivan from Ireland. Bernard was born in 1862 in Ireland.
I think they may have been related to other Canavan's that lived in the Worcester, MA area. Bernard had two children; Ambrose who only lived until he was 2 and Philip, my grandfather. Philip was born in Boston 1900 and died 1960.
Any info or ideas would be greatly appreciated
