Posted on: ADRIAN Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/surnames/a/d/ADRIAN/queries/6 Surname: ADRAIN, ADRIAN, O'DRAINE ------------------------- I am looking for passenger list with Irish immmigrants, coming to Ontario,Canada around 1835-36-37. Hugh Adrain Jr. born about 1808 . Hugh Adrain Jr I beleive came before his brothers David Adrain born 1813 Ireland and brother Samuel born 1810 Ireland and their mother Elizabeth Adrain born 1784 Ireland. I think that Elizabeth was married to a Hugh Adrain Sr. born 1785 I'm not sure where in Ireland but may have been Co. Cork.. Info I have of a Rober Adrain born Sept 30, 1775 in Carrickfergus. Ireland maybe be a brother to Hugh Sr.(b. 1785) Info I have of a Robert Adrain born Sept 30, 1775 in Carrickfergus. Ireland and Robert died aug. 10, 1843 in New Brunswick, NJ..Robert participated in Irish Rebellion,,,wounded in battle in 1798...fled to America....maybe Robert is a brother to Hugh Sr.(b. 1785). I have search a large number of ship lists but have not come across any of the above names. Adrain,(Adrian) name doesn't seem to be a common name.. from some of the thing I have heard in the past...my Adrain mayb have been from Antrim..I beleive in Northern Ireland...if that is so,,Adrains (Adrian) maybe have moved from N. Ireland to other parts of Ireland....(ie Cork Co..or Antrim in Cork Co ) or I beleive the Adrains in Scotland were from the same family years ago, and when the problems began they moved to a varity of places and then on to North America
