Looked them up in the 1901 census which says Michael emigrated in 1849 (so, when he was 14 or 15) and wife Cecilia emigrated in 1837 (so, as a toddler). This means they each came with their parents and married in Ontario. Both described as Roman Catholics. Incidentally, in 1901, they were living with a daughter Loretta C. born 1 Nov 1879 and son Edward M., born 10 November 1881. Michael is a farmer, Edward is a miller. In the birth listings, there is also a son Charles James born 14 April 1880. Found some more of their children in the listings for marriages - Elizabeth, born about 1858, married a Thomas Cunningham born about 1850, on 10 October 1883 in Cobourg. He is son of Thomas and Margaret. Emma Fox, born about 1874, married Miles McCauley born about 1866 from Lindsay. They married July 21 1896 in Cobourg. He is son of John McCauley and Margaret Kehoe. Evaline Fox, born about 1875, married Joseph Grosjean born about 1875 in Hamilton. He is son of John Grosjean and Mary Noland. Evaline married 13 July 1897 in Cobourg. Then we have the Margaret born about 1868 who married James Fox son of Michael Fox and Ellen Roach. They married 19 June 1894 in Cobourg. There is a son Joseph, born about 1866, married Mary Nolan who was born about 1870 and was daughter of Hgh Nolan and Hanora Fitzgerald. Married 21 July 1896 (same day as sister Emma) in Cobourg. Daughter Loretta married Robert Struthers born about 1878, son of James Struthers and Jane Webster. Married in Cobourg 5 November 1902. Son William Fox (born about 1861) married Emilie Holmes, daughter of William and Mary. Marriage was in Cobourg 5 May 1886. So....we have at least 10 kids we know of who were children to the couple.....John, William, Edward, Loretta, Evaline, Margaret, Joseph, Emma, Elizabeth and Charles. First born looks like Elizabeth (born 1858), so the couple Michael and Cecilia were probably married 1857 or so, prior to civil marriage registrations. Mary
