His son, Elijah, was brother to the Samuel you mentioned who married Elizabeth Mayes and Elijah was my second great grandfather. I know I've seen the Hersey/Fanjoy connection but I can't put my hands on it right now. I was in contact with a Fanjoy on the NB or NS list, again I can't remember who - Emery maybe, some time ago. I have not been doing genealogy this summer as my daughter had surgery, my son was married, etc. I am hoping I will be able to get back to it this fall. Your name sounds familiar. Perhaps we have been in contact before. You are right that the family came to Yarmouth, NS (in 1763) from Pembroke, MA. They go back to the William you mentioned who was married to Elizabeth Croade. Samuel was the only one to leave NS in about 1776 and go to Gagetown. Most of his children stayed in NB but my line went back to ME in 1832 and my grandfather was born in Littleton, ME. I would be interested to see where your Fanjoy connects as I don't find it in the index to The Hersey Family by Stephen Hersey who latest version is dated 2000. We've been waiting for him to do an update but so far, he hasn't. Thanks, Marilyn P.S. It's funny about the Briggs name you mentioned because my mother-in-law had maternal grandparents with the name Briggs but they came from RI and possibly earlier from MA.

Marilyn Elizabeth Hersey b 1812 the d/o samuel b 1776 s/o Samuel Hersey and Lydia Clarke who m 21 April 1774 in Yarmouth Nova Scotia he was the son of David Hersey and Susannah Ramsdell. this Samuel was b abt 1755 in Pembroke Ma.

Oh my, I know I was into the Gagetown pages. I also have Hersey in my Porter, Dickinson, Fanjoy, Chase family. Can't remember which one now. But her family came from Massachusetts A samuel Hersey was granted lot #31 for 123 acres near Jemseg River on Grand Lake in Canning Queens Co., NB source is NB Land Grants 128. In the book Pioneers of Massachusetts there is a William Hersey in Hingham, Ma 1638 and he had a dau Elicabeth who m Moses Gilman, Judith m Humphrey Wilson. he di 1658 wife was Elizabeth, ch. William John James Frances Elizabeth Judith, gr. ch. John Croade and William Hersie. Cousin John Farrington, Thomas Marsh and son in law Richard Croade. I will check and see who my Hersey is.

Hi all, I trying to find out anything on this family of Edward CHARTERS of Dumfries, York County. He was born in Dumfrieshire,Scotland abt 1802.He married Susanna BRODIE born Apr 03 1810,on June 04 1830 in Lesmahagow.Lanark Scotland. They left Scotland sometime after 1832 Edward died at age 81 Feb 04 1882 and Susanna died Oct 10 1891 at age 81.They are both resting at Barony Cemetery in York County. I have found them on the 1861 Dumfries Parish of York County Census. Edward CHARTERS male head,59,Scotland,Farmer,Presbyterian. Susanna CHARTERS Female,Wife,51,Scotland,Presbyterian. John M.Rogerson Male,Son of Sister,24,Scotland,Carver of Wood,Presbyterian. Susannna Charters HUTCHINSON,female,wife's sister's daughter,19,native,Presbyterian. Silas JONES Male,Servant,20,native,General Labourer,Baptist. His Brother was living next door. Robert CHARTERS male,Head,50,Scotland,farmer,Presbyterian(he died June 09 1869 and is buried at Lake George United.) Eliza CHARTERS female,wife,48,England,Presbyterian.(she died at age 74 march 4,1884 is buried at Lake George United.) Mary Jane CHARTERS female,20,daughter,England,Presbyterian. (she went on to marry an Irish man John Scott born abt 1840.He died abt 1917 and Mary was born Aug 30 1840 in Manchester,England,she died at 52 in 1892 in York County.) William ROGERSON,male,sister's son,17,Scotland,Presbyterian,General Labourer. Edward CHARTERS in the 1881 Dumfries census was noted as a Carver.He worked on the famous ship the Marco Polo which was built in 1851 in St.John.In the New Brunswick Museum in St.John there is a Stern Carving from this ship that was attributed to Edward CHARTERS.He all so helped build the historic Wilmot United church that was constructed in 1852 is in Downtown Fredericton.The construction crew who erected the building was comprised of local ship's carpenters whose work on the wooden vaulting echoes that on the bows of wooden ships.The spire ascended 199 feet and was further extended by a 7 foot upward-pointings hand carved in wood by Edward CHARTERS.It was this symbol that caused the soldiers of a British Regiment stationed in the city to nickname the church"Thumbs Up" His nephew John ROGERSON who was living with him in 1861, was all so a great carver and to this day his work can still be seen in the city of St.John.One of his works was the Young Memorial in King's Square,St.John.John ROGERSON was born abt 1837 in Scotland and died Feb 26,1925 in St.John. All so Living with Edward CHARTERS in 1861 was his niece Susanna Charters HUTCHINSON born abt 1843.Her mother was Elizabeth HUTCHINSON nee BRODIE,the sister of Susanna CHARTERS.

SALMON died Jan 01 1922 in Restigouche Country.She worked as a Post Mistress from Jan 07 1880 to Jan 09 1892 in Chipman Corner's.Queens County.Both James and Susan SALMON are buried in the Redbank Cemetery,Queens County Cemetery on McLeod Street,Chipman.

Irene, Thanks for replying to my email and I hope all is well now! I am researching the BIRD family who settled around Birdtown. I have a Francis BIRD, b abt 1843 or 1847, in Keswick who married Harriet YERXA, b abt 1850. It is possible Harriet is the daughter of a James YERXA. Francis and Harriet had the following children: Elizabeth Day BIRD, b abt 1872, James A. BIRD, b abt 1873, Woodward BIRD, b abt 1875, and Mary BIRD, b abt 1881. Do you have any information on Harriet YERXA? Thanks, Jane http://www.genquest.ca/bird/home.html Jane, > > Sorry I'm so late.

Hi Mike, Thank you. I am looking into information on Margaret Elizabeth Hawksley, his possible sister. According to the 1880 census, her father was born in Canada, her mother in Ireland. So if Margaret and John are related, then their grandfather may have been a loyalist, perhaps. Once I have tracked all the info I can on the descendants of Margaret Hawksley and Isaac Adams, I hope to get in contact with someone of that family. But it looks like I'll try to head up to Fredericton in August!
