Hi Everyone I just wanted to introduce myself. I have been doing genealogy seriously for a little over a year now. I am a wife, mother, and grandmother. My family came from around the Carelton area on both sides. I am looking for information on Patrick William Brennan who married Isabella Myles, my grandfather's parents. Patrick's family came over from Ireland about 1887. His family included his parents Paul Brennan and Mary Murray, and his siblings James, John, Paul, Timothy, and Mary. They all married and settled in the Carelton County area but I'm not sure where. All the sons worked for the railroad. As a matter of fact Paul was killed in a railroad accident and Patrick lost a leg in an accident. Patrick and Isabella had 7 children; Peter, Annie, Pearl, Veronica (Ronnie), Mildred, Marion, and James (my grandfather). The other branches from that area are my grandmother's parents and families. Her parents are Arthur Damian LeBlanc and Suzannah Devine. Arthur came from Quebec and settled in Fallowfield where he met and married Suzannah. They raised their family in Fallowfield where he was choir master and she worked actively in the Catholic community. All the daughters were in the choir. He apprenticed under the local blacksmith and opened his own business. They had the following children: May Cecilia, Agatha Ellen, Suzannah Clemence, James Arthur, Veronique Bridget Catherine (Vernic), and Agnes Bertha (my grandmother). Suzannah is the daughter of James Devine and Ellen Caroline Barton. I also have Myles from Osgoode but I don't know if that is in Carelton County or not. I any of these names are familiar I would appreciate hearing from you. Thanks for the warm welcome Gwen. I'm glad I found this group.
