I'm looking for info on family of Thomas Gill and Catherine Corcoran (or Curran) and also the children of Catherine's second marriage to Jeremiah Foley. (Roman Catholics) What I know is that Thomas and Catherine came to Springfield, Toronto Twp (now Mississauga) from Ireland about 1833-4. They had 7 children altogether...one (Patrick, my ggf) born enroute in Boston and John, Thomas, Catherine, Susannah, William and Margaret born in Peel. (I have marriage/death info for William and Thomas jr) Thomas died in 1846 and in 1850 Catherine married Jeremiah Foley and had at least 3 more children. They were Jeremiah/Michael Foley b 1850, Elizabeth Foley, Sarah Foley both born mid 1850's. (1851 and 1861 Censuses) I am interested in Birth/Baptism and Marriage info for Gill children (except William and Thomas jr) and in particular for the Foley children, Wondering where else I might find this kind of RC info for the former Springfield area. Any help appreciated Thanks Eve Gill Roberts
Hello Eve. I grew up with Shirley, Barbara and Margaret Gill, daughters of Howard Gill, whom I believe is descended from this couple. I still live in Springfield (called Erindale Village when we were children) and am still in contact with Shirley and Margaret. Barbara died several years ago. If you wish me to act as mediary I would be happy to do so. Shir;ey and I were and still are good friends, and we went to school together also. Just let me know. If you have specific questions, I could try to get the answers for you. Yours truly, Mary (Barker) Wilkinson -----Original Message----- From: can-ont-peel-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:can-ont-peel-bounces@rootsweb.com]On Behalf Of Eve Roberts Sent: Sunday, January 14, 2007 1:59 PM To: CAN-ONT-PEEL@rootsweb.com Subject: [CAN-ONT-PEEL] Surnames GILL and FOLEY I'm looking for info on family of Thomas Gill and Catherine Corcoran (or Curran) and also the children of Catherine's second marriage to Jeremiah Foley.
