Hi, you might want to check to "McNabe List' " I believe its called done by Col Bye of a survey of labourers working on the Rideau Canal, Bytown, Ontario circa 1826/28 regarding family members in Ireland who might be interested in coming to Canada. Namely one Abraham Pratt who mentions a brother in law living in Ireland by the name of Storey, Pratt came from the Belturbet area of Cavan and declares a Storey as a brother in law as a possible immigrant, I believe the Storey's did migrate to Canada and settled in the Carleton Co area which includes Ottawa, Its been a long while since I visited my records so please accept this for what it is,recallections from a long while ago.
