Hello I am reposting my interests. I have HENRY QUELCH b. 1795 married to MARY PURCELL in Ireland and both born in Ireland. Mary and Henry were married (I know not where, in Ireland) in 1814. Their children JOSEPH QUELCH, b. 1816, JOHN b. 1817, HONORA b. 1818, WILLIAM b. 1821, PATRICK b. 1823, HENRY b. 1825, ELLEN b. 1827, MARY b.1829, EDWARD b. 1832, and MARGARET b. 1834. Joseph was born in Ireland (I don't know where in Ireland) but all the rest of the above children were born in SHRAGH, JOHNSTOWN, LAOIS COUNTY, IRELAND. I also have JOHN QUELCH b. 1786 in Ireland (sorry don't know where) married to MARY LYNCH in Ireland about 1816. They had HENRY QUELCH possibly born in Ireland in 1817 and HELEN QUELCH b.1819, JOSEPH QUELCH b. 1821, MARQUERITE QUELCH b. 1823 and WILLIAM b. about 1826 all born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. I do not know for sure but given the surname QUELCH is so hard to track in Ireland I suspect JOHN QUELCH b.1876 and HENRY QUELCH b. 1785 may have been brothers. I also think they may be brothers because they both moved to Montreal, Quebec, Canada and many of their children and descendants of these share common names. WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF POSSIBLE IS- Does any one know of MARY PURCELL'S or MARY LYNCH'S parents or siblings? Is it possible HENRY QUELCH b. 1795 or JOHN QUELCH b 1786 parents came from England and if so does anyone know where they came from? Any help would be appreciated and I am sorry I do not know any more than I do. Judy in Canada
