    3. Can anyone help this woman find Cornelius Fox? I'm new to researching in Ireland-I know there are many more out there with much more experience in that part of the world! Thanks! ----- Original Message ----- From: Erik & Marion Andersson To: Heather Bilodeau Sent: Thursday, October 12, 2000 11:47 PM Subject: Re: Cornelius Fox Hi Heather! Thank you for your try in helping me to find my ancestor, it is like they are trying to hide this person, but I hope to break thru the wall soon. Regarding the information you found from the LDS records, it is not exactly correct, as I have found the name of the ship he evidently came on to Boston Nov. 15, 1766 and he had only boarded the ship in Cork, Ireland. I don't know the names of his parents, but I know he was married in Nova Scotia and had several children, can give you the names if you think it will help in finding him. Where would he have gotten his education that prepared him for being a teacher, first in Sydney Cape Breton and later assigned by the SPG as their schoolmaster in Cornwallis, Nova Scotia, would he have gotten it from some person in his area? Perhaps the Prerogative Wills of Ireland ( for the Fox family) for Longford, Moyvore, King's County and Foxhall may give me the answer if I can find them soon. As I have been told that he was from the Sionnach Clan in Ireland, I think that these wills may be of help. Again, thanks for your help in this search, Sincerely, Marion Andersson
