Hello I am hoping someone can give me some advice. My ggg grandfather WEIR emigrated from County Monaghan about 1837 according to his son's obituary. The family settled in or near Cobourg, Ontario, Canada. The son's obituary states his father's first name was Lancott. Various census and records for the Cobourg area show the names Lancelot, Lancit and Salanty WEIR. I'm pretty sure the first two are the same person and probably my ancestor, but does anyone know anything about the origins of the given name Salanty? Also anyone else tracing WEIRs in Monaghan? I'd love to know where in the county they were from. Lancott's wife's name was Ann. Patty
