I am not sure if you are replying to my post about Elizabeth Love born Ireland 1824, but in any case, I have no information about her parents. All I know (or surmise, from what family members have said) is that she was born in Ireland (possibly Co. Cork), and that she died in Hamilton Ontario Canada aged 94, in 1918. Her obituary in the Hamilton Spectator (1918) says she was born in Ireland but had lived in the city (Hamilton) "since she was a little girl." She married a George Wild(e) and had three children in Cayuga, so I am not sure how to read that obit - I do know that she had three children, two daughters and a son (perhaps more, but I don't know). The son, James Wild, had no children; one daughter moved to the U.S.; the other daughter, Margaret Wild(e) who married Harry Saltmark aka Saltmarsh aka Marshall, would be my g-grandmother). Elzabeth Love's husband George was thought to have "died" or "disappeared in the bush" in 1867 (that is what the tombstone in the North Cayuga cemetery "asserts," at least that he died, that year). However, he apparently reappeared in Bay City, Michigan in the 1890s for his dad's funeral; his dad was Stephen Wild married to Sarah Stamp, who had emigrated to Haldimand from northern England, sometime in the late 1830s or early 1840s, and then moved on to Michigan). Unfortunately, the records for that cemetery disappeared in a fire (I visited in the 1980s). Very difficult to trace my Elizabeth Love. I am trying to trace her parents, but after all, maybe she did not come here with her parents, maybe she just got sent over to Canada (perhaps via the U.S., but I don't know) on some untraceable ship in the 1830s. Or a bit later, sometime during the famine. But thank you for sharing. Kind regards, Carolyn Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
