It is possible that Martha found out early that her marriage was bigamist and not valid and left Eric/Brehnin and returned to Picton ON where she had been born and perhaps her parents and relatives still lived. So they had no progeny. when did Eric's daughter go to Canada? You can look up Armstrongs in Canada 411 and write the 231 that live in NS and inquire if they are the descendants. Also ask on the Pictou Message Board if anyone knows of descendants. You can also look up the name of the newspaper in Sellarton or new Glasgow and write a letter asking about descendants. Jill is Brehnin as given on the marriage record the Welsh for Eric? Or did he give a false name at the marriage. bob gillis > > As it was a neighbour who was the informant of Eric's death I'm assuming > that he had no family in the vicinity, at the time of his death.
