Dear list members, I am unsubscribing until I find more info on my Jones family in Port Perry. Margaret died there in Dec 25 1887. Alonzo W. Jones was her husband and he died in 1903. Arwilda May their only child was born May 13, 1869/70 possibly in Picton. Arwilda was the only Grandma my mother ever knew. (Her other Grandma was from Sweden, and then later the US, but she never met her, unable to travel and died before my mom was able to travel there to see her. Arwilda died on my Mom's birthday and she always felt bad about that. I have an 1868 marriage record, and a very old picture from about 1870 of Alonzo her father, no photo known of her mother or of Arwilda when young. I want to thank everyone that tried to help. I have McMahon's that are not mine, but thought might help someone else. I found a Mcmahon that is not mine. I have been told that: In a book called "Flight from Famine" by Donald MacKay, which > > tells stories of the Irish coming to Canada. There is one mention > > to a Mrs. Cornelius McMahon who suffered a miscarriage whilst on > > board the 'Waterloo', which left Ireland on or about May, 1839. someone else was kind enough to send a message about a Cornelius, plus some other names may have been children, or may have been adults NO AGES given on the cut and paste from a passenger list that was sent to me. a lookup on CD 354 (Passenger and Immigration Lists Index > 1538-1940) and > found the following McMahons going to Canada in 1839--Cornelius, Kitty, > Michael, Nelly, Stephen and Thomas.
