Hi Stephanie; The Ontario County Marriage Registers for Durham County - 1858-1869, shows: William MOORE, 47 of Cavan, born Ireland, s/o William and Mary, married Dec 12, 1868 to Jane CARPENTER, 32 of Cavan, born England, d/o Christopher and Ann. This would not appear to be yours, but it is coincidental! I then found: Edward R. RYREY, 28 of Manvers, born England, s/o George and Catharine, married Feb 7, 1860 to Jane ARGUE, 22 of Manvers, born Ireland, d/o Robert and Elizabeth The 1871 Ontario Census (heads of households only), for Durham County, shows the following: ARGUE ANDREW 51 IRELAND CE ENGLISH LAB Northumb.W\Cobourg.Twn ARGUE WILLIAM 54 IRELAND CE IRISH FARMER Cartwright ARGUE ALEXANDER 26 ONTARIO CE IRISH FARMER Cartwright ARGUE MARGARET 22 ONTARIO CE IRISH FARMER Cartwright ARGUE JOHN 24 ONTARIO CE FARMER Cartwright ARGUE CHARLES 40 ONTARIO NC IRISH FARMER Cavan ARGUE JOHN 64 IRELAND EM IRISH FARMER Darlington ARGUE GEORGE 33 ONTARIO EM IRISH FARMER Darlington ARGUE GEORGE 38 ONTARIO EM IRISH FARMER Manvers ARGUE ROBERT 70 IRELAND EM IRISH WEAVER Manvers ARGUE THOMAS 54 IRELAND CE IRISH FARMER Manvers ARGUE GEORGE 28 IRELAND CE IRISH FARMER Manvers ARGUE THOMAS 30 IRELAND CE IRISH FARMER Manvers ARGUE GEORGE 73 IRELAND CE FARMER Manvers ARGUE JOHN 38 ONTARIO NC IRISH FARMER Manvers ARGUE ANN 18 ONTARIO NC IRISH Manvers ARGUE HENRY 30 IRELAND CE IRISH FARMER Manvers ARGUE WILLIAM 25 IRELAND CE IRISH FARM LAB Manvers ARGUE IRA 41 ONT ARIOWM IRISH FARMER Mariposa I would imagine that some of the above belong to you! According to Beldon's 1878 Map Transcriptions, there were members of the ARGUE family in both Cavan and Manvers. Kind regards Kathy Witheridge Sarnia, Ontario, Canada
