12 September 1998
My Uncle John WILLIAMS emigrated to Canada c.1920.
His family visited my father, Daniel WILLIAMS and my sister
Kathleen KILSHAW, but as I was serving in the RAF overseas at the
time, I did not meet them. After my sister died, my
brother in law destroyed her address book. A stepbrother of John
named Roderick WILLIAMS b. 1919, from Tyddyn Ucha Bach, Abergele,
North Wales, emigrated to Canada c.1936 and went originally to
John WILLIAMS. Roderick then went to work on a farm in
Woodstock. When the owners of the farm died, they left the
farm to Roderick who continued farming it until he died on c.1993.
A friend in Canada checked the phone books and discovered the
last listing of Roderick was 1988-89 and the address was Watson
Settlement. On the same listing was an Evan WILLIAMS and a John
WILLIAMS but not the same number as Roderick. These two
were also in the 1990-91 listing. In the 1992 listing JOHN
WILLIAMS appeared alone. In the 1996 listing there was only a
John E. WILLIAMS but in the 1997-98 listing there were no
WILLIAMS' in Watson Settlement. As I am in England, any
information on any of these WILLIAMS'S or their families would be
appreciated. I understand there are a lot of Williams's in the
county. Could someone tell me what is meant by WATSON SETTLEMENT
please.

CUMMINS - I am searching for any background,
origins, history, the like, for the family of my great-great
grandfather, SIMON CUMMINS , son of Matthew Cummins, (sometimes
spelled Commins), and Margaret Somers, who were natives of County
Carlow, Ireland, having settled in St. Stephen, around 1849 .
Simon was born in County Carlow, Ireland, abt. 1820. He
emigrated to New Brunswick in 1852, first settling in St.
Stephen, and later, in response to Bishop Sweeney's call for
enterprising settlers, moved on to Johnville. He was very
prominent in the early history of this town.
Simon was married to MARY
CHAPMAN, (sometimes spelled CHATMAN), whose ancestors I
am also searching. She was the daughter of SIMON CHAPMAN,
and (?) MURPHY, also from County Carlow. Their children were
Matthew, Margaret, Annie, Johanna, (Johanna was my great
grandmother.) Mary Elizabeth, Bridget, Simon Jr.,
Catherine, and Christopher Peter. Simon died in Johnville,
January 18, 1894, his wife, Mary, March 29, 1908.
My research source, to date, has mainly been the extensive
history of Johnville families, An Honourable Independence,
The Irish Catholic Settlers of Johnville, Carleton County, New
Brunswick, written by William Patrick Kilfoil and his
daughter, Mary Kilfoil McDevitt. I have found this book to
be of immeasurable value. I am now seeking to expand
further, upon the history of my own family, in particular,
especially in terms of their ancestral backgrounds, history, and
heritage in Ireland.
Of particular importance to me, also, would be evidence of my grandmother, MARY E., born February 27, 1884, in Plymouth (?), the daughter of JOHANNA CUMMINS (baptized in Charlotte County), and JOHN KELLY ( Richmond Parish, in Johnville).
Johanna and John married in
Johnville May 21, 1883. (Witnesses: James Kelly and Annie Cummins)
Mary McDevitt is unaware of any child of this marriage.
Yet, there must be a record of Mary E. somewhere. Johanna,
her mother, died when my grandmother was two years old, and it is
said (my own dim recollections of family conversations) that Mary
was raised by Johanna's siblings, several of whom moved to
Washburn, Maine, after the marriage of Catherine Cummins to Dr.
Harry McManus.
John, (born July 2, 1854, probably in the Woodstock area), whose
history is also very scant, moved to Butte, Montana, after
Johanna's death. He died in 1935 in Montana.

Later moved to Ludlow, ME. I really need the parents of

in the data files I have collected, some corroborated as correct
and others still need to be verified as correct.

McINTYRE/FLEMMING- Patrick McIntyre is suppose
to have arrived in Canada in 1819 from Ireland, a little poem I
have indicates that his father was John and that the family came
from a place called "Templemore". He might have
had a sister named "Isabelle" no idea who she
might have married. In the 1851 census the name is spelled
"MacINTER". He married Jane Flemming on 22 Jun 1825 at
the Woodstock Anglican Church. Are any of the cemeteries in
that area on microfilm? I'm looking for Patrick's father,
John, also a marriage record for his sister Isabelle. Patrick and
Jane had 11 children Jane, James, Katherine, Mary Rebecca,
Robert, John Carleton, William Henry, Andrew, Thomas, Isabella
Scott and Elizabeth M. Are there ships passengers lists for
that time period?

Higgins of this place, age 18 mos. I am not sure if William

anyone have vital records they could check for the town of
