My GG grandfather...born May c.26, 1794 in County Monaghan or maybe Armagh. He had a sister-in-law Nancy Whitcraft with no other info on her other than Whitcrafts/Whitcrofts came from Clontibret...? Do not know his parents names. He was a "carpenter/cabinet-coffin maker". It is said he came from "near Castleblayney"...have had nothing to confirm this. He had sons William born 1825, Samuel, born 1827, Alexander "Sandy", born 1828, and another son(no name) , born. ?, and daughters Nancy, born 1829, & and Mary, born 1837. William 1794 left no paper trail, nor did his children re him.
All of them left Ireland and sailed for Canada in 1841.
