Dear Cousin Karen Beatty,
I am so glad you are in Wexford- standing on the beach at Blackwater
is incomparable!!! You must pass Vinegar Hill to get there- the
battle was immortalized in Frampton Tress and American Civil war
songs-
I hope you have a great time!
Harriet

Greetings to all my Frampton Irish cousins. I'm in Cork Ire
right now and headed this morning to County Wexford. It's been
my life dream to walk the land of my ancestors. I've twice been
to Frampton and now Wexford. This is amazing. Thanks Denny for
all your help.
Karen - (Miles Murphy and many more)

This is for Chris Drenan. I have photos of the headstones for
Hugh Hurley, died 1901 and his wife Sarah Ann Sargeant, died
1889. I also have one for Hugh Hurley, died 1879, age 80 years
and his wife Jane Jackson, died 1873. These were from
Springbrook Anglican Cemetery.

For Cindy Donohue: thank you so much for photographing all those
headstones! All your efforts will be much appreciated by many
who are researching in the area. Could you please post here

My granddaughter and I have just returned from a trip to
Frampton and St-Malachie. We photographed all the headstones in
the Catholic and Anglican Cemeteries in both towns. The photos
will eventually be on the website Canadian Grave Marker Gallery.
If anyone is interested in any headstone photos please let me
know. ceeceedon@gmail.com

For Chris Drenan and P Bassman: I do have more info on some of
the Hodgson and Sargeant families. Sarah Ann's brother, Edward
had a daughter who married into my Bagnall family. Sarah Ann's
sister, Maria married William Harper and their daughter also
married into the Bagnall family. I'd be glad to share that info
and would like to get more info on Sarah Ann's family if
possible.
I believe Sarah Ann's birthdate is 15 Dec 1835--I just checked
the Drouin record and though the index says 1836, the actual
record says 1835 (oops).
Dennis McLane has more info on the family relationships as well
and could probably research that for you in the Notaire
records. John Hodgson Sr. left a pretty detailed will according
to Dennis's index.
Please contact me at ginnyh_0608@charter.net or
ginnyh999@yahoo.com. Thanks.

I was in St. Malachie last month for a small family reunion, and
stayed at the ski lodge. Of course the ski runs are closed but
we had a very good time at Auberge la Crapaudiere, hosted by M.
Jean Arnoux and his lovely wife, Lawrence.
There are twelve rooms there, and while not plush, they are
large, clean and comfortable and the bathrooms are brand new.
Each room is individually temperature controlled.
We had dinner in their dining room which featured three choices
of entrees. It was a very pleasant stop and would be a perfect
place for a business meeting or family reunion.
Their phone number is 418-642-2472.

To Chris Drenan:
The name Sargeant twigged a memory and checking back thru my tree
I found the reference. Your Sarah Ann was born to John Sargeant
and Hanna Hodgson at Frampton Dec 15 1836 and was baptized Jan 28
1836 at Frampton. John Sargeant died sometime before 1850 and
Hannah then married into my Maines/Manes line.If you want more
info re the Hodgson line let me know.

Thank you for this wonderful and valued website. I found it
today while searching for our Great-Grandfather Hugh Henry
Hurley's (b. 1858-d. 1923)origins. I have finally located him
as the eldest of nine children on the 1881 census in Ste-
Edouard, Dorchester, Quebec with his parents: Hugh Hurley (b.
1830-d. 1899) and Sarah Ann Sargent Hurley (b. 1834-d. 1901).
Notes from a very distant cousin also indicated that the elder
Hugh's father was named Hugh as well, and had settled in Quebec
after receiving a land grant in 1828. I have not as yet located
the parents of Sarah Ann Sargent, although the 1881 census
indicates her birthplace as Quebec as well.
They are all listed on the census as Episcopal so I am guessing
that Springbook Church is a likely place to start? I would like
to find the elder Hugh's burial site as well as learn more about
their lives in Canada. I don't have much, but I would love to
share what I have on Hugh Henry. (Hugh Henry is buried in
Columbus, Ohio - after having emigrated to Ohio through Manitoba
and Illinois where he studied to become a Baptist minister.) I
would love to hear from anyone who has information on these
particular Hurley-Sargent families.
Keep up the good work - this site is so informative!

While collecting and scanning old Frampton photographs related to the Hennessey and Magher
families, I happened upon a wedding photograph believed to have been taken around 1909 in rural
Frampton showing a gathering of roughly 100 people. A couple of my relatives are guessing that
the husband and wife in the front-center of the photograph are Martin and Catherine Magher. None
of the others have been identified. Should someone with an elderly relative who grew up in
Frampton perhaps be able to identify any of those in the photo, please send me your e-mail
address, and I will send via the web an electronic copy of the photo for identity purposes. Michael
McGuire. mjmframpton@google.com

For Robert Hickey of Dalhousie. The Hickeys in St. Malachie were
related, not closely, to my family, the McGraths. If you have
any specific questions, I might be able to help you. I think I
even have a picture of a Tom Hickey, probably the one who died in
1952. I'll be back to St. Malachie in July and can probably find
out from others what I don't know myself. Send me a note at
daydame@q.com. I'll see if I can help.

Dennis, this is a fantastic site that I have visited several
times but my last reference was when a nephew Whealan (Buddy)
Morin from Dubai sent me your reference today. He is the son of
my sister Mary Whealan who married Lewis Morin and had three
boys: Dan(Toronto) Majella (Edmonton) and Buddy.
Many references have been made to my families: Whealan and
Brennan. My brother-in-law Lewis Morin and his wife Mary did alot
of research on Frmapton especially for the feasts in 1975. they
were active in the renovation of Christ's Church in 1975: the
beaufil site mentioned in several e-mails. My three sisters who
became nuns are mentioned in Father Enright's article. I was born
in Frampton and lived there until I had to go work in Quebec so
anything about Frampton is of interest to me. I have kept close
relationship with the present residents, one of which is JoAnn
Hennessey who was my secretary for a number of years»: a
descendant of the Hennessey-Walsh families. I still spend time
in Frampton. Thanks for your wonderful site and wish you the
best to keep going. God bless, Dennis.
