In response to Ken Enright. Though I lived in that area during
that time, I have no recollection of anyone by that name. The
name of Halligan however I have heard many times, spoken by my
mother. I do believe they were in St Malachie. I will ask my
sister Flora, she is the recognized historian in the family.
Good luck finding the info. Sincerely, Margaret Suitor, Mc Bean

This is in responce to Brenda Kaulback. We are surely long lost
cousins. Albert Mc Bean and my grandfather Jonn Mc Bean were
brothers. And how well I remember Aunt Annie and her visits to
my grandmother's home in the summers. We also had visits from
Rumford Maine nearly every summer from Uncle Howard and Aunt
Maisie White,(My grandmother's cousins I believe) they had two
daughter's Muriel and Jean. How wonderful to touch again those
sweet memories from my childhood. email add. margaret_suitor

This
is a
message
for
Margaret
Rose
McBean.
I
believe
that
my grandmother
was
a
friend
of your
mother
and
that
you
and
I
are
related.
I
am not
sure
if I
have
this
quite
right.
Arnold
McBean
was
my grandfather's
nephew,
I
believe.
His
name
is Albert
McBean.
My grandparents
(Annie
Rutherford
[b.
1888]
and
Albert
McBean)
had
a
farm
on the
tenth
range
before
they
moved
to Rumford,
Maine
in around
1918.
We used
to visit
my grandfather's
brother's
children
each
summer
when
we went
to St.
Malachie,
which
I
am supposing
was
your
grandfather
or father?
I
think
there
was
Arnold
and
Clarence
and
maybe
another
brother?
I
remember
my grandmother
speaking
of your
mother.
Maybe
you
can
put
some
of this
together
better
than
I.
I
was
born
in Rumford,
Maine
in 1943.

This is a note for Margaret McBean. I, also was born in 1939. Did you know any Enrights in Frampton
during your growing up years? We are working on our family history, and are related to the Enrights
and Nelligans from Frampton.

I have been doing my husband's family research and recently
found them in Frampton. They are the Haslett family and Scott
family. The first known ancestor was William Haslett who was
married to Mary Maxwell, I believe they came from Armagh Co
Ireland and settled in Frampton where they raised their family.
I found your website incredibly interesting and applaud you for
the wonderful work and dedication you have shared with us.
Thank you so much for all you have done and continue to do.

Interesting site! I am currently researching and Anderw H.
Bulger, formerly of the Royal Newfoundland Regiment (1806-1816);
the Red River Colony, where he was Governor for a year (c1822)
and First Clerk to the Military Secretary in Quebec City (1826?-
1858).
I have just discovered that Bulger 'petitioned the King' for a

I just came upon this site by chance. My aunt wants us to go to
Ireland in 2009 to research our relatives. This is the reason I
began researching our Irish family. I found, on some, Frampton
was their district but I had never heard of it. What a surprise
to find so much information thanks to you Dennis McLane when I
put the name in the computer and here we are. Congratulations
for sharing all that you have learned. My great grandmother was
Julia Hayes married to Eudore Lemieux at Notre Dame de la
Victoire in Levis, Quebec Sept. 22 1880; her parents were
Michael Hayes and Margaret Meagher (Maher) and they were married
May 18, 1860 in St-Patrice Church Quebec City; Michael's parents
were John Hayes and Judith Devereux from Wexford Ireland;
Margaret's parents were William Meagher and Mary Murphy from
Frampton and married May 20, 1823. This was the first time I
had heard of my Murphy side. I then found that Peter Murphy was
her father and Margaret Fampers?? I cannot read the name
properly, was her mother. Hope some of you have some
information for me.There is also a daugter named Mary Meagher
born Dec. 23, 1831
Thanks a lot.

Please note a correction to the message I wrote on 29 July 2008
to Ron Oakley. Towards the bottom of the paragraph, please
substitute Rutherford for Bagley in the following statement. It
should read The Crawfords were somehow connected or at least
knew my Rutherford ancestors ............. Sorry for that
misinformation.

I
tried
to use
Ms.
Haen's
yahoo
email,
but
it bounced
back.
My name is Robert Shearer and I am trying to update and expand the genealogy of my mother's family. I just returned from a visit with her -- she is now 95 and doing pretty well -- during which I got her to talk about her family. Her mother was Claire Maude Sargent, but in doing a little research I think her actual name might have been Clara Maud Sargent (or Sergeant). She was born in 1882 in Frampton QC, the last of nine children (eight daughters and one son). Her parents were Edward Sargent (Sergeant) and Elizabeth Lightfoot Sargent (Sergeant). One of my mother's aunts was Louise, who married George Bagnall. From what I can gather, most if not all of the family was part of the migration from Frampton to Wisconsin, primarily to the Door County area. I have found reference online to five family marriages (including my grandmother) in Jacksonport WI from 1886 through 1903. What I am trying to ascertain is birthdates and birthplaces (perhaps all in Frampton) for the nine children, as well as any information on their parents, Edward and Elizabeth, with respect to when they might have arrived in Frampton and from where. I am curious as to whether Edward and Elizabeth were married abroad and came to Frampton, or whether they came independently and met and married there. They are shown as witnesses to the five marriages in Jacksonport, but I don't know whether they also lived in the area or whether they travelled from Frampton each time And of course, can I find any further information that would allow me to identify from whom Edward and Elizabeth were descended (I believe Elizabeth was born in London and that her father was a sea captain, Captain Lightfoot).
My wife
and
I
visited
Quebec
City
this
past
August
and
we stopped
at the
Literary
and
Historical
Society
to see
if I
could
find
any
evidence
of the
Sargents
having
lived
in that
area.
That was before I uncovered the fact that they were from Frampton.
Would
someone
be willing
to help
a
true
novice
figure
out
what
routes
I
should
take
to accumulate
this
information.
Is it best to visit Frampton (or the QFHS in Montreal) in person and do the research? Or is much of it available (for a fee, I guess) through services contracted online?
I
appreciate
very
much
your
time
in responding
to my
inquiry!!
Thank
you.

An amazingly well-researched, detailed geneological website that
I wish I had found earlier -- like two weeks ago. Would have
turned my trip to Charlottetown upside down by detouring to St.
Edouard which I drove tantalizingly close by on my way down.
But site has raised dilemma for me. It does not list any
Scallens in the census portion.
So I a stuck having to recheck what I thought was sound
information that JAMES SCALLEN (1798-1858)and his wife, ANN
BURNS (1799-1876) are buried there.
Also have information that a MARY O'LEARY (1852), from St.
Edouard, married a THOMAS SCALLEN, of Wexford.
Oh Well! Back to the drawing board.

Great site Dennis! Just this summer I found a birth for Charles
BROWN which was a real find. Up to this point we had not had an
exact date on him - he was of English descent. Now Charles'
mother was Elizabeth HARPER who married Jacob BROWN. I see
that there several HARPERs in the Frampton records and wondered
if they are all the same family and were they all from Charles
and Maria (Welsh) HARPER?
I have completed a book (if you can call it complete with more
history coming in by the minute) for my SMYTH family and the
BROWNs and HARPERs figure into the family quite prominently.
Charles BROWN married my g-g aunt Jane SMYTH d/o John W. and Mary
(Sparkhall) SMYTH. Mary Brown d/o Jane and Charles married
Robert and Mary (Colby) HARPER's son, Charles Eli HARPER.
Charles and Mary lived in Middleville MI and Jane and Charles
BROWN lived in Haldimand Co. where the Jacob BROWN family
settled after leaving Frampton.
If youcan shed any light on the HARPER family or the BROWNs for
me I would appreciate it.
Dennis M. sent me your site. You have no doubt been in touch
with him.

For Ron Oakley:
Yes, St. Paul's Church is still there along with the graveyard
(at least it was in 2000 when we visited and I haven't heard
differently). I photographed and copied a few stones, but
mostly those of people related to me.
I have a transcribed list of the burials there and it doesn't
show either William or Ann Crawford or Ann Foster. It does show:
John, s. William Crawford and Ann Foster d. 14 Aug 1919, G.
F. Hibbard, Min. Also several other Crawfords (one John, s. of
John Crawford, formerly of Kings County Ireland, d. 24 Apr 1888;
another: Robert s. of the late John Crawford Esq. of the parish
of Cappagle, Co Tyrone, Ireland and Margaret McConnell, b. 21 Nov
1813 d. 25 Oct 1851 aged 38 years).
Those two counties aren't near each other, but may give you
clues as far as origins to look in the old country if you have
names. There are other Crawfords as well if you have names you
need checked. I also have a copy of the births from those
Anglican records and there were several of William and Ann's
children born and christened there.
Also, just because names aren't on the list, doesn't mean they
aren't in the cemetery. My 3rd great grandfather is not on the
list, but his stone was there clear as could be. There are gaps
in this record and he fell into one of them.
The Crawfords were somehow connected or at least knew my Bagley
ancestors from some info I have found, so we may even be related
in some shirttail way.
Good luck looking when you get there. It's a beautiful cemetery
on a hill. You can e-mail me if you want more. My e-mail is on
the researchers list.

Found your very interesting site today as I was getting info on
Frampton. My grandmother (Jennie Crawford) was born in Frampton
and I plan to visit the area in the fall. Jennie's parents
(William Crawford and Ann Foster) were married in 1860 in St
Paul's Church, Frampton. Does anyone know if this church still
there, and is there a graveyard nearby?
Thanks,
Ron
