My Family Tree

The children of Thomas and Ann listed are from the PEI Baptismal Index. In the 1861 census, there was a household with 2 people, a male upwards of 60 and a female aged 21-45. There was no married couple in the household. They were Presbyterian. Thomas was born in Ireland, and the woman on the Island - I am assuming this was Thomas and an unmarried daughter.

Thomas was widowed and living with his son in law Henry Phillips in Lot 13 in the 1881 census. There was also a Catherine Sullivan, age 50, who was possibly the unmarried woman in the 1861 census in Thomas' household. There is no daughter of this name in the PEI Baptismal index.
