Hello Lisa, This is all very interesting Yes, we may have a connection. Edward's
wife Caroline Johnson Castle gave birth to my great grandmother Louisa Castle Greenfield
in 1843 in Kingston Quebec Canada. They were living in Chicago at the time and she would
have had to have made the trip from Chicago to Kingston. I am also assuming she did this
via the Great Lakes but of course I'm not sure. Caroline is my biggest mystery. Her
tombstone in Chicago says she was born in Norwich Conn in 1810 and died Jan 27, 1847. I
have thus far been unsuccessful in proving her father and mother but have always wondered
what she was doing in Quebec Canada where she gave birth. This may be the connection. My
