Hi Steve,
My name is Greg Monette and I live in Oswego, Oswego County, NY(109 miles
from Brockville).
I have been to Ontario doing research on my Cavanaugh line. My
great-grandfather was James Cavanagh. He married Julia Burns from the
Brockville area.
James was born in Ireland, around 1838-1840 and Julia was born in Brockville
about 1841. I have had difficulty finding information in Ontario. I do know
that Julia's father, Patrick, is buried in St. James Cemetery in Ballycanoe,
Ontario. Her mother, who emigrated here with Julia, is buried in Syracuse,
Onondaga County, New York.
The Cavanaugh research has been even more difficult. I have no proof that
James lived in Ontario. I can not find any evidence of their marriage(they
were Catholic). I do know that Julia emigrated to
Oswego, NY about 1862-1864. She emigrated with her sister, Elizabeth, who
was married to James Flood.
James Cavanagh(his early spelling) has been my major roadblock. I have no
information on his birth, marriage or death.
This probably does not help you but I would like to stay in tough. I have
other Cavanaugh information from Ontario but not sure if it is my family.
Reply if you can.
Greg

Hello to my many cousins around the world. My name is Steven
Cavanaugh
and I am located in Ontario, Canada.
I am currently working on a pet project of my own and I would like to ask
for your help in this very large, ongoing project.
I have been, for the last 5 years gathering all Cav's/Kav's that have ever
passed through Canada, into one large data base,
in hopes of connecting the dots to the various lines we are already aware
off. So if you have any ancestors that passed
by this part of the world on their way to where ever, I sure would like to
compare notes in possible.
Currently my data base can be found on
ROOTSWEB.com and
Ancestry.com.
I am also attaching, within this file, those that are researching each
line.
If you do not wish to have your e-mail address attached to a pacific line,
please let me know as well.
Sharing notes is, I believe, the next way to take down some of those brick
walls we are all running into.
Please check out my file, any errors, omission or corrections, please, I
would love to hear from you directly.
To make things simpler, all names are in one variation of spelling,
CAVANAUGH.
Hoping to here from your
Many thanks and happy researching.
