I am looking for any information on Mary Coulbert (sp?) I don't know when or where she was born but she married John Kennedy probably about 1850 in Pennsylvania. They had a son named William J. Kennedy born 1853 in Beaver Co. Pa. I realize this is not much but was hoping it might spark something in someone's line. Thanks

In the 1766 Religious Census there is a Thomas Colebert in Redcity & Coleman. This is 2 miles SW of Fethard. Believe he may be an ancestor of my Catherine Colbert (born 1850) from Kilcash, County Tipperary.
There are many Colberts in Modreeny, which is in the northern part of County Tipperary. This is the first Colbert I've found in the southern portion.
Does anyone have a connection to this Thomas Colebert?

Hi Barb:
Thanks for info. I have wondered how Colberts ended up south of the border. My mother's name is Evelyn Howick and she had three children. A son Arnold and twin daughters Noreen and myself. She is still alive and fairly well at 92. Did you trace back to John and Sarah's family in Ireland? I have not verified this but I think we must have connections to
Hodgins, Shoebottoms and Armitages as they are common names in the London area where I live. Would love to see the info you mentioned. If you have any questions about the Colberts in this area do not hesitate to ask.

Nancy, we're fourth cousins once removed. Our common ancestors are John Colbert and his wife Sarah [?]. You descend from their son Thomas Colbert and Kitty Mooney, then Henry "Big Harry" Colbert and Sarah Seale, then Thomas Colbert and Catherine MacLeod. Thomas, who married Kitty Mooney was the only son of John and Sarah. I descend from John and Sarah Colbert's sixth (and next-to-last) daughter, Elizabeth, who m. William Rawlins, to Sarah "Sally" Rawlins and William "Billy" Dann, to John Rawlins Dann and Elizibeth Moore, who migrated to Michigan in 1873, to Alfred Dann and Blanche Hills, to my dad, Marshall Dann.
I have information on your father's siblings, but nothing on him except that he was born in 1905 and died in 1971 in North Bay, Ontario. My info comes from the "London Township: Families Past and Present" book, pp. 62-66. The book is the second volume of a two-volume set and was published by the London Township History Book Committee. Since I've transcribed all the Colbert information in the book, I can send you a gedcom if you'd like. When I get my scanner working again, I can also scan the photos of Colberts. Only a limited number of the books were printed, and I don't know if any more copies are available, but I can give you the address of the Committee. I think I paid about $70 Canadian for the set.
Do you connect to any other London Township area families?

Thanks Barbra.
The Colbert you mentioned was my father who is deceased.
Melvin Orphus was his uncle and namesake. I know he
went to California and died in Orange County in 1955. I was
just curious to learn a bit more about him. Would love to
share info as we have a family connection.

There were Colberts in London Township, Ontario, during this time, and I found a Melvin Arthur Colbert, b. 1905 in Edgemondville (near Seaforth), but no Melvin Orphus. These Colberts came from Cloughjordan, Tipperary, Ireland.
