I am reposting this topic because of new information obtained. As confirmed by Ontario Genealogy Society ( Brant County ), which is where Mary married William Dodman. To refresh your
memory William was b. 1821 Norfolk County, Snettisham, Eng. & passed 1875 Kent County, Zone Township, On., Canada. William & Mary were married in Brantford, Brant County, On.,
All Saints Church, 1841.
My new information is that Mary Degan was born in a very remote area of Northern On. This area is called the drainage basin for James Bay, which is where the Cree Nation lives. For Mary,
looking on a map of Northern On was born between the end of Drowning River at its Southern point & Little Drowning River at its Southern point. The closest village to this area is called
Nakina. Going North East of Nakina is Wababimige Lake & to the far West side of Little Drowning River is Jog Lake & Kenogami River. This area is so remote that, even on any map does not
show exactly what village or town Mary was born.
With this new information, can any more information be obtained. Such as birth date, home town, parents.
Thank You Very Much For Taking Time With This Post!!!
