Re Mary Degraw

Post by Scratch And Patch »

By another source I work with, states Mary may be born 1819...

From more information on a lead I received was for a possible relative, from the same area in Oxford County, Blenheim District, Ontario Canada. I received James Degraw 1824 U.C. doing a search on this person I found this information ... he had 5 other bro's + 1 sis, his parents were James Degraw & Catherine ? - b. 1806 U. S. I est. James b. of 1800 through Catherine.

So in a search for James 1800 I got this information... Benjamin de Graw b. 26 Sep 1767' Bergen, New Jersey - d. 1829, Mendon, Monroe, New York. Married to Jemima Jourions b. 1770
Mendon, Monroe, N.Y. - d.1841. They married 1795 in Vermont. Their children were... 1. Timothy b. 11 Feb 1796, Vermont - d. 12 May 1866, 2. Moses b. 1798 Vermont, 3.Mary b. 1800 Upper
Canada. 4. John J. b. 1802 Upper Canada, 5. Catherine b. 1804 Upper Canada - d. 1893, 6. Sarah b. 3 May 1805 New York - d. 23 Feb 1885, 7. Aaron b. 1807 Vermont - d. 1885, 8. Jemima
b. 1809 New York, 9. Jacob b. 16 Jul 1811 Mendon Monroe N.Y. - d. 5 Jan 1856 Lehi, Utah UT, 10. Sophia b. 1813 New York, Lasyly 11. Elizabeth b. 1816.

Is it possible this is " MY MARY DEGRAW? " Is it possible her mother is " FRENCH ETHNIC... "

Jemima is not a common name.

Mary named one of her children Jemima.

The 1871 census says she is Canadian born of French Ethnicity.

Jourions sounds pretty French to me but a check of FamilySearch found not a single record under that surname.

There are some that are phonetically similar but they are Dutch.

From an Ancestry Library, search I found this Mary again!!!!!!!!!! Name: Nary Degraw, Event: Living, Year: 1837, Place: Chinguacousy Township, County: Peel, Province: Ontario.
Peel County is just North of Toronto, Chinguacousy Township, has a very deep history to it!!!!!!
