Jane Salter was my great great grandmother. She was born circa 1800 to 1808 in County Kilkenny(or possibly County Carlow) to William Salter and his wife Elizabeth Willoughby. They are found on the Mothell list of  1816 of those desiring to emigrate.

They came to Upper Canada (Ontario) circa 1816 settling in Beckwith Township, Lanark County, Upper Canada. There she met and married Stephen Tomlinson in 1822 at Perth, Lanark County. They raised 10 children: Mary b. 1828, Ann b. 1829, John b. 1832, Margaret b. 1833, Stephen b. 1836, Alice b. 1837, William b. 1841, Nicholas Joseph b. 1841, Peter b. 1843, and Thomas b. 1850.

They moved to Montague Township, Lanark County in the 1830s and then to Kincardine Township, Bruce County in the 1850s. Jane died there December 6, 1878.

    Travelling Folk in the 1930s

    <p>Between 1937 and 1939, primary school pupils across the Republic of Ireland interviewed the elderly in their neighborhood to collect and record local stories and folklore from the 19th century. "The Schools Collection" as it became known is held by the Dúchas Folklore Collection in UCD and is and has been digitized online at duchas.ie. One of the topics schoolchildren were asked to write about were "Travelling Folk" or An Lucht Siúil. </p> <p>Here is a selection of what "settled" children wrote about travelers in the late 1930s.</p>
