My ancestors are the Pembroke / Fahy family who immigrated from Dunnamaggan, Kilkenny, Ireland to Prince Edward Island, Canada sometime after April of 1830 and before 1837.   The only source that I have found for the family in Ireland is for John Pembroke, who was the son of Patt Pembroke and Bridget Fahy, baptized April 23, 1830 in Dunnamaggan, Kilkenny, Ireland.  Upon the Pembroke family's arrival in Prince Edward Island they settled in Lot 24 of Prince Edward Island in the South Rustico area. Patt (Patrick) Pembroke and Bridget Fahy had at least 6 additional children that were born in Prince Edward Island, Canada beginning in 1837. My ancestor was Mary Pembroke (born 1845), who was the sister of John Pembroke born in Ireland 1830.
