Place of migration
Migrated to /Born in Canada

James Callon migrated to Canada from Queen’s County in about 1825 and secured a land grant in 1827 from the British Government. His application for the land grant said he arrived from Queen’s County with a wife and three children. I assume he married and his children born this County.

Searching for any ties to this Callon family tree in Queen’s County / now referred to Laios County. He was Catholic.
