Looking for any information on James Doak, born about 1810 in Ireland, location unknown, Married Elizabeth Bean, born about 1818 in Ireland, location unknown. Emigrated to New Brunswick, Canada, in June of 1835.
Hi Tim,
There are 3 public member trees on ancestry.com that have this information:
James Doak was born 1810 in Donegal; parents Samuel Doak (born 1772 Dublin) & Mary Elizabeth McLeed 1775 (born 1775 Dublin)
James married Elizabeth Bean (born 1818) Bairdsville New Brunswick in1835
I searched rootsireland.ie for baptisms/births of James Doak with father Samuel and got 3 matches: 1831, 1832 & 1873 all in Donegal. When I searched with the mother's first name Mary added the only match was the 1831.
I couldn't find any birth record for Elizabeth Bean or Mary McLeed.
There are marriage records of Samuel Doak to Mary --- 1823 & 1841 in Donegal, 1834 in Down & 1875 in Derry.
The Tithe Applotments (1823-37) which are free to search has 6 Doaks .- 3 in Tipperary and 3 in Donegal
I only found 2 matches for Samuel Doak's birth - 1794 in Donegal (Doke) and 1820 in Derry.
I couldn't find the Canadian marriage record of James & Elizabeth.
The information on the ancestry is unsourced so can you tell me where the biirth and marriage info came from please?

Hi! I'm 8 years late responding to this question but James Doak would be my great, great grandfather and there is a good family tree on www.FamilySearch.org. ; Otherwise, I don't know anything.
