Allens & Morrisons (Church of England)
Hello I am trying to confirm parents and identify siblings for both of my 2xgreatgrandparents who immigrated to Canada in 1847. Here is what I know: William Allen and Margery (Morrison) were married 19 Apr 1822 in Ballysadare, Co Sligo. In about May 1847 they immigrated to Canada with their family, Robert (b 14 Jul 1823), John F (b 28 May 1827), Margaret (b 21 Apr 1831), Sarah (b 1835), William (b 28 Mar 1838), Marjorie (b 11 Sep 1843). They made it to Toronto Gore area where, apparently they were coming to join one/some of Margery's family. William died 14 Jul 1847, between 10-14 days after their arrival, of ships fever and is buried outside of Toronto. I have some information that says that William's parents were Robert & Sarah Allen - they were apparently listed in Burke's in 1800 and Robert was supposedly a clerk for a lawyer named Argu in 1776. The name of Margery's parents may be John and Margaret Morrison. I am trying to confirm/identify William and Margery's parents, siblings, aunts, uncles etc. Any help would truly be appreciated!
