My ancestors were Hodgins, Daggs, Walls, & Kelly's. My grandparents came to Saskatchewan from Shawville, Quebec. I have numerous relatives in the Ottawa area, so am very interested in this project.

Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!
Can you provide more specifics? Given names, years of birth/marriage. I will alert our parish liaison for Kilbarron that you have posted a message.

Hi Marjorie
We have been doing quite a bit of research on emigration from Kilbarron Terryglass to Ottawa and greater Ontario area and one family the Hodgins figured quite a bit in it. three brothers and their families from Terryglass went to Shawville in 1832 and also a James Hodgins from Kilbarron and his family they settled in Biddulph
Check out our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/kilbarronterryglass1815/?ref=aymt_homepage_pan… for the moment and will add some more information when I look up my records, it would be very interseting to locate a relative of the Shawville Hodgins
