I have a Sarah Matthews married to Michael Organ who were my 3rd Great Grandparents. Their daughter Frances Organ b. 1837 was married to Reuben Samms; one of their daughters was also married to a Matthews. Any information we can share?
Thank you
Susan

just reading thru some messages and I am a decendent of the Brake Family and saw your message...don't know if this is a still a good email address but for info that I have it is said Jane Matthews was an indian...She was 22 yrs old when she married Ralph and they were married for 24 years. They lived in the area of Humber Sound...this info above was provided by Ralph when he was interviewed at the age of 80 yrs.

Ralph Brake was sent to Nfld in 1772 at the age of 12 years from England

I have seen a number of references to an interview with Ralph Brake when he was 80. Can anyone tell me where to find this interview?

Daphne: I just came across your message . I am doing the LeRiche /Ash line of Nfld. Elizabeth Strickland Dob unknown married James LeRiche.
Elizabeth is the daughter of William & Frances(Organ)Strickland.
Also I am interested in the Clothier line of Burgeo NL. All thre best. George Hunt

Doreen : I have just started the LeRiche /Strickland /ash line . Location Wood Isl / Trout River & PAB. Maybe we could compare notes. I have just returned from PAB where I met with LeRiche ,Savory , Strickland family members.
Hope to hear from you. All the best. George Hunt.

Daphne: Wm. Strickland 1801 married Frances Organ
1809 on the 26 Oct 1828. This is my wifes GGGrandmother. There daughter Elizabeth married James LeRiche. I'm working on the LeRiche / Strickland / Ash line. I've just started this line and do not have much as yet. But would be glad to share what I do have. All the best George Hunt.

I also have Reuben Sams and Frances "Fanny" Organ as my 3rd great grandparents. My 2nd great grandmother was their daughter Maria Sams who married Robert Butler. They came to Boston circa 1896. My great grandmother Mary Caroline Butler was born in Newfoundland in October 1891. I am looking for the parents of Robert Butler (Catholic) and Fanny Organ and Reuben Sams. Any information would be greatly appreciated. I will share all info that I have regarding these lines.

Thanks!

Frances married 1.William Organ (lost at sea Aug.25, 1927) 2. Philip Seymour
George married Marjorie?
Melita married 1.Wilson Greene (lost at sea Aug.25, 1927) 2. Charles Martin
I haven't been able to confirm parents for Robert and /or Lillian. Any nudge in the right direction would be appreciated.
