Benjamin & Dorothy Legate, Ireland to Mulmur about 1850

Benjamin & Dorothy Legate, Ireland to Mulmur about 1850

Surnames: Legate, Delaney
Benjamin Legate & Dorothy Delaney were both born in Ireland about 1825. It's likely they married there. They came to Canada in the late 1840's, early 1850's and settled in Mulmur (which has been either Simcoe or Dufferin Co) near the Rosemont area. They had a bunch of children including Robert, Mary Jane, Catherine, Thomas, Benjamin, William and Annie Victoria.

Benjamin died in a rather horrible accident Dec 1876.

Dorothy, and the children left at home, moved to Grey County. Dorothy died there. Both Dorothy and Benjamin were buried in Perm Methodist Cemetery in Mulmur.

These people may or may not belong to my tree. Anyone else know anything about them?
