Looking To Build a Tucker Family Tree and track my familys journey to Canada.
|
What Tucker Family and what year are we talking about going to Canada? I have a connection to a Tucker Family (Loyalist) but not sure it is the same Tucker Family.
|
My Grandpa Earl's parents were Gwendolyn (Nanny Gus) and I believe Elonzo Tucker. Not sure on the spelling of their first names though. She was from Barbados, and I think he was from Newfoundland. He had already passed away before I was born, so don't know much about him. They had 3 sons...Howard, Bruce and Earl...and not sure in what order they were born. After ELonzo died the boys and Nanny Gus moved in with her 2 sisters (Aunts to Earl), Edie and Louise. Both the aunts were never married. And unfortunately that is all I know about my Grandpa Earl's family.
My Grandma Pat parents were Murray and Mina (Wilhelmina) Dalglish. Mina's maiden name was Lancey. Murray and Mina....had 3 daughters...Betty (real name was Wilma Elizabeth) was the eldest. Then they had Jean...and she was Stephanie, Linda and Nancy's mom. Then Pat...real name Patricia Lillian May...was their youngest.
this is all i know

Do you have a time frame? Date of birth? Date of death? What was last name of Nanny Gus' sisters?
|
Do you have the name of the Town/Village where they lived or the dates that they were in a particular town?
|
nanny gus & her sister's maiden names were Shepard.
death dates.. i can work on mid 80's and or early 90's i think
|
I know Gus edie and louise and patricia & earl are all buried in the Belleville cemetary.

I think you will find that this is the Loyalist Tucker family that lived in the Lenox/Addington area. Gerhom Tucker of Ernstown married a daughter of Owen McGrath (McGrah) of Fredericksburg. Gerhom was the son of a Loyalist in the Rev. War. Check Church Records and you might find B, M and D Records. Also check Loyalist who settled in Lenox/Addington after the Rev. War. Queens College has information, also St George in Kingston Ontario and other early church records (Methodist etc.) I'm moving and my info is packed but Gerhom had a son John.
