I am the great granddaughter of Valentine Tennyson and Rachael Baker who are buried in the Marmora Cemetary, Marmora Township, Hastings County I would be very interested in hearing from you, my grandmother was Rachael Augusta Tennyson who married Abraham Murphy Derry, they are buried in the Fox's Cemetary Madoc Township, Hastings County. I am particularily interested in the date of Valentine and Rachael's settlement in Hastings County, where they originally came from and how many children they had other than Rachael August, I know that two infants or children are buried in the same plot in Marmora, but the tombstones are so old and moss covered it is hard to read them. I would also llike to find out their country of origin was it England or Ireland. Any help you could give me would be most appreciated. I perhaps could give you some information on Rachael and Abraham Derry's family if you are interested. Thank you Bonnie (Derry) Marleau.

Hi, This is such an old post I am taking a chance that you are still involved with this site. Your Rachel Baker, daughter of Robert and Caroline is the sister to "our" Gideon Baker. I too have some questions and would love to discuss it in further detail.

Have a wonderful day
and happy hunting!

Surnames: WEIR TENNYSON
John Graham WEIR and Lovina Victoria TENNYSON didn't have any children, but he did have lots of nephews with a similar name, and I know at least one went West.
He kept daily journals from 1880 (when he was 40) 'til he died in 1925. Here is one entry:
1891 Saturday December 26 Lovina and I went to town at 11 o'clock and we had Mr. Sproule to take our pictures to be given to our guests on New Years night - the 25th anniversary of our wedding. George Francis Weir, his wife and two children arrived from Manitoba and they came home with us to stay two months or perhaps more. We are rejoiced to have them here. This has been another warm day and the roads are just covered with mud and water.

I'm excited about your post and hope we are talking about the same people. Do you have any pictures of John and Lovina? Does your family have a Peterborough County connection? There were other Weirs here too.

Hi
it would seem this could not be my great grandfather/grandmother if they had no children, My grandfather was also John graham weir and he married Hannah Mcleod and they lived in wetaskiwin alberta, one of my uncles did some research and told us this information .My great great grandfather was robert(robt) Weir and came from Ireland.
Not sure where to go from here .I have and old picture of my grandfather but that is all.
