Looking for any information on parents, siblings, origins of James SULLIVAN born between 1820 and 1828 in Lower Canada (Quebec). By 1851 James had immigrated to Cumberland Township, Russell County, Ontario eventually settling in the south end of Cumberland Township in what became known as the “Bear Brook” area. About 1857 James married Jane JAMES bought 50 acres at the West ½ Lot 20, Concession VI Cumberland Township, Russell.
