My name is Philip Roach jr.and I grew up in Brasher Falls,New York across the border from Cornwall,Ontario.I am researching my family history in the Cornwall area and it goes like this.My original Roche that came to the area was John Roche my ggg grandfather from Ireland.He married Elizabeth Taillon on 1/7/1834 in ST.Andrews near Cornwall the church was ST.Andrews parish.They had eleven children,Sarah,Mary,Francis,Thomas,Eliza,Elizabeth,John jr.,Alexander,Joseph,Katherine and William my gg grandfather.William married twice the first wife was Ann MCdonald and they had two girls Elizabeth and Ann.Ann MCdonald I believe then died and William remarried to Eliza ann Smith and they had nine more children William jr.,John,Herbert,Charles,Bessie,Michael,George,Jerry and my g grandmother Matilda.Sometime around 1880 William and Eliza ann and all their children moved to the Brasher Falls,New York area where there is still Roach families living today.If any of this looks familier please write back to me,I know that the many Roach families living in the Cornwall area today have to be from the same line.Thank You Philip Roach jr.
