I am Peter Deacon. Ilive in Ottawa, Ont. Canada. My ancestors came here from Enniscorthy, Wexford.
Thomas Deacon married Jane Shirtliff and they had at least 5 boys. George , born 1776, was my line. He married Mary Griffith. They had 3 children, Elizabeth(Bradley) ,George 1827, and Robert. George died in 1839 and Mary and her 3 children emigrated to Canada in 1846.
They settled in a small tow of Franktown, Ont. They were given a small piece of land from one of Mary's two brothers , who came here earlier, so I have been told. I have worked for 30 some years onmy family tree and have enjopyed it very much. I had a great deal of help form a kind lady called Gloria Binions from Ireland. Sshe lived in the same area as my anceatore.
Thanks for any response to this note.
Peter Deacon
