I am interested in communicating 
with
anyone who shares the same genealogical or historical interests.
My family tree is private but I want to collaborate on deep ancestors or historical figures.
I've hit a dead end in my research at this point. Traced a family of Larocques from Brockville, ON back to a Christopher Larocque and Madeline (or Margdalene) Thompson in Lancaster township in the early 1800's, then could not find their ancestors, who may have lived in Québec. Can't find anything out about Ellen Feeney who immigrated to Canada from Bermuda in 1870, and married(?) - we can't find a marriage record - Joseph Long of Uxbridge, Ontario, Canada before 1895. Also seeking the ancestors of an Arthur Lalonde (1869 - 1927) from Brockville, ON. Any help appreciated.

Biography
I'm a freelance writer and editor working in Canada. I'm researching my father's side of the family, about which I knew little when I started. I'm keeping all the information fairly private for now, until I've had time to create the profiles and then check with the living members who are in there to make sure they're okay with the information being online. After that, if they're cool, I'll make it all more public. Happy to talk to anyone who might have more information about eastern Ontario Larocque families in the early 1800's, and happy to share what I've already discovered. Also wondering if anyone who has ideas around why my great-grandmother was Irish, but was born in India, and might have lived in Bermuda before coming to Canada in the late 1800's. I could be interested in how to find Bermuda marriage records.

I noticed that you're working on pre-1700-era profiles. This is just a reminder that certifying to work on these types of profiles means that you agree to add valid sources as outlined in the Pre-1700 Certification Quiz.
In particular, it is important that a complete source is provided, so others can judge the accuracy of the information found on the profile, and independently verify the information by finding the source themselves. For example, LDS microfilm for a certain area can include a wide variety of records, such as church records, tax records, census records, or histories published decades after the people profiled died, so more complete details of the record should be provided. For LDS records, the catalog likely has information you can copy and paste, and then maybe just add the page or image number. The sources help page has some additional information: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources

PS. Please avoid the use of abbreviations as they can mean different things in different countries, always use the full words
Thank you for signing the Honor Code. Please take your time to review it again, you can always find the text in your menu on the top right of every page.
May I suggest amending your tags so you have one tag for each name you are researching and the location, rather than including full names? So FEENEY instead of ELLEN_FEENEY?
If you create tags for just surnames, the tags become clickable links to pages of others who want to collaborate about that surname. With a full names as a tag, that isn't possible. This link may help you Tags
Your Wiki Genealogy Feed will show the activity connected to the surnames and places relating to your tags.
