Hi Wayne

I have a picture of Aaron's headstone  It says he was born in 1771 in Ireland

He dies, at the age of 100, in 1871, and he is buried in Crispin Cemetery in Hanover, Ont with his wife Elizebeth

He had 3 children, Ann Jane, born around 1833 in Ireland, John, born at sea in 1840, and Henry, born in Ont in 1842

I know that Ann went on to marry John Jenkins, John married Sarah Runnings and Henry married Esther Cruickshanks, although I cannot find Henry and Esther's marriage  I know Henry and Esther's first born son was Edward Sanford, born in 1884

So, Aaron and Elizebeth left Ireland in 1840, she was pregnant with their second child  Their first born, Jane was maybe 7, anf their last child was born in Ont in 1842

I would like to know when and where in Ireland Aaron and Elizebeth marriedand if possible what ship they were on and where it landed

If I knew how, I would send you a picture of his headstone
