FARRELL, Ellen Maria ¹ ² ³ ⁴ ⁵ ⁶

Born: 1832, Ireland
Marriage: HARCOURT, James about 1849 in Arthur, Wellington North County, Ontario, Canada
Died: 15 Apr 1879, Arthur, Wellington North County, Ontario, Canada at age 47 ⁷
Buried: Apr 1879, St. John's Roman Catholic Cemetery, Arthur, Wellington North County, Ontario, Canada

Ellen married James HARCOURT, son of Luke HARCOURT and Mary McCAFFREY, about 1849 in Arthur, Wellington North County, Ontario, Canada. (James HARCOURT was born about 1826 in Ireland, died on 23 Apr 1892 in Seney, Schoolcraft County, Michigan ⁸ and was buried in Apr 1892 in St. John's Roman Catholic Cemetery, Arthur, Wellington North County, Ontario, Canada.)

bullet Marriage Notes:

There is a discrepancy between the birth year of James and Ellen's two oldest children and the probable date of their marriage. Ellen is still living with her parents on the 1851 census (much of which wasn't ennumerated until 1852), so it is impossible that John and Mary would have been born in 1850. More research is needed.
