For "Elizabeth Cook" Re:- Post #10 (03/02/04) Re:- "... Robert Brown's descendents ... through his son, Willam". If you know that your Robert Brown's wife was an Annie Forrester, I would be very interested in communicating with you.
Thank You, - Murray

Hello! I am descended from Cornelius Gannon and Eleanor Murray who emigrated from Ireland and came to Rawdon in the early 1800s. His son James Gannon married Ann Skelly--they both died in 1901 and are buried at Ste Julienne. It's so nice to see photos of the area and other information such as the Copping Diaries--it really brings it all to life for me! Wonderful site!
