TIMELINE

Ontario was known as: "Upper Canada" from December 26, 1791, to February 10, 1841; "Canada West" from February 10, 1841, to July 1, 1867; and "Ontario" after July 1, 1867.

It is surmised that Nathaniel Abner Abbey Sr. (age 22), and his wife Mary "Polly" (Winter) Abbey (age 21), and their two children, Rosana Abbey (about age 2), and Isaac Phineas Abbey (about age 1), came to Haldimand Twp., Northumberland Co., Upper Canada, in 1797. They were some of the pioneering settlers of Durham Co., Upper Canada. The Abbey ancestry can be connected through their father Isaac Abbey Jr. all the way back to John Abbey Sr., born about 1587 in West Halton, Lincolnshire, England. His son, John Abbey Jr. of Norwich, Norfolk Co., England, emigrated to the United States about 1635 and married Mary Loring in 1635 at Wenham, Essex Co., MA.

Leigh,

I came across your site when researching the wife of my long lost GGG-Grandfather, Elemuel (or Lemuel) Rogers. His wife’s name was Olive Bradley the daughter of Oliver Bradley.

Olive and Elemuel married and lived in Haldimand, Northumberland Ontario, Canada. Olive died in 1863 at the age of about 47. Before good civil records but the Church records and newspapers confirm this fact.

In your genealogy there is an Oliver of the right age to have a daughter Olive but you did not find one in your research. Do you have any additional data?

Elemuel and Olive had 5 children, 4 boys and one girl. John, William, Joseph and James Edward were the boys. Emma Ester was the girl. All of the boys immigrated to the Midwest of the US. Emma married Albert Hall and stayed in Northumberland area.

After Olive died in 1863 Elemuel remarried Armeda Tuck. Their wedding is well documented but there movements after the wedding are not as clear. They travel with Emma and John (who has married and has one child) to Wisconsin and John sets up a home in Green County, Wisconsin. They are there for the US 1870 Census but in Canada for the 1871 Canadian Census. Emma marries in 1873; no record of Elemuel and Armeda at this event. Later however, Armeda is a witness for her brother's wedding in 1876. After that no record of either Armeda after 1876 or Elemuel after 1870.

What happened to Elemuel and Armeda? Where is Olive buried? Can you help?
