Matthew Brandon, Ireland 1800

Sally, My name is Paul Matthew Brandon, the last of four generations of Matthew Brandons. The earliest Matthew Brandon that I am aware of was Matthew Brandon, born about 1800 in Ireland. He migrated to Canada sometime between 1800 and 1832
when he married Elizabeth Creighton (also from Ireland)in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He died 12 April 1847.
The next three generations of Brandons lived in the Toronto area. My father, Bertram Lenard Brandon born in Toronto,married my mother Edith Cavell McKee from Scotland, April 6th. 1935. They moved our family from Three Hills, Alberta to lower central New York state in 1953 and then over to Wellsboro, Penna where we attended school. I graduated from cowanesque Valley High School in Westfield,Pa. in 1964.
Are you familiar with our branch of the family tree? I also have a sister in Lancaster Pa. Her name is Liz Knerr.
