Herrington/Harrington from Montgomery Co. NY
Looking for any leads on a William and Maria Herrington
who moved to Canada from NY state in the late 1830's.
By 1850 they had settled in Clinton (Beamsville, Ontario).
William died there in 1855 and four of their children
settled in the area;
Mary born approx 1819 in the U.S.
(married Robert Cartmer, Smithville, Ontario)
Hellen born June 1, 1815 NY state
(married John Johnson of Caistor)
Abigail born Nov 1, 1828 Montgomery County NY
(unmarried)
Joseph born Feb 2, 1834 Canada
(married Nora Morningstar, Wainfleet, Ontario)
I believe William and Maria may have had other sons
in Ontario (also born in NY) and welcome any leads.
A William Herrington (tailor) was arrested for assisting the rebels in 1837 (in Windsor) but I am not certain if
that person is related.
