I have been researching my Irish ancestors and have managed to trace a branch back to Belfast, Ireland, but have now hit a wall. Bridget McManus (b. approx 1810) and Robert McClutchy (born approx 1807 in Glasgow, Scotland) settled in Quebec, Canada, after emigrating from Belfast sometime between 1828 and 1831. The 1851 Canadian census record I found shows that they were Catholic, and it appears that Robert was a teacher. I haven't been able to locate a marriage record for Bridget and Robert in either Ireland or Scotland, so haven't been able to proceed any further. If anyone has any information that they think might be helpful, I would appreciate the input.
