How exciting. I found this information yesterday and found your message today.

1801 Township of Elizabeth, Johnston District
List of Inhabitants
shows
James Couvey, wife Casiah and children Jonah and Matilda.

1802 Township of Elizabeth, Johnston District
List of Inhabitants
shows
Casiah Covey as head of house, with Jonathan, Matilda, and Hiram.

These are most definitely the people you talked about in your post. I'm headed back to read again what you say and will let you know if I know any more information.

Johnston District was early Upper Canada, later Ontario province. Township of Elizabeth is in the Brockville, Ontario vicinity.

My Covey's were from Athens/ Charleston Lake area, 15 minutes from Brockville. My brick wall is Samuel Covey who married Sarah Patterson. He would have been born about 1811 and she about 1815. I cannot break past him to know his origins or family.

Please keep my email vgsomerville@shaw.ca if you learn anything further of these people. They appear to be a vital link for me! Thanks so much for posting.
