Hi Tom,
Well, this is certainly a surprise!! I am going to be meeting with a fellow Ferris researcher from Meaford tomorrow afternoon here in Hamilton, Ontario.The Ferris family that you speak of is mine as well.I am from the line of Sarah (Robinson) and James who left England for Canada in 1847. En route, James and three of their 11 children died.Sarah eventually married John McCrimmon from Binbrook and later on in life they moved to Courtland, Ontario.there they had two more children.To prepare, I just put Sarah's family picture into a frame, and all of the lines down to my grandmother.She was my ggggrandmother.After John died, Sarah lived with her own daughter Sarah until she died.I also have pictures of here sister Elizabeth who with her husband Edward Ferris moved up into the Shelburne area of Ontario a couple of years after they arrived in Canada. It's quite a romantic tale, with two Robinson sisters marrying two Ferris brothers.I would be very interested in sharing info with you. Please contact me and we can get better acquainted.Take care for now, cousin!!
Warm regards,
Karen
