McCaffrey Peter [b.1834] - Canada [Quebec] to NH
Posted by: Kim Danielsen (ID *****6533) Date: November 21, 2008 at 15:15:29
  of 835

I am researching Peter's probable son Joseph McCaffery who married Mary Carey about 1906/07, perhaps in Grafton NH. The 1900 census of Coos, Northumberland, NH has a Peter & Mary McCaffrey, both born Canada, had 11 children, immigrated to the US about 1890, only 2 children living w/ them at the 1900 census [Joseph and Maggie].

The 1881 Canadian census has a Peter [b. about 1841 Quebec] & Mary [b. abt 1845 Quebec] "McKaffray" family residing Ste-Sylvestre, Lotbginiere, Quebec, with 9 children at home [Joseph & Maggie of 1900 NH census would have both been born after 1881]. Living w/ them were Peter's parents Patrick [b. abt 1806 Ireland] & Brigite [b. 1805 Ireland] "McKaffray".

The names of the children match partially with other McCaffrey's found living as adults in NH at 1900; but some do not match at all - which may be accounted for by the kids having 2 names and known by one or the other in the 2 different censuses.

The names of Peter's children per the 1881 Canadian census were:
John Francis b. abt 1865
Robert b. abt 1866
Martin b. abt 1871
Philip b. abt 1872
Michel b. abt 1873 [male]
Mary b. abt 1874
Elize b. abt 1877
"Huston" [may be Austin] b. abt 1879 [shown as Female]
Staphon b. Jan 1881

Does anyone know anything about these families?

Thanks,

Kim Danielsen
