Samuel McIllwraith of Ireland and Hastings County, Ontario

Would like to find descendents of John McElrath (McIllwraith) and his wife Hester Hawley who were married @ Belleville, Hastings County, Ontario and lived there their entire lives. Hester was born @ Cloyne in 1874 and was the daughter of Peter Perry Hawley and Elizabeth Fox- Hester a sister to one of my own ancestors. I just found Hester's marriage today to John McElrath.

From online records John and Hester had at least 2 daughters Violet May born 1892 who married Alexander Fulton, and daughter Madeleine born 1897. I have no idea if Madeleine married, have no info on her past the 1911 census. (John may have been a widower when he married Hester so not sure if Violet a daughter of Hester's or from John's previous marriage?)

John McElrath died Nov. 29, 1931 and is buried at Belleville. I do not have a date of death for Hester, but she must be buried @ Belleville also. John's parents were Samuel McElrath born Ireland and his wife Christiana Stevenson from County Down, Ireland. On some records the surname is spelled McIllwraith.

Thanks in advance for any info about Hester. I have an extensive file on her family of origin.
