Hi~yes this is the Agnes I referred to in previous thread. She was dtr of Joseph Breen and Elizabeth (Betsy) Reeves from Canada Hr. Besides the 5 sons living, I believe they had one who drowned. I always heard the story how his father tore large trees out of place in an effort to get out to him.
They are the same Barret's connected to the Ballot's of Canada Hr. I have good reason to believe their origins were Ship Cove near Port Rexton as the Brennox (Brennock's/Brennick's) were also from there and Richard Ballott of Can Hr and John Brennock of Can Hr had adjoining lands/premises and were married to sisters (sisters of Betsey Reeves Breen by the way!) Hope this helpful in making the connections. JohnE
