I'm still looking for siblings of Hugh Cavan born July 3, 1794 in Kearney Countyy Down, Ireland. Hugh died Jan 3, 1860 at Bayside, New Brunswick. I believe he, his wife and children, possibly, Jane, Isabella, Hugh and Agnes, came to New Brunswick in 1835.Family stories tell of 3 brothers coming to North America but we've not been able to confirm this. Hugh's wife, Isabella McKibbin born 1786 also from Kearney Countyy Down, Ireland, died Nov 3, 1842, also in New Brunswick. I have a photograph of their grave. On Nov 3, 1846 Hugh then married Elizabeth Martin Kirkpatrick Cassidy. They had 4 children. Upon Hugh's death I believe Elizabeth married John Howard Greenlaw and had a daughter Jessie Gay
