I am seeking information on the same Stagg family. My ggg grandfather was Daniel Stagg, whom I suspect may have been related to Mary Stagg of Lincoln County. Daniel Stagg married Jane Isabella Smith on May 29, 1820 at York, Upper Canada and subsequently had their first child, Ann Stagg, in 1822 at St. Catharines. That would have been in the same vicinity as Mary Stagg and her husband Francis Crooks. In 1823 they had their second child, another Daniel Stagg, and it is believed, although unconfirmed, that they had at least two more children, William (1826) and James (1837). By the mid 1850's the four children had moved to Dawn Township, Lambton County and even Jane Isabella was noted as living with her daughter, Ann Paul, in a later census. Son, Daniel, acquired a small property in Dawn Township on the Sydenham River but was shown to have later moved back to Grantham Township near St. Catharines where he died in 1915. He was buried at Butler Cemetery in Camden Township near his property in Dawn Township. I am seeking any information which would link my Daniel Stagg to other Stagg family members in the Niagara area. I am keen to learn the names of Daniel's parents, his siblings and the family place of origin. Any input will be appreciated.
