Hi List,

   I am new to this list so thought I would add some family I'm researching.

   James Wark born 1811, Ireland, arrived in Ontario by 1847 (census state he came to Canada between 1841-1842) when he married Mary Ann Terry at Fitzroy Harbour. 

   James  made hand made shoes for the gentry of Ottawa ,Mary Ann was a Milliner, made hats.

1863 map of Carleton County, Fitzroy Harbour with landowner's names on it, James Wark was identified as the proprietor of the Union House Hotel in the village. The map shows it at the corner of Harbour Street and Bay Street, lot #122.

    James and Mary Ann's children:

Harry Wark, born 1850, Fitzroy died 1929, Brandon, Manitoba, Canada
Sarah Wark born 1851, Fitzroy, died 1888, Boissevain, Manitoba, Canada
Fred wark born 1853, Arnprior,Ontario, 1912, Minto, Manitoba, Canada
Robert Wark, born 1855 Fitzroy, died 1930, Three Hills, Alberta, Canada
Mary Ann born 1858, Fitzroy, died 1883 Fitzroy Harbour, no idea where she is buried

  I would appreciatte any help with this family, I do have all the census available for the family, would like to be able to find land records, death records for Mary Ann Wark (nee Terry) who died 1861 at Fitzroy, and their daughter Mary Ann Wark who also died at Fitzroy.
