Mary Minnock (Minach) immigrated from Kings County, Ireland to Canada circa 1823 with her husband Michael Horan. They brought their 6 children with them - William, James, Ann, Michael, John, Sarah and Maria. Shortly after arriving in Canada, Michael was killed while working in a Mica mine near Ottawa, Ontario.
Mary was granted a 400 acre parcel of land in Albion Township, Ontario Canada in 1824. Their son, William, and his wife, Hanorah Shore, had 15 children and remained in Albion township, producing a multitude of descendants. Some of William's siblings moved to the Irish Block near Owen Sound Ontario. Mary also moved to the Irish Block and died there in 1859. Her headstone is in St. Michael's Cemetery on the Irish Block Road, Syndenham County.
