Robert or James Falls married Elizabeth (Ellen) Stinson (b. 1808) died in Canada 1853.
Ellen's husband died prior to the voyage to Canada or onroute. Her data of immigration wasm 1836 - 1837..since she remarried in Canada in 1838.
Ellen had 3 son's:
1. James Falls (b. Jun 7 1827),
2. Robert Falls (b. Apr 1835)
3. William Falls (b. 1836 approx)
Our Families have suspected they came from Tyrone or Belfast (near Falls road), but we have no proof.
If someone could identify the parish they came from that would indeed be a dream come true after the years of searching.
Please let me know if you find something.
Thanks LGF
