Hello, I have a Mary Driscoll (O'Driscoll) that married a John Hayes. They came to Quebec in the mid 1800s. On the 1851 Canadian Census it is just John and the children. So maybe Mary died on the way over??? I have not found any data on this particular Mary on record in Canada. They were married in Ireland as they brought their (5) children. John Hayes died April 4 1862 in Brennan Hills ,Quebec,which is in the Farrellton (Gatineau Valley) Area of Quebec. The other names you show also show up in my Family Tree data. A Catherine Hayes was married to a Eugene Owen Daly. Eugene Daly was the son of Carroll Daly and Bridget McCarthy. It seems this Mary Driscoll was married to Carrol's Father Eugene Daly. I feel we have the same Driscoll family if you could help me out figuring out my particular Mary Driscoll that would be great.
