To Linda (Enright) Smith,

My name is Shirley Massé and I am researching my husband’s family. His great-great 
grandmother was Catherine Enright, born about 1840 in Ireland. She moved with her 
family to Ontario, Canada before 1864.  We are trying to find her parents names 
and any other information we can on this family.  

I saw an article on the internet about the death of  Sister Catherine Enright, the 
great granddaughter of Patrick Enright and Ann McMahon and thought this may be the 
family we were looking for.  I was wondering if you may have any information that 
may help me determine if this is the correct family.

The information I have is that Catherine Enright had a brother named John, who 
married a girl named Norah.  Catherine went to Montreal to help a friend, where 
she met and married John Thomas BURKE, who was born in Ireland.    John Burke was a 
soldier in the British Army (Grenadier Guards), who was on duty in Montreal for 
awhile.   They were married 7 March 1864 by the Chaplain to the Forces.  The witness 
was Catherine McNeice and Phillip Fry.  There were no parents names given.  They 
returned to England shortly after their marriage.

I would really appreciate any information you may have.  Please e-mail me at  
bmasse@telusplanet.net
 
Thank You
Shirley Masse
