Some Descendants of Captain George Thew BURKE and Lydia GRANT
Also the FOGARTY surname (since 1822) in Nepean Township
Surnames: Burke, Fogarty, Grant
Looking for any information on the Burkes of Richmond, ON. George Thew Burke
was born in Tipperary, Ireland in 1776. Came to Canada as a Captain in the 100th
Foot in 1805. Married Lydia Grant, probably in Ireland , although their first child,
Robert George was not born until 1808. Any info would be appreciated. Willing to
share what I have... Bob Foley
Hello Bob
My name is Taylor Kennedy and I am researching the Kennedy's in Nepean Huntley etc.
Mary Kennedy daughter of William Kennedy and Isabella Watt of Nepean married
Andrew FOGARTY. So I visited the archives and searched for their childrens birth
dated etc. I made notes as to where they lived which in the begginnig, was con.4,
lot 20, Nepean then around 1880 they moved into my gggrandfathers
[William Kennedy] farm, con. 3, lot 16. Now heres an interesting note, is that Daniel
Fogarty also resided on con. 4, lot 20 with Andrew. Daniel was married to Margaret
O'Grady and I sourced their children also. I was thinking that maybe Andrew and
Daniel were brothers. I also recorded Catherine Teresa Fogarty b.1832 and d.1861,
Lydia Anne Fogerty b. 1835 and d.Nov. 01, 1857. Catherine Mary Fogarty b.1838
and d.Jan.02, 1862, Mary Emily Burke Fogarty b.1842 and d.Aug.04,1864,My
Andrew Fogarty b.1845 and d.Apr.30, 1921 and of course Daniel b.1840 and
d.June 29, 1926.
(Andrew Fogarty and Mary moved onto
William Kennedy's farm in 1880 when he was sick. Mary died around the age of
35 and Andrew married again to Ellen Driscoll.)
When I took tombstone pictures at St. Patricks in Nepean, I have one for 3 of Daniels
children with 2 others. One being George Burke Fogarty b. 1879 and d.1923. The
other addional child was Rose Ann Fogarty, not belonging to Andrew because his
Rose Ann was born 1878. This Rose Ann was born 1869 so I assumed she was one
of Daniels.
So in short, Andrew and Daniel shared a farm, conc. 4, lot 20. Daniel has children
named after George Burke. I think we may have a distant connection here. Please help
me if you have any information linking the above. Many thanks.
Taylor Kennedy.
My GGGgrandfather was George Thew Burke born 1776 in Tipperary, Ireland;
died February 2, 1854. He married Lydia Anne Grant, 1788-1825. His daughter
Catherine Lydia, 1814-1844, married Phillip B. Fogarty. their children were
Catherine Theresa, Lydia and Emily. Sounds like this could be a match... Bob Foley

Good Morning Taylor:
The papers you sent me on Richard Forrest are real interesting. Where the
heck do these come from? I thought you had to go to the local court house or
somewhere like that to get wills.
It took me a long time yesterday but I finally found the paper with Daniel
Fogarty. This is a breakthrough for me as it ties my own family in with the
Nepean folks. I'm going to try and sort them out today Sullivans, Byrnes in
Nepean with my Sullivans, Burns and Christophers across the river in
Osgoode.
A Daniel Fogarty is listed on this page: (Patrick Sullivan, my
GGGGrandfather)
www.bytown.net/patsull.htm
No age is given (it came from the church records). Any idea which Daniel
Fogarty it is?
Thanks again... Al
(still looking at the Cunningham connection)
You might find the tie of Fogarty > O'Grady > Sullivan > Burns , Byrnes
I have attached text format of all Burns and Byrnes in St. Patricks in
Fallowfield. It might help but it also doesn't hurt.
I know of 3 Daniel Fogartys. Daniel M. b. 1870 d. 1905 so he was too young
for the marriage. Daniel Fogarty b. 1800 d. 1861. Gone before the marriage.
That leaves Daniel Fogarty husband of Margaret O'Grady, b. 1840 d. 1926.
Good candidate here.
This could be the first game loss for the Senators, hee hee. Keep well
Until next time

i. MURIEL5 DERVIN, b. Bet. 1900 - 1904, Nepean, Ontario.
Notes for MURIEL DERVIN:
My Aunt Rita remembers her aunt Lil talking a lot about the Dervins. When
aunt Rita was 8-9 years in age she went to Our Lady Elementry School and
Muriel Dervin was a teacher there. Estimated in her twenties. The school was
across the street from St. Brigids Church, presently abandoned this day of
September 06, 2000.

Hi Al
Where do I start? Okay, Bruce (Dr. Bruce Elliott) states I am somewhat wrong in the info.
regarding Fogarty's. I agree somewhat. Brine (Bryan) may or may not be a
brother to Daniel & Philip, but Dan & Phil are very closely related, almost
like brothers, based on living sections, names of children, and according to
the 1842 census, they both are living together and arrived in Canada about
1829, same time my William did. The girls, Catherine Teresa, Mary Emily and
Lydia Anne were placed with Daniel Sr. from an 1851 census that I can't find
right now. Amongst them were Timothy Fogarty who arrived circa 1834, Bryan
Fogarty who arrived circa 1830 and James Fogarty the Plasterer who arrived
circa 1841.
St. Patricks Church Cemetery has 3 major Fogarty plots. Two of which I have
identified. The third beloging to the Burkes / Fogarty clan. (see notes from
Bob Foley). The following jpegs will show 2 of the plots and who belongs to
who for clarification.
take care

Dear Dr. B. Elliott
My name is Taylor Kennedy. I am descended from William Kennedy who resided
on Concession 3, Lot 16. He arrived in Canada circa 1832 as he married in
1833 in Notre Dame, Ottawa to Isabella Watt that believe to be the daughter
of James Watt and Judy. James was a soldier listed in the 1851 census.
Isabella was born in the West Indies.
Williams daughter, Mary Kennedy, married Andrew Fogarty, son of Daniel and
Rose ???. Through my researches since Feb. 2000, I have come across Fogarty
alot. Trying to connect pieces. Both Daniel Jr. and Andrew were brothers.
Daniel Sr. and Philip, were they brothers? They appear in the 1842 census as
arriving circa 1832 also, and living together. From Bob Foley, I received
information without facts that Philip Fogarty married Catherine Lydia Burke,
daughter of George Thew Burke, but again, nothing factual. I have recovered
the Last Will & Testaments of George Robert Burke (suppose to be son of
George Thew Burke) and his daughter Catherine Lydia Burke. This follows. I
visit the archives so often, they should have me on payroll, he he.
My understanding is that George Thew Burke Sr. and his wife Lydia Grant are
buried at St Philips in Richmond. I have visited there as yet.
However, this is what I have so far on the Burkes. If you wish sanned copies
of the wills, I would be happy to send them. Take care

Obituary from The Ottawa Citizen, Saturday, February 4, 1854 - "Burke : At
the residence of his Son-in-law, Colin McDonell, Esqr., in this Town, on
Thursday last, the 2nd instant, COLONEL GEORGE THEW BURKE, aged 78 years, a
native of Ballyartel, County Tipperary, Ireland. Colonel Burke entered the
army in 1798 in the ancient Irish Fencibles, and served under Abercrombie in
Egypt. On the return of the Army to Ireland, he was employed on the
Recruiting Service, and was mainly instrumental in raising the 99th (Old
100th Regiment), and for which he obtained his Company in that distinguished
Corps, and in which on the Staff, Colonel Burke served throughout the
wholw American War of 1812, and was present at the hard fought battles of
Sackett's Harbour and Chateauguay --- for which, and for his services in
Egypt, he obtained two medals. He was then appointed, for his distinguished
services, to the Posts of Deputy - Assistant Quarter Master General and
Brigade Major at Quebec. On his retiring on half-pay, shortly afterwards,
he was nominated by Sir John Sherbrooke (Governor and Commander - in -
Cheif) in Canada, as Superintendent of the Rideau Military Settlement, and
stationed in Richmond, where his appointment was subsequently confirmed by
His Grace, the Duke of Richmond, from whose side during his Grace's short
and melancholy illness, Colonel Burke (and in taking wine with whom at the
house of Colonel Powell at Perth, the first symptoms of His Grace's
frightful malady were noticed) was never absent, and called forth
expressions of the deepest gratitude for his kindness and attention from his
illustrious friend. Colonel Burke was elected to represent (then first
formed) County of Carleton in the Provincial Legislature, and was appointed
Registrar for the County of Lanark, which post was subsequently exchanged
for that of the County of Carleton, the duties of which he always performed
with credit to himself and satisfaction to the public until within a short
period of hid death, and during which, his son, Mr. James Burke, has
officiated.
Although brought up in such stirring times, Colonel Burke was always
characterized by his mild and unassuming manners, and during his military
career was beloved by his Brother Officers for his distinquished bravery and
coolness on the field of battle.
In him, his Family have lost a kinf Father, the Public, a faithful
servant, and the writer of this imperfect and humble tribute to the memory
of a brave and good man, an old, staunch and unflinching friend."
June 16, 2002: (Happy Father's Day !)
I would appreciate any information on George Thew Burke, b. 1776 in Ballyactel, CO.
Tipperary, Ireland. He joined the army in 1798 (brevet-major of the 99th Regiment)
and served on Wellingtons staff at Waterloo. In the war of 1812 (Canada), he fought
at Queenston Heights under General Brock,and as a Colonel at the battle of Chateauguay
and Sackett's Harbour, New York.He was then appointed Deputy Assistant Adjutant General
to the forces in Montreal.
George Thew Burke became the superintendant of the settlement at Richmond, Ontario,
Canada, and was the 1st Member for Carleton in the Parliament of Upper Canada from
1821-29. Colonel Burke's property was in the King Park area of Richmond.
Burke died in Richmond in 1854, age 77 years.

Hi Michael, I'm researching a Burke family who were located in Ottawa. I don't know
if it's the same line but I'm hoping maybe my ancestors Daniel Patrick (or Patrick Daniel)
may have been related to George Thew Burke I or II. Do you know if George Thew Burke I
had any brothers? I would appreciate any info you may have.
Thanks in advance,

Hi guys
As you know Burke was also documented as Bourke in earlier writings. When a
transcriber reads the hand writing of earlier times, it's possible for errors
due to faded print etc.
I came across this birth from St. Philip's and thought it was interesting:
6 January Baptism of James Henry Rourke, born 6 March 1820, son to George Rourke.
The sponsors were Rev. T. Smith (Priest) & Mary Ann Ross.
As you can see a badly written "B" could be mistaken for an "R".
Just a point to ponder.
Take care
Taylor Kennedy
Note: Assuming that James Henry Bourke (born 1820) was the son of George Thew Burke,
then he was baptized into the Catholic church as an adult. This makes sense as his
father was a man of "dual religion" during his lifetime.

George FOGARTY
Hi Al and Ken
It appears that Daniel Fogarty and Catherine O'Grady had one more child
after Simon, which was George. In brief, he classed his next to kin as his
father Daniel in Fallowfield.
George Fogarty, born February 26, 1888 in Fallowfield, son of Daniel Fogarty
who is listed as his next to kin on his enlistment papers for WW1. Georges
registration No. 204523, enlisted in Saskatoon. His present address was the
Yale Hotel, Saskatoon and classed himself as a farmer. On March 21st, 1916
George made his Declaration, swore an Oath before the Majistrate and
Cerified Medically Fit for the Military. George was 28 years, 1 month old
upon entering the Canadian Over-Seas Expeditionary Force, however no
assignment was listed as to his unit. He is described as being 5 feet, 6 1/2
inches tall, Fresh / fair complextion with brown eyes and dark hair. His
religious denomination is listed as Presbyterian. George was single at the
time of entry and a search among the dead of WW1 shows George Fogarty made
it through the war. He possibly returned to Saskatoon, married and raised a
family there.
I also have a James John Fogarty who is the son of William Fogarty in
Montreal who was drafted under the Military Services Act of 1917.
I should not have started this because now I'll be searching for more
Irishmen from Fallowfield who either enlisted or were drafted for the First
World War.
Take care for now

enlisting on November 5th, 1914. His witness was W. R. Ackers. His

From the : Ottawa Citizen

"LATE A.J. FOGARTY
An esteemed citizen has passed in the death of Mr.
Andrew Joynt Fogarty, aged 76 years. The late Mr.
Fogarty had been a resident of Ottawa for the last
thirty-five years. Previous to his coming to Ottawa he
resided at Fallowfield, Ont., where his brother , Mr.
Daniel Fogarty, aged 81, still resides.
He is survived by his widow , three sons,
Daniel and William of Ottawa, and James of New York
City; three daughters,
Mrs. J.J. Dervin , Ottawa,
Miss Bertie of Los Angeles, Cal.,
and Miss Isabel , graduate nurse of Ottawa.
The late Mr. Fogarty was a member of the C.M.B.A.,
St. Vincent de Paul Society, and represented Victoria
Ward on the schoolboard for several years. He was a
man of sterling principles , and had a large number of
sincere friends and admirers, as testified by the
large attendance at his funeral , which took place
Monday morning at eight o'clock at St. Patrick's
church, where a high requiem mass was chanted by Rev.
Father Armstrong.
The funeral then preceded to St. Patrick's church,
Fallowfield, Ont., where Rev. Father McCauley
officiated at the funeral service , which was attended
by aged friends and their descendants some of whom had
come great distances to pay tribute to an esteemed
friend.
The late Mr. Fogarty's ancestors were among the
first settlers of Richmond, Ont., dating back to the
time of the Duke of Wellington's residence there , his
grand uncle , Col. Burke of the Imperial Army , having
come to Canada with his one Hundredth Regiment, for
whom he succeeded in securing grants of land , being
crown land's agent. Later he becale one of Canada's
first members of parliament.
Mr. Fogarty's daughter , Bertie , of Los Angeles,
Cal., and his son , James, of New York , arrived home
on Thursday , and were with their father during his
last moments. A great many floral and spiritual
offerings were received , and many expressions of
sympathy extended the bereaved family from all who had
the pleasure of knowing the late gentleman."

From the registers of Notre Dame Basilica in Ottawa ,Drouin Collection
Married 20 January 1852, Coll McDonnnell, widower, of Bytown, to Mary Emily Burke
of Bytown, daughter of George T. Burke and Lydia Grant.
I would gather that the tombstone erected at plot #172 which reads "erected by their
aunt M.E. McDonell" is Mary Emily Burke, the 2nd wife of Coll McDonell.
His first wife was Elizabeth Young. Their marriage is also registered at Notre Dame,
26 Feb 1837.

I think that Mr. Coll McDonell was a Highland Scot who came to Bytown from
Glengarry County, Upper Canada.
