Hoping this is the Edgar info I'm looking for.

That would be fantastic!

I'm still going around in circles as far as the Ann Edger and her family are concerned..will keep looking

So sorry about the link I thought you were able to access it..I will try to copy it and paste the info here.

Son and I were trying to figure out how this family ended up in the West Indies, and the Irish connection..Father was here yesterday and was very insistent that they were Irish..he also said that Emma was adopted out..my guess is that when Theotiste remarried to Leblanc she was unable to care for her...that's why she was a domestic at 12 yrs living with the Savoy family.

We figured that the ancestors being Irish were indentured slaves in Barabados, with Rueben and James leaving to go to New Brunswick..it makes sense..

I will look into these names,that may be the connection to Rueben, although you seem to have better luck than myself.

Thanks
Cindy
