I have found the 10th child - Michael Ferry Born October 28, 1890 
Died March 23 1891 - Chronic Bronchitis

This is then the information from Mary Ferry (mother) 1911
10 Births - 7 living in 1911.

Still cannot find Anthony/Andrew Ferry abt 1871 

Thank you for all the help

the marriage certificate for Anthony Ferry & Mary McBride 1895 state Spinster & Bachelor.

I think Margaret (Maggie) and Robert might have been illegitimate  I can not find anything close for Margaret 1889 but I found a Robert Mulholland McBride 22 June 1882 I think is Robert.  Mother Mary McBride Smithstone Road Cumbernauld

I have seen the grave markers but all other documents point to a 1870 / 1871 birth. Passenger list for immigration in 1913 says 42 yrs. 1901 census in Scotland says 30 yrs.

I think 1870/71 is the closest.

Thank you
I have the information on Andrew’s family once they arrived in Canada. Andrew died of the Spanish flu in 1918. He worked the mine in Trail, BC.
I will look for the missing child for my records thru the church.

The marriage certificate does state his parents and his birth name could have been Anthony. I know names were often changed or shortened. My grandmother was Catherine McBride but her records all state Kate.

Hugh Ferry also immigrated to USA. Hugh was living with Andrew & Mary in one of the census.

I have not looked at the missing children. Not sure what it is.

Parents. Godfrey Ferry & Mary O’Donnell
9 children Patrick, Mary, Andrew, Michael, Francis, Godfrey, Hugh, Bridget & Alice. I have been able to find birth & death for all children except Andrew. 
Anthony married Mary McBride in Scotland & I have the marriage certificate

The family immigrated to Canada in 1913 from Dunbarton Scotland. One of the children Catherine McBride Ferrie ? was my grandmother.

Any information about Andrew would be welcomed. Thanks

I now have the marriage certificate. 

It states Henry's father as john Fry - corn factor.  No mother.  it looks like a witness was Thomas Fry.

Very difficult to find anything about John Fry and I think his wife Mary. 

Thanks Leslie
