About 1848, Myles McCanna (1810?-1879) and his wife, Bridget McDevit (1849-1890) emigrated from Ireland (possibly Waterford) to Canada with four children: Elizabeth (12/29/1837), James S. (1842), Mary Ann Lavina (8/1/1844), and Michael Bernard (1849). They settled in the "Queen's Bush" area of Ontario until 1868. Three more children were born to them there: Bridgette (1854), '''Katherine Bridgette "Madge"''' (1856), and '''Margaret Jane "Bridget"''' (3/1858). | About 1848, Myles McCanna (1810?-1879) and his wife, Bridget McDevit (1849-1890) emigrated from Ireland (possibly Waterford) to Canada with four children: Elizabeth (12/29/1837), James S.
