Searching for Greens at the Time of Peter Robinson
Searching for Greens at the Time of Peter Robinson By Alison Hare, CG Language that appears precise and transparent can actually mask meaning. Unlocking the truth in perplexing documents requires scrupulous attention to the full range of genealogical standards. wo references to a son, two distinct clues to his identity. John Green's petition for land in Upper Canada's Huntley Township was bursting with genealogical promise. Clearly worded and legibly penned, it plantedT a figurative finger firmly on the map, marking the spot where the son would be found. Auguring equally well foran open-and-shut identification, the petition disclosed that John's son had immigrated to Canada with a well-known and well-documented group of settlers. The petition's failure to mention the son's name seemed a minor inconvenience. Thus begins a memorable lesson about how historical documents can mislead and baffle researchers, especially when they fail to probe deeply. THE PROBLEM The scene is set "at the time" of the Peter Robinson settlers. 1 Brought to Canada fromCounty Cork, Ireland, in 1823, these571 men, women, and children have been known ever since by the name of the official who supervised their relocation. Acting for the British government, the Honorable Peter Robinson 2 arranged free passage, provisions, and land for the settlers. The liberally funded program offered escape from poverty, famine, and civil disturbances in Ireland. Though he wanted to, John Green was unable to accompany the group. "His son," however, came out "at that time" to Canada. John later immigrated on his own and on 9 July 1836 petitioned to purchase one hundred acres ofland in Huntley Township, a property of interest to him because it lay "in the immediate vicinity of his sons location."3 What was the son's name? © Alison Hare, co; 80 Valley Ridge Street, Ottawa, Ontario, K2E 7W4; [email protected]. -
