  • The Horan Family Diaspora Since Leaving Ireland 191 Years Ago
    A Genealogical Report on the Descendants of Michael Horan and Mary Minnock by A.L. McDevitt Introduction The purpose of this report is to identify the descendants of Michael Horan and Mary Minnock While few Horans live in the original settlement locations, there are still many people from the surrounding areas of Caledon, and Simcoe County, Ontario who have Horan blood. Though heavily weigh toward information on the Albion Township Horans, (the descendants of William Horan and Honorah Shore), I'm including more on the other branches as information comes in. That is the descendants of the Horans that moved to Grey County, Ontario and from there to Michigan and Wisconsin and Montana. I also have some information on the Horans that moved to Western Canada. This report was done using Family Tree Maker 2012. The Genealogical sites I used the most were Ancestry.ca, Family Search.com and Automatic Genealogy. While gathering information for this report I became aware of the importance of getting this family's story written down while there were still people around who had a connection with the past. In the course of researching, I became aware of some differences in the original settlement stories. I am including these alternate versions of events in this report, though I may be personally skeptical of the validity of some of the facts presented. All families have myths. I feel the dates presented in the Land Petitions of Mary Minnock and the baptisms in the County Offaly, Ireland, Rahan Parish registers speak for themselves. Though not a professional Genealogist, I have the obligation to not mislead other researchers.

John R. Smith [123935]1 was born on 28 Oct 1808 in Sandy Lake, New York, USA2 and died on 9 Sep 1883 in Sumpter, Wayne, Michigan, USA3 at age 74. The cause of his death was old age.3 General Notes: Possibly: SMITH, J. R., farmer, Parish, b. Oswego, N.Y., s 1808, p.o. add. Parish (probably not as there is a James R. Smith that matches this description and has a different wife) There is a John Smith living next-door to John Thurston in Vernon, Oneida, New York and has one son living with him age 16+ (which would be a couple of years off from John). However, the proximity to the Thurston family makes it a good chance that this is John R. Smith's father. If that's the case, then John R. Smith's father is also a John Smith, who was 45+ in 1820 so would be born before 1775. Son Francis' death certificate: Says he was born in New York City There is a Sandy Creek in Oswego County, not a Sandy Lake.

  • Xerox University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of die original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the documant photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s} or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

DESCRIPTORS *Change Strategies; *Drug Abuse; *Drug Education; Drug Legislation; Parent Responsibility; *Prevention; Social Action; *Social Problems; *Substance Abuse; Values ABSTRACT The first section of this conference report on a drug-free America presents an overview addressing three areas: the scope of the drug problem in the United States; its evolution; and some proposed solutions. In the second section, recommendations for action are made for prevention of drug abuse that may be achieved through multiple strategies that address the unique characteristics, cultural diversity and structure found in each community in America. The point is made that prevention must be comprehensive, involving all systems (educational, medical, law :nforcement, religious, family, business, etc.), and each community must have a specific plan of action. Examples of programs are given at the end of each chapter. The appendices include a summary of recommendations as well as lists of 400 resource organizations and reading and audio/visual materials for students, teachers, parents, and health professionals (27 items).
