• Notes

  Malcolm McQuaig’s father’s name was Henry McQuaig, he was born in the Highlands of Scotland near the coast. His father was well off, was a farmer, and had houses rented too, and had nice ponies and brought some of them over to Ireland to his son Henry, as Henry moved over to Ireland when he was quite young and Henry was a farmer in Ireland, besides Malcolm; Henry had a son John and a daughter whose name was Catherine, and when Malcolm came to Canada two of his sons Robert and Henry stayed in Ireland for three years after with their Uncle John and Aunt Catherine who never married and lived on the old home place of their father’s, that is of Henry’s. Then in 1850 Malcolm’s two sons Henry and Robert crossed the ocean to Canada too. The grandfather Henry’s wife’s maiden name ws McCauley. [1 - 2] Repository : Public Record Office for Northern Ireland PRONI Reference : D668/R/40/6 Level : Item Access : Open Title : Lease for 7 yrs, life of Right Rev. Nathaniel ... Dates : 1 February 1822 Description : Lease for 7 yrs, life of Right Rev. Nathaniel Lord Bishop of Down and Connor at rent of £15.16. 0 per year, concerning Rt Hon. Wm Lord Beresford, Sir George Fitzgerald Hill, Sir John Poe Beresford and Henry McQuig, Culcrow, Agivey, and relating to land at Culcrow, 4 acres 1 rood 30 perches and at Clomback (GLENBACK??), 9 acres 2 roods. In the 1831 Irish Census there was a Henry Quigg in Bovagh Townland, Agahdowey, Londonderry, Northern Ireland with a family of 6 males and 2 females. Also in the 1831 Irish Census there is a Henry Quigg living in Culcrow Townland, Agivey, Londonderry, Northern Ireland with a family of 4 males and 3 females. When Henry died is the question. James Malcolm left home in 1847 for Canada and left behind his two sons in the care of his brother, John, and sister, Catherine, in the home of his father. In 1850, John marries and his two oldest sons join him in Canada. There I am going to presume from the family history that Henry died in 1847.
