I am seeking information on Thomas Harris born in Ontario about 1879(April 1). No birth record that I can find. His parents are named on his marriage record as Henry Harris and Annie Charnochan. I am attempting to connect Thomas to Henry Harris who married Annie Churchill Oct. 19 1880 in Claremont. Henry lived in Markham at the time, Annie in Brougham. They are on the 1881 census living in Markham with son Thomas 2 years of age.
If this is the correct family, Thomas was born prior to Henry and Annie marrying. Frank was born about 1882, Louis about 1885 (d. about 1888). Jane, later known as Jennie was born about 1888 and finally Henry b/d Aug.20/21 1892.
As I follow this family through the census/birth/marriage and death records I can connect them all except Thomas. There are many coincidences such as the area of Toronto they all lived in by 1901, Henry died March 1921 living on Eastern Ave. Thomas died May 1921 living on Eastern Ave. Annie (d. Feb 25, 1910), Henry and Jane aka Jennie (d. Aug 14, 1933 married 3 possibly 4 times), are buried in St. John's Norway as is Thomas. Undertaker for all was Washington & Johnson, Queen St. Toronto.
Finally, the death record for Thomas indicates he was born in Brome (could be Brougham, where Annie Churchill was living prior to her marriage). However, the name of his mother on the death record is clearly not Charnochan as it is on his marriage record.
If anyone can shed some light I would appreciate it.
