Further to my earlier posting concerning the family of James Kerruish and his wife Elizabeth Tate, I now think they might have lived in Foxdale, since my Grandfather, Eli's birth certificate states him place of birth as Foxdale Patrick 1886. His father James is described as a miner and I know Elizabeth was born in 1856. Eli's siblings were Harold, Hubert James Meta Hilda Ida and Carl but not all survived. However, I cannot find any records for this family and was wondering if anyone could check the census for me?
Most of the family emigrated to the states in 1918, first to the Arizona lead mines and then to Vancouver which is where I beleive James and Elizabeth eventually died.
