• Notes

  White, Mary: The McKnights came from County Down, Ireland, in the early 1830's on the same ship with the Whites of South Monaghan, and the Wrights. A grandson, Dr. John Wright, was a well,known and respected doctor for many years in Millbrook and father of Allan Wright of Cavan Township at Bailieboro. Mrs. Clarence Ball (Ula White) is a descendent of the Whites. It took nine weeks under sail to make the trip from Ireland. Mary White was seasick all the way over. When the river narrowed the ship was towed up the St. Lawrence River to Montreal by oxen. The Wrights settled in Hope Township, the Whites in South Monaghan and the McKnights in Cavan Township. Robert James McKnight married Mary White. He died in 1894 and she died in 1918 aged 88. They first settled in South Monaghan but soon moved to Lot 14, Cone. 6, Cavan Township.
