We have added a few new names to our Montreal - St. Columban connection page. On the main page you click on marriages and then on Montreal connections to find this information.

These are generally Montreal Parish births; deaths or marriages that relate to St. Columban residents. Thanks to Shelia, we are starting to add new additions from the Parish of St. Anthony's in Montreal. These particular additions involve families such as [highlight]Funchion; McLaughlin; Casey; Keyes; O'Rourke etc.[/highlight] Visit this page regularly.

And even more Montreal - St. Columban Connections thanks again to Shelia.......


St. Patrick's, Montreal, Feb. 1 1887, M9
[highlight]Edward Brophy[/highlight], saloon keeper, son of dec. Lawrence Brophy and Margaret Elliott of St. Columba (sic) to: [highlight]Ellen Keyes [/highlight]of this parish Andrew Keyes and Bridget Ryan of St. Columba (sic) Wit: Andrew Keyes, father of the bride and of Michael Francis Nugent

(A small funny story that my father told me about Edward Brophy, the Saloon Keeper. Apparently at some point a couple of gangsters visited him one day and leaned on him under some protection racket deal. Edward told him that it was actually a family owned business and if they expected any money, they would have to visit the next night and discuss it with the direct family members. Of course, they didn't realize that with the Brophy family; the Keyes family etc., etc there were at least 100 immediate "family members" all directly related to Edward. When the gangsters appeared the following night all the Brophy brothers; their sons; and nephews (including my father); in-laws etc.etc. were waiting. Needless to say, these relatives convinced the gangsters that it was probably not in their best interest to try to offer protection to Edward - Not sure of the actual truth of all the details but an interesting and funny story anyway...
