In may of 1998 I called Morrisburg Canada and talked to the land registry office.They told
me they had records of Danial Cryan buying land
in 1855,and of him selling land in 1867 to James
Dorin..This all in the Morrisburg area.(25 acres) The person I was talking to refered me to Lynn Cook of Morrisburg,who had been doing geneology for many years.. I called Lynn,and she gave some very important Info,She informed me that Danial Cryan and family were listed in the 1881 census
of Stormont county--dist. 101-page 57-- south
district of osnabruck--near Dickenson landing Our lady of grace Catholic church would have been where they attended church. Dickenson Landing and the
church cemetery,were displaced because of the St. Lawrence river Hydro prodject. This is how it appears in the 1881 census Osnabruck, Stormont county, Ontario Canada |

(from a church tome and from observation, sometimes the actual birth date is also given in the registers. The normal practice was for the priest to go to the house)------------- MORE CRYAN INFOpage-6 |
