Description: Seeking parentage of Mark Bailey b. about 1850, Freshwater/English Harbour m Ann Day, daughter of Benjamin Day and Elizabeth Penny of Salmon Cove. Benjamin's parents - Thomas Day and Joan Stivey of Salmon Cove; Thomas's parents - John Day (d. 1771) and Mary ? Any information on the Bailey line and additional connections to the Day, Penny and Stivey lines would be appreciated. Stivey line originally appears to be from Devon and Cornwall, England. Many Penny families around Salmon Cove/Freshwater/English Harbour. Mark and Ann (Day) Bailey had a son, Walter Bailey who was orphaned in 1881. Also a brother Thomas who died in infancy and a sister Elizabeth (Lizzie Bailey Jure). Walter and Lizzie both came to British Columbia in the early 20th century. Walter married Emma Hood of Bay Roberts in 1906 in New Westminster, B.C. Emma's father was Charles Hood who died in Bay Roberts in 1906. Emma's nephew, Victor Cave, and his family were in Bay Roberts in 1976.
Again, any additional information would be appreciated.
Steve Bailey, Grandson of Walter and Emma.

They had George in 1809 and Richard in 1813. I have no information on
their spouses or children - except that Richard’s Daughter Sarah married William
Clothier at Rencontre in 1857.
Other children of George and Sarah were:
John b. 1817 (m. Ann _____ 1821-1880)
Mary b. 1818
Ann b. 1812
Rachel b. 1799 m. J. Mason
Susannah b.1807 m. J Childs
Esther b. 1811 m. Thomas Durnford
There are other Ball families of Rencontre that I cannot link back to John
so I am assuming they are from either of his brothers lines. These families
are of Abraham and Rosanna (Rose) Ball who married abt 1845. Reuben and
Elizabeth who married abt the same time.
Abraham who was born 1846 and was married to Mary Blakes.
Richard who was married to Hannah Marie Fudge in 1872. Seems they are the
heads of the Richard’s Hr Balls.

This info was listed in the 1921 census , Maggie was a widow then so there could be more children born between 1873 and her husband's death.
I can't find this family anywhere before 1921. I can only assume that when widowed the mother brought her children home to her family or she moved with her grown children.

Description:In Point Verde Greenes, my GGG-GF,John Greene(or John Green) had a daughter MARIA GREENE (born during 1790s),who married JAMES BRADSHAW of Placentia Bradshaws. But I have no further information. Could any Bradshaw share some family information with me. I know there were both an Anglican and an RC branch of the Placentia Bradshaws,but all are the same actual family. All Bradshaw information is welcome as it will eventually link up somewhere. Since they are connected to the Greenes,I have 123 pages of Greene family tree and happy to exchange information. Thanks. Ward
