MRS J McGLYNN née MARY ELIZABETH FOREHAN

Mary Elizabeth Forehan was born on 11 November 1870 in West Wawanosh Twp, Huron, Ontario to John Forehan (1841-1917) and Mary Jane Hesson (1841-1933). Mary had seven siblings, William John (1868-1941), Ellen/Helen Margaret (1873-1950), Margaret Jane (1875-1914), Cornelius Joseph (1878-1941), James Ambrose (1879-1881), Harriet T. (1882-1882) and Sarah Catherine (1883-1953).

Mary grew up on the family farm in West Wawanosh. She married James Joseph McGlynn on 31 January 1899 in St Augustine, Huron County. James was born on 5 September 1860 on Concession 1 Lot 12 Culross Twp to James McGlynn (1825-1883) and Bridget Gillespie (1835-1912).
