    Notes:

    John Poole imigrated to Canada, landing at Quebec 23 June 1819

    In Ann's baptismal record he is listed as a cordwainer.
    A cordwainer (/'k??rd?we?n?r/) is a shoemaker who makes new shoes from new leather. The cordwainer's trade can be contrasted with the cobbler's trade, according to a tradition in Britain that restricted cobblers to repairing shoes.

    Many of these families sent members  to Canada, starting in the 1817-1820 time period. They were able to do so because the British government assisted families by paying their passage to Canada, and by setting them up with the essentials of homesteading when they reached Canada. To be considered for such assistance, aspiring emigrants were placed on a list about 1817. Persons on this list were volunteering to be transported to Canada.

    He had a farm and store across the road from the church in Old Ross.

    Ann Poole Tully's obituary suggests that her parents came to Canada with them.
