Notes for PETER AHEARN: – A Peter Ahearn (bc. 1775) was listed as a neighbor on James P[W]helan's 1833 lease of a farm in Kildare. He would have to have been old enough to have been the Peter who fathered Margaret in 1813 (bp. 1814 at St Augustine’s, Rustico). Most of the children in this family can be identified as those of Peter and Mary Quinahan. This Peter’s other children could be; Nicholas (bc. 1809) who married Catherine Fitzgerald. Their first [?] daughter Mary was born in 1838, so Nicholas must have been born in 1818 or before and could have been a son or grandson. (There is a gravestone in Saint Simon Saint Jude cemetery in Tignish for a Nicholas Ahearn who died on 4-4-1871 Ae. 62, which is probably that of this Nicholas.) John who married Sophia McInnis in 1853, Mary-Ann who married Sophia’s brother John in 1853. Bridget who was born in 1821 according to Immaculate Conception Parish records was married to Francis McKenna. More About PETER AHEARN: Fact 1: 13 Dec 1813, Rustico dau Margaret baptised 9-20-1814
