Hello,

I am looking for information on my grandmother and grandfather's families. My grandmother's name is Gertrude Mary Ezekiel and she was born December 12, 1905 in Harbour Main, Newfoundland to Michael & Anna (Hawco) Ezekiel. She had 2 brothers, Christopher & Joseph. In 1935, Joseph caught a giant squid (his photo is on this website). My grandfather's name is Thomas Griffin and he was born November 29, 1907 in Knights Cove, Newfoundland to John & Mary (Nolan) Griffin.

Gertrude arrived in New York in 1927 and in 1931 her and Thomas were married. They had 4 children...Thomas, Donald, Rosemarie and Kevin.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

I checked the Parish records for St. Peter and Paul Harbour Main. Gertrude had another brother Paul born and baptised Nov 8 1908, probably died as a child.

I found Michael and Ann Ezekiel in the 1921 census for Harbour Main. Michael would be the son of Paul Ezekiel and Lucy Gorman. This is Michaels parents and siblings from the parish records:


M 59 01/22/1877 Paul Isakel Hr. Main Lucy Gorman Stephen Hickey Mary J. Woodford

B 147 10/11/1877 Peter Ezekiel Paul Ezekiel Hr. Main Lucy Gorman Patrick Ezekiel Teresa Driscoll sub. Cond.
B 118 09/18/1879 Patrick Ezekiel Paul Ezekiel Hr. Main Lucy Gorman James Ezekiel Ellen Ezekiel
B 175 11/27/1881 Michael Ezekiel Paul Ezekiel Hr. Main Lucy Gorman Patrick Mullowney Sarah Ezekiel
B 183 10/23/1883 Gertrude Mary Ezekiel Paul Ezekiel Hr. Main Lucy Gorman Patrick Brick Hanora Cleary
B 51 09/20/1886 09/20/1886 William Ezekiel Paul Ezekiel Hr. Main Lucy Gorman John Merner Bridget Cleary
B 17 03/09/1889 03/09/1889 Mary Gertrude Ezekiel Paul Ezekiel Hr. Main Louisa Gorman Simon Cleary Bridget Ezekiel
B 18 05/08/1891 05/05/1891 Joseph Ezekiel Paul Ezekiel Hr Main Lucy Gorman Edward Hannan Elizabeth Kennedy

I was able to find Paul Ezekiels parents and siblings as well :


M 3 10/31/1858 Michael Ezekiel Hr. Main Bridget McDonald No witness's listed

B 91 09/13/1859 Mary Joseph Ezekiel Michael Ezekiel Holyrood Bridget McDonnell John Fury Bridget Cleary
B 96 09/27/1861 Peter Ezekiel Michael Ezekiel Holyrood Bridget McDonnell Philip Penny Elizabeth Williams
B 68 08/10/1864 Catherine Ezekiel Michael Ezekiel Holyrood Bridget McDonnell Edward Murray Margaret Tubrid
B 31 03/25/1867 Paul Ezekiel Michael Ezekiel Holyrood Bridget McDonald John Deady Mary Penny
B 40 04/18/1871 Mark Isakel Michael Isakel Holyrood Bridget McDonnell Thomas Pennel Sarah Healy
B 113 10/18/1873 Michael Ezekiel Michael Ezekiel Holyrood Bridget McDonald John Williams Sarah Healy
B 139 10/02/1876 Bridget Ezekiel Michael Ezekiel Hr. Main Bridget McDonald Thomas Williams Ellen Tubrid

I'mm interested in a lot of the names as well particularly Ezekiel and Gorman.

I guess I was wrong about Paul Ezekiels parents and siblings. Read the dates wrong. Sorry.
