Hi my name is Josephine Patafio. I am from FLeur de Lys, NF but I am now residing in Vaughan Ontario.
I am looking for any information regarding my grandmothers family. Her name is Ann Gushue who married Stephen John Lewis of Fleur de LYs.
Her father is John Gushue from Conception Hr. John Gushue came to Fleur de LYs with his two sisters: Elizabeth and Agnes. John married Elizabeth Edison (Hedderson). Later John brought a MIcheal Gushue there as well. Not sure of what relation he is to John. Elizabeth married a Thomas Walsh and Agnes married a Thomas Ezekiel.

Hi Josephine,
My name is Julia Bailey and I am from Coachman's Cove. I have some information on the Gushue's but it is different from yours.
