Hi I'm looking for any info on the Sullivan's or Gushues of Salmon Cove and Cabot Cove Harbor Main District. My Greatgrandfather was Patrick Sullivan born in Salmon Cove around 1830. He married a Rachel Gushue of Bacon Cove. He died in Feb 1893 in a fire along with three of his children. What Iam really interested in is finding some details of the fire. But I keep running into dead ends. The vital statitics records show that they were buried in Salmon Cove. They were Catholic . Does anyone know the name of the cemetery they would most likely be in?? Thanks for any help or leads anyone can give me - And happy hunting with your own family roots.
Ruth

The Salmon Cove referenced in the Vital Statistics is actually Avondale. The name was changed January 1898. There have been a number of transcriptions of the cemeteries in Avondale but none of them show the Sullivans you're looking for, so it's likely that the grave markers have been lost over time.
