  Married: Parish Marriage Records, Halifax, NS - 1857 to 1873: 23 July 1861 [Page 34]. James Jollymore of John Jollymore and Ann Langil Barrachois, NS. and Mary Ann Reddigan of Richard Reddigan and Catherine Evoy Caplin Bay, Newfoundland. Witnesses: Henry Leverman, Teresa Viger See also: https://ngb.chebucto.org/Parish/oc-halifax-rc-nfld-marriages1830-1900-oc.shtml Census: James (40), a ship's captain, is recorded as being born in Nova Scotia. Mary (36) is also recorded (incorrectly) as being born in Nova Scotia. They had four children, Catherine (8), Agnes (6), Mary (4), and James (2). The family is recorded as being Roman Catholic. It states James was of English decent while Mary's ethnicity was Irish. In this census, the ages of James and "Maryann Jollymoare" are quite different from the 1871 census. James, a sea captain, is recorded as being 57, while Mary Ann is recorded as being 44. Their children at that time were listed as Catherine, a teacher (18), Agnes (16), Mary Ann (13), James (11), Alice (9),and Bessie (7). They were all noted as being born in Nova Scotia, except for the daughter, Mary Ann, who was noted as being born "at sea". Again, Mary Ann (the mother) is recorded incorrectly as being born in Nova Scotia. While her ethnic origin is recorded as Irish, James ethnicity is recorded as being German. Immigration: Mary Ann indicated in the 1900 US Census that she had been in the US for 14 years ( abt. 1886) Census: In the 1900 US Census, the widowed "Mary A. Jollymour" was living with her extended family on Park Avenue in Alameda, California. She stated that she had been born in Sep. 1838 and that she and her family had been in the US for 14 years (abt. 1886). She had two single daughters, Catherine (35) and Elizabeth M. (25) living with her. Her married daughter Alice, with her husband Warren Chandler and their three children, Raymond, Genevieve, and Gertrude were also living there. In addition, Frank LeFevre, husband of her late daughter Mary Ann, and their surviving son, Louis A., were also listed as part of this same household.
