    Enid noted that the daughter married to Ron Courage was Elizabeth and the brother and sister were "Mikey Tom" and Elizabeth Hanlon. Since there is mention only of one brother and one sister, (as identifed), other siblings Bridget and Thomas must have been deceased by this time.

    Notes:

    Michael Ryan was a man of many ages. His age varied considerably in each Newfoundland census. In the 1921 Newfoundland Census, it is indicated that he was born in May 1873 and 48 years old on his last birthday. In 1935, his age is recorded as 69, indicating that he was born about 1865/1866, however in 1945, ten years later, his age is given as 73 indicating that he was born about 1871/1872. His death notice says he was 84 years old when he died in March 1954, indicating a birth year of 1869/ assuming he would have been 85 in May of that year. The baptisms for Ferryland parish survive from late 1870, and there is no record of his birth recorded in the surviving records.

    Notes:

    Newfoundland Census 1921: District of St. John's West, Ward 2, Section from Patrick's St., West

    This couple were living on Patrick St. The transcribed dates of their births and ages don't make sense; 184? looks like they should be 187?. Michael was likely 48 or 49. I also have indications that the original census documents indicate that Mary Hanlon was adopted.
