Amy Johnson Crow, on her blog No Story Too Small, has challenged her fellow bloggers to post 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks. This is week twenty-six.
My great-great-great grandmother, Charlotte Williams, was born around 1825 in Ireland. Her parents were Robert Williams and Elizabeth Hamilton.
I have not yet determined when exactly the family moved from Ireland to Canada but Charlotte married Thomas Fee on December 5, 1844 in the Protestant Episcopal Church in Ormstown, QC.
By the 1851 census, Thomas (35) and Charlotte (32) are living in St. Malachie, QC. Thomas is listed as an Inn-keeper. Their children are John (7), Robert (5), Thomas (3), and William Reid (1).
The 1861 census finds the family still in St. Malachie but Thomas (40) now is listed as a Trader. Also living with Charlotte (40) and Thomas are their children John (16), Robert (14), William (10), Sarah (8), Charlotte (5) and Maria (1). They live in a frame house.
Somewhere between the 1861 census and 1871 census, the family moved to Montreal. They are found on the 1871 census living in Ste Anne Ward, Montreal. Thomas (53) and Charlotte (50) are living with John (24), Robert (22), William (17), Sarah (15), Andrew (13), Charlotte (11), and Maria (9).
Charlotte passed away in 1876. Her record of burial states
 July 7th, 1876
Charlotte Fee wife of Thomas Fee departed this life on the fifth day of July in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and seventy-six and was interred by me on this the seventh day of the same month and year.

Thomas Fee and Charlotte are my great great grandparents. I would enjoy being in contact with others of her descendants. R. Chris Fee, 801 458 7459, 757 Lava Pointe Dr., St. George, Utah, USA. In 2016, my wife and I visited Banbridge, the town in Ireland where the Charlotte Williams family was from. We have been unable to determine where Thomas Fee was from in Ireland. There is record of a Thomas Fee born in County Longford, but I have been unable to verify that this is our Thomas Fee for certain.
per my information, Charlotte Williams 1819 to 1876-05 is sister to Thomas, Isabella, Sarah, James, William S., (Charlotte), Mary Tate, Hamilton, Robert Alexander, & Andrew. Thomas, I have their father as Robert Williams 1787-1831 and Mother Elizabeth Hamilton 1791-1866. The eldest, Thomas, is my gggrandfather. I have unconfirmed information he was born in Londonderry, Ireland and his siblings up to Hamilton were born in Seapatrick, Banbridge, Ireland. Robert, and Andrew were born in Ormstown, Quebec, Canada.
I do not have documented proof of Irish births yet, just deaths of the majority of the family.
If you have information further back I would be interested. I have decedents of her older brother Thomas down to my grand children.

George
