unnamed_wife Saunders

Abt 1780 - 1858  (~ 78 years)

• Name	unnamed_wife Saunders
  	A thorough search of surviving records failed to uncover any references to the name, origin, and religious affiliation of Robert Saunders' wife. We know that Robert's religious affiliation was Church of England, however, I suspect (but cannot prove) that his wife was Roman Catholic. My research of their children's spouses indicate that they were all Roman Catholic, hence none of Robert's grandchildren appear in the Church of England baptism, marriage or burial records at Ferryland or elsewhere.

  Family	Robert Saunders,   b. Abt 1782, Ferryland, Newfoundland ,   d. 10 May 1858, Aquaforte, Newfoundland  (Age ~ 76 years)
  Married	abt. 1806	Ferryland, Newfoundland   [1]
  Type: mixed marriage?
  Based on the age (75 yrs.) of their eldest daughter, Ann (Condon), who died in Oct. 1882, it would appear that Robert's marriage was about 1806. Robert's religious affiliation was Church of England, however I suspect (but cannot prove) that his wife was Roman Catholic. My research of their children's spouses indicate that they were all Roman Catholic, hence none of Robert's grandchildren appear in the Church of England baptism records at Ferryland or elsewhere.
