  • Notes 
    • The families for Henry J McQuigg who married Margaret Houlhan and Henry J McQuigg who married Margaret Ross are forever getting confused. I believe that I have done a decent job of sorting the two families out.

      This Henry McQuigg was committed to Kingston Insane Asylum on 10 Dec 1886 at the age of 47. He was admitted by his wife, Margaret and the committal was enforced by the the “Law” He repeated saw and spoke to the devil and had other visions. He was a cruel looking man although he was clean, tidy, orderly, and peaceful. He died in the asylum on 18 Jan 1897 of heart disease.
