Note on Marriage

Although no-one has yet linked the main Fitzroy Teevens families as definately brothers, I think this is 99% certain. In the 1851 Census in Ontario the two families were listed together - although the heads of the houses were the women who both "had land" and the men had died.

A close neighbour was John Teevens (married to Mary Anne Commeford). He was born in 1824 in Butlersbridge - the same place as Thomas. A John also travelled with Daniel (and Elizabeth (Mohan)) to Fitzroy. The only reason I haven't 100% named John as a third brother is that he was born in the 1820s and could in theory be Thomas' son.

Finally, Mary Anne Commeford's daughter from her first marriage, Annie Hughes, was married to a Patrick Teevens, born to James Teevens and Mary Rowen. James evidently moved from Ireland to Carleton, and died before 1851. At first I considered the possibility that James was the father of John - but this would have meant that John's step-daughter (Annie Hughes) married John's brother Patrick; and her uncle by marriage. It's far more likely that John and James were brothers.

I am therefore convinced that the four men are all brothers.
