  • Notes 
    • Mary McKeever was the ninth of eleven children born to Hugh McKeever and Mary Quinn. She was born in Newton, Prince Edward Island in 1844 and was thirteen years of age when her father died in 1857. She married John Thomas Mullin from the Kensington area. Based on the date of the birth of their first child, they likely married around 1875 which would leave her in her early thirties.

      John and Mary worked a 150-acre farm outside Kensington on which they raised eight children. One of Mary’s older sisters, Anne McKeever McKenna died in 1876 leaving behind eight children. In the 1881 Census, John and Mary have five children of their own and have two of their sister’s children living with them, Maggie (age 14) and Mary (age 20). They later had another three children. There are no living descendants in this family line.

      It was only Annie, their oldest daughter, who had a family of her own, however, this is where the family line ended as none of Annie’s children had any children of their own. Annie, and her siblings, Peter, Minnie and George remained in PEI. Lena (Angelina) married and settled in Massachusetts. John Jr. spent part of his time in Massachusetts, however he died in Detroit, Michigan. Charles settled in Vancouver, British Columbia, where his brother Isadore joined him before moving to Los Angeles, California, to train as a dentist. Unfortunately, Isidore died shortly after moving there.

      John and Mary were known as successful farmers and attended church at St. Mary’s in Indian River. They were both 74 years of age when they died and they are buried in Indian River. Their farm was inherited by their oldest son, Peter Edwin Mullin.
