(Note: if you are a descendent of John Brennan and Mary Rice and would like to compare DNA results, please let me know. I believe he was the brother of my 3rd great-grandfather Pat Brennan.)

They had 6 children that I know of:

1) Margaret, baptised 27 Apr 1837 at St. L's. She was with them in Beckwith, Lanark Co, Ontario in 1851, but that's the last I know of her.
